[petsc-dev] PetscViewerBinaryMatlabOpen() being removed

[Barry Smith]

  Ethan and Richard,

   Well over a decade late I have refactored your PetscViewerBinaryMatlabOpen() code to embed it in the standard PETSc binary viewer so it doesn't introduce nonstandard paradigms into PETSc. Could you please test it out in petsc-dev to find all the bugs I have introduced?

   To get the effect you just call PetscViewerBinaryOpen() followed by PetscViewerSetFormat(viewer,PETSC_FORMAT_BINARY_MATLAB); the names of the variables are obtained by the names of the PETSc objects which may be set with PetscObjectSetName().

    Thanks

   Barry
