    487:    This object is destroyed in `PetscFinalize()`, `PetscViewerDestroy()` should never be called on it

    489:    Unlike almost all other PETSc routines, `PETSC_VIEWER_SOCKET_()` does not return
    490:    an error code, it returns `NULL` if it fails. The  `PETSCVIEWERSOCKET`  `PetscViewer` is usually used in the form `XXXView(XXX object, PETSC_VIEWER_SOCKET_(comm))`

    492:    Currently the only socket client available is MATLAB. See
    493:    src/dm/tests/ex12.c and ex12.m for an example of usage.

    495:    Connects to a waiting socket and stays connected until `PetscViewerDestroy()` is called.

    497:    Use this for communicating with an interactive MATLAB session, see `PETSC_VIEWER_MATLAB_()` for writing output to a
