PetscTrValid

Test the memory for corruption. This can be used to check for memory overwrites.

Synopsis

#include "petsc.h" 
int PetscTrValid(int line,const char function[],const char file[],const char dir[])

Input Parameter

line - line number where call originated.
function - name of function calling
file - file where function is
dir - directory where function is

Return value

The number of errors detected.

Output Effect

Error messages are written to stdout.

Notes

You should generally use CHKMEMQ or CHKMEMA as a short cut for calling this routine.

The line, function, file and dir are given by the C preprocessor as __LINE__, __FUNC__, __FILE__, and __DIR__

The Fortran calling sequence is simply PetscTrValid(ierr)

No output is generated if there are no problems detected.
