# DMDASNESSetObjectiveLocal
set a local residual evaluation function that operates on a local vector with `DMDA` 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdmda.h" 
#include "petscsnes.h" 
PetscErrorCode DMDASNESSetObjectiveLocalVec(DM dm, DMDASNESObjectiveVec func, void *ctx)
```
Logically Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***dm -*** `DM` to associate callback with
- ***func -*** local objective evaluation
- ***ctx -*** optional context for local residual evaluation


Calling sequence
For PetscErrorCode (*func)(DMDALocalInfo *info,Vec x,PetscReal *ob,void *ctx);

- ***info -*** `DMDALocalInfo` defining the subdomain to evaluate the residual on
- ***x -*** state vector at which to evaluate residual
- ***ob -*** eventual objective value
