This came about when I introduced the PetscOptions object, but kept it hidden from the source code with a series of macros. Eventually we'll decide to either 1) make the PetscOptions object part of the public API or 2) leave it private and then convert the manual pages to use the /*MC format with Synopsis providing the API Barry Note that this PetscOptions object is NOT a reference to the options database, it is just an encapsulation of all the handling of PetscOptionsXXX() at a particular place in the code to avoid any use of global variables. > > Matt > > Mark > > > > -- > What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their experiments > is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their experiments > lead. > -- Norbert Wiener
