What about requiring that it is either of length zero or of correct size. Would that break anything? -- Anders -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DOLFIN Team, which is subscribed to DOLFIN. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/732543 Title: No error when attempting to solve using wrong dimensions Status in DOLFIN: New Bug description: Calling solve with a vector of non-matching dimensions does not produce an error. Something mysterious happens instead. Reproduce with below code. from dolfin import * mesh = UnitSquare(2, 2) V = FunctionSpace(mesh, "CG", 1) Q = FunctionSpace(mesh, "CG", 1) W = V * Q y = TrialFunction(W) w = TestFunction(W) a = inner(y, w)*dx L = w[0]*dx A = assemble(a) b = assemble(L) y = Function(W) info(A) info(b) u = Function(V) info(u.vector()) solve(A, u.vector(), b) info(u.vector()) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dolfin Post to : dolfin@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dolfin More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
