[Trilinos-Users] reading nonlocal entries of a Epetra_FECrsMatrix ?? possible ?

[Michael A Heroux]

Epetra provide import and export capabilities to replicate data from other
processors.  If you need specific rows of a matrix on a particular
processor, you can form an Epetra_Map (call it importMap) containing the
global IDs of rows you need, then create an Epetra_Import object using
importMap as the targetMap and the rowMap of your matrix as the sourceMap.
Then create a new matrix (call it importMatrix) with importMap as the
rowMap.  Finally, perform the import and do FillComplete

Here is a code sketch (not guaranteed to be perfect, but close)

 Create STL int vector called importGIDs with global IDs of rows you need.

Then:

 Epetra_Map importMap(-1, &importGIDs[0], 0, comm);
 Epetra_Import importer(importMap, matrix.RowMap());
 Epetra_CrsMatrix importMatrix(Copy, importMap, 0);
 importMatrix.Import(matrix, importer, Add);
 importMatrix.FillComplete();

At this point, importMatrix has the rows you specified in the importGIDs
vector.
