PetscViewerSocketOpen

 Opens a connection to a Matlab or other socket based server.

Synopsis

int PetscViewerSocketOpen(MPI_Comm comm,const char machine[],int port,PetscViewer *lab)
Collective on MPI_Comm

Input Parameters

comm - the MPI communicator
machine - the machine the server is running on
port - the port to connect to, use PETSC_DEFAULT for the default

Output Parameter

lab -a context to use when communicating with the server

Notes

Most users should employ the following commands to access the Matlab PetscViewers 


   PetscViewerSocketOpen(MPI_Comm comm, char *machine,int port,PetscViewer &viewer)



   MatView(Mat matrix,PetscViewer viewer)





               or





   PetscViewerSocketOpen(MPI_Comm comm,char *machine,int port,PetscViewer &viewer)



   VecView(Vec vector,PetscViewer viewer)





Options Database Keys

For use with the default Matlab PetscViewer, PETSC_VIEWER_SOCKET_WORLD, PETSC_VIEWER_SOCKET_SELF,
PETSC_VIEWER_SOCKET_() or if
PETSC_NULL is passed for machine or PETSC_DEFAULT is passed for port

   -viewer_socket_machine <machine>



   -viewer_socket_port <port>





Environmental variables



Currently the only socket client available is Matlab. See
src/dm/da/examples/tests/ex12.c and ex12.m for an example of usage.
