# DMTSSetRHSJacobian
set `TS` Jacobian evaluation function 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscts.h" 
PetscErrorCode DMTSSetRHSJacobian(DM dm, TSRHSJacobian func, void *ctx)
```
Not Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***dm -*** `DM` to be used with `TS`
- ***func -*** Jacobian evaluation routine
- ***ctx -*** context for residual evaluation



## Calling sequence of func
```none
PetscErrorCode func(TS ts,PetscReal t,Vec u,Mat A,Mat B,void *ctx);
```


- ***t -*** current timestep
- ***u -*** input vector
- ***Amat -*** (approximate) Jacobian matrix
- ***Pmat -*** matrix from which preconditioner is to be constructed (usually the same as Amat)
- ***ctx -*** [optional] user-defined context for matrix evaluation routine





## Note
`TSSetJacobian()` is normally used, but it calls this function internally because the user context is actually
associated with the `DM`.  This makes the interface consistent regardless of whether the user interacts with a `DM` or
not.


## Developer Note
If `DM` took a more central role at some later date, this could become the primary method of setting the Jacobian.
