# MatMFFDSetCheckh
Sets a function that checks the computed h and adjusts it to satisfy some criteria for the `MATMFFD` matrix 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscmat.h"   
PetscErrorCode MatMFFDSetCheckh(Mat J, PetscErrorCode (*fun)(void *, Vec, Vec, PetscScalar *), void *ctx)
```
Logically Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***J -*** the `MATMFFD` matrix
- ***fun -*** the function that checks h
- ***ctx -*** any context needed by the function



## Options Database Keys

- ***-mat_mffd_check_positivity <bool> -*** Insure that U + h*a is non-negative





## Notes
For example, `MatMFFDCheckPositivity()` insures that all entries
of U + h*a are non-negative

The function you provide is called after the default h has been computed and allows you to
modify it.
