[petsc-users] Integrate command line arguments -bv_type vecs -bv_type mat to python code

[Jose E. Roman]

You could just do

  E.getBV().setType(SLEPc.BV.Type.VECS)

before E.setFromOptions()

On advice here in the forum I always added -bv_type vecs -bv_type mat to the command line, what solved my problems. I don't always want to execute these two commands on the command line, but I want to define them directly in the python code before E.solve() is called. However, I'm not quite sure how to call these functions correctly in Python.
