Hi Matt and Jed,

Thank you very much for your replies. In source code ex19, the routine SNESSetNGS() is used, and no other options or Jacobi routines are used. How can we change the iteration method? The routine SNESSetFromOptions(snes) could do this for the user? If I understand correctly, petsc would use Gauss-Seidel or Jacobi method as designated with even the same source code?
Yes, and this applies for other objects as well. The important thing, in general, is to call XXXSetFromOptions after you have set any default options with XXXSetYYY, but before you call XXXSetUp (which does things like allocate memory). This allows you to set whichever defaults make sense, and also control things from the command line.

Thank you in advance!

    ex19 does whatever you want: -pc_type jacobi and the like.
