[petsc-users] Setting step acceptance criteria and/or domain validity using TS module

Ok, it seems if I set the domain error from the rhs function, it will
indeed fail and backtrack. I hope that is what was intended?

I tried before to set it in the PostStep function, but I couldn't get the
current solution from there, SNESGetSolution returns an empty vector.

Cheers,

Pierre
