# SNESLineSearchShellSetApply

Sets the apply function for the `SNESLINESEARCHSHELL` implementation.

## Synopsis

    PetscErrorCode SNESLineSearchShellSetApply(SNESLineSearch linesearch, SNESLineSearchShellApplyFn *func, void *ctx)

Not Collective

## Input Parameters

- linesearch - `SNESLineSearch` context

- func - function implementing the linesearch shell, see `SNESLineSearchShellApplyFn` for calling sequence

- ctx - context for func

Usage:

      PetscErrorCode shellfunc(SNESLineSearch linesearch,void * ctx)
      {
         Vec  X,Y,F,W,G;
         SNES snes;

         PetscFunctionBegin;
         PetscCall(SNESLineSearchGetSNES(linesearch,&snes));
         PetscCall(SNESLineSearchSetReason(linesearch,SNES_LINESEARCH_SUCCEEDED));
         PetscCall(SNESLineSearchGetVecs(linesearch,&X,&F,&Y,&W,&G));
         // determine lambda using W and G as work vecs..
         PetscCall(VecAXPY(X,-lambda,Y));
         PetscCall(SNESComputeFunction(snes,X,F));
         PetscCall(SNESLineSearchComputeNorms(linesearch));
         PetscFunctionReturn(PETSC_SUCCESS);
      }

      PetscCall(SNESGetLineSearch(snes, &linesearch));
      PetscCall(SNESLineSearchSetType(linesearch, SNESLINESEARCHSHELL));
      PetscCall(SNESLineSearchShellSetApply(linesearch, shellfunc, NULL));
