How to copy global data to local ?

[ming zhu]

OK. I am now use MatGetSubMatrix.My code is as follows

  PetscMalloc(n*sizeof(PetscInt),&indices);  
  for (j = 0; j < n; j++)
  {   
      indices[j] = j; 
  } 
  ISCreateGeneral(PETSC_COMM_SELF,n,indices,&iy); // get all columns 
 ....

   PetscMalloc(2*sizeof(PetscInt),&indices);  
    indices[0] = i;
    indices[1] = j;
    ISCreateGeneral(PETSC_COMM_SELF,2,indices,&ix);     // only get i,j rows

    Mat ui,uj; 
// I am not sure how to set the third parameter : how many "local " columns.. Since I want all columns, I set it to n
     ierr = MatGetSubMatrix(U,ix,iy,n, MAT_INITIAL_MATRIX,&ui);CHKERRQ(ierr);

What I really hope is to 
     
    for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
                PetscInt row = 0;
          MatGetValues(ui,1,&row,1,&i,&u_ik);
}
It does not work. I tried to change the n to PETSC_DECIDE, it still does not work

So, I really doubt that whether I can get the entire row of the matrix.

BTW, the matrix is created as follows:
 MatCreateMPIDense(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,PETSC_DECIDE,PETSC_DECIDE,m,n,PETSC_NULL,&U)

THank you

   Don't know what MatGetSubMatrixRaw() is, but based on the calling sequence you are asking for the ith row whatever that is, and n columns in the array indices

   For MatGetSubMatrix() each process can ask for any rows it wants, but all the processors have to ask for the same columns that are wanted.

For example, if U is 4*4, and there are 4 processors, processors one has local matrix 2*2, but i need the third row, Then,MatGetSubmatrix() may not work

I was trying to use a vector filter (like, 00000010000). However, if the vector is PETSC_COMM_WORLD, it will be changed by different processor. So, how to make it ?
