[petsc-users] Complex vector / matrix to VTK

Hello,

I want to print vector / matrix to VTK file.

I am running simple tutorial example ex15.c, but since I have compiled 
PETSc with complex scalars (I need them for my program) I get an error 
below. Can I force PETSc to print only real, imaginary (or both) part(s) 
of the solution?

Another question - ksp/ex42.c explicitly writes header information to 
VTK file while snes/ex15.c has only one line - to open VTK file. How 
these two examples are different in terms of writing output to VTK?
src/ksp/ksp/examples/tutorials/ex42.c 
<http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/src/ksp/ksp/examples/tutorials/ex42.c.html>
src/snes/examples/tutorials/ex15.c 
<http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/src/snes/examples/tutorials/ex15.c.html>

Thanks!
Juris
