What does this mean? What is V?

-- Anders

The restriction of a function space to a domain. Obviously the use of
the measure "dx" is an abuse of concepts, but it's convenient to
reuse it.

Consider:

V1 = FiniteElement("CG", cell, 1) V0 = FiniteElement("DG", cell, 0) V
= V1 + V0[ds(2)] u, lamda = TrialFunctions(V)

Here lamda lives only on boundary 2.

Of course, this is useless without support in the rest of FEniCS, so
it's only a proof of concept for input syntax.

Feel free to suggest alternative syntax and naming.


Looks ok to me at first inspection. Now we just need it in FFC :).
