# VecGetArrayF90

Accesses a vector array from Fortran90. For default PETSc vectors, VecGetArrayF90() returns a pointer to the local data array. Otherwise, this routine is implementation dependent. You MUST call VecRestoreArrayF90() when you no longer need access to the array.

### Synopsis

    VecGetArrayF90(Vec x,{Scalar, pointer :: xx_v(:)},integer ierr)

Not Collective

### Input Parameter

x -vector

### Output Parameters

| xx_v | - the Fortran90 pointer to the array
| ierr | - error code

### Example of Usage

        PetscScalar, pointer :: xx_v(:)
        ....
        call VecGetArrayF90(x,xx_v,ierr)
        a = xx_v(3)
        call VecRestoreArrayF90(x,xx_v,ierr)

### Notes

Not yet supported for all F90 compilers
