# PetscInfoGetFile

Gets the `filename` and `FILE` pointer of the file where `PetscInfo()` prints to

## Synopsis

    #include "petscsys.h"
    PetscErrorCode PetscInfoGetFile(char **filename, FILE **InfoFile)

Not Collective; No Fortran Support

## Output Parameters

- filename - The name of the output file

- InfoFile - The `FILE` pointer for the output file

## Note

This routine allocates and copies the `filename` so that the `filename` survives `PetscInfoDestroy()`. The user is therefore responsible for freeing the allocated `filename` pointer with `PetscFree()`
