ok, here is what I want to do:
I am writing a brand new PC which needs some other PETSc objects like a
Vec (for unit partition).
We have a text based user file format in which the user can create
arbitrary Petsc's Vec or Mat.
Then, I would like the user to give the prefix of these Vec or Mat as a
parameter for the new PC that we would like to configure completely via
the "petsc options database".
So in our PCApply_XXX we would like to retrieve some specific options
which will simply give the Vec prefix to retreive.
Thanks,
Eric

Hi,
Is it possible with PETSc's API to query an objet by it's name?
Is there a "global" database with all PETScObject created?
No, we do not store that information. What would the use case be?
Maybe there is another way to do it.
Thanks,
Matt

their experiments lead.
