# PetscStackPrint

Prints a given PETSc stack to an ASCII file

## Synopsis

    #include "petscsys.h"
    PetscErrorCode PetscStackPrint(PetscStack *sint, FILE *fp)

Not Collective

## Input Parameters

- sint - the PETSc stack to print

- fp - the file pointer

## Notes

In debug mode PETSc maintains a stack of the current function calls that can be used to help to quickly see where a problem has occurred, for example, when a signal is received. It is recommended to use the debugger if extensive information is needed to help debug the problem.

The default stack is a global variable called `petscstack`.

## Developer Note

`PetscStackPrint()` and `PetscStackView()` should be merged into a single API.
