    Hi,

    Inside my subroutine, I need to access the DA variable
    cu_types_array frequently.

    So I need to call DMDAVecGetArrayF90 and DMDAVecRestoreArrayF90
    before and after frequently.

    Is this necessary? Can I call DMDAVecGetArrayF90 at the start and
    only call DMDAVecRestoreArrayF90 towards the end, where I don't
    need to modify the values of cu_types_array anymore?

    Will this cause memory corruption?


You cannot use any other vector operations before you have called Restore.

Hi,

What do you mean by vector operations? I will just be doing some maths operation to change the values in cu_types_array. Is that fine?

    Also, must the array be restored using DMDAVecRestoreArrayF90
    before calling DMLocalToLocalBegin,DMLocalToLocalEnd?


Yes.
