[petsc-users] VTKViewer with petsc4py

[Blaise Bourdin]

Hi,

Is PetscViewerSetFormat implemented in petsc4py (I am using petsc-3.1-p3 and petsc4py-1.1)? I am trying to save a DA and Vec in vtk format, but can't figure out the python equivalent to 
PetscViewerSetFormat(VTKViewer,PETSC_VIEWER_ASCII_VTK).

My C code would be 
  ierr = PetscViewerCreate(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,&VTKViewer);CHKERRQ(ierr);
  ierr = PetscViewerSetType(VTKViewer,PETSC_VIEWER_ASCII);CHKERRQ(ierr);
  ierr = PetscViewerFileSetName(VTKViewer,filename);CHKERRQ(ierr);
  ierr = PetscViewerSetFormat(VTKViewer,PETSC_VIEWER_ASCII_VTK);CHKERRQ(ierr);

  ierr = DAView(da,VTKViewer);CHKERRQ(ierr);
  ierr = VecView(U,VTKViewer);CHKERRQ(ierr);

What would be the python equivalent?

Thanks
Blaise
