# TaoComputeJacobianEquality
Computes the Jacobian matrix that has been set with `TaoSetJacobianEqualityRoutine()`. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petsctao.h" 
PetscErrorCode TaoComputeJacobianEquality(Tao tao, Vec X, Mat J, Mat Jpre)
```
Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***tao -*** the Tao solver context
- ***X   -*** input vector



## Output Parameters

- ***J    -*** Jacobian matrix
- ***Jpre -*** Preconditioning matrix



## Notes
Most users should not need to explicitly call this routine, as it
is used internally within the optimization algorithms.
