Detailed Description

The LibMeshInit class, when constructed, initializes the dependent libraries (e.g. MPI or PETSC) and does the command line parsing needed by libMesh. The LibMeshInit destructor closes those libraries properly.

For most users, a single LibMeshInit object should be created at the start of your main() function. This object replaces the previous libMesh::init()/libMeshclose() methods, which are now deprecated.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

libMesh::LibMeshInit::LibMeshInit	(	int &	argc,
		char **&	argv,
		MPI_Comm	COMM_WORLD_IN = MPI_COMM_WORLD
	)

Initialize the library for use, with the command line options provided. This will e.g. call PetscInitialize if PETSC is available. You must create a LibMeshInit object before using any of the library functionality. This method may take an optional parameter to use a user-specified MPI communicator.
