# sparse_get_matrix_property(_:_:)

Returns the value of the given property name.

## Declaration

```swift
func sparse_get_matrix_property(_ A: UnsafeMutableRawPointer!, _ pname: sparse_matrix_property) -> Int
```

## Parameters

- `A`: The sparse matrix object.
- `pname`: The property name to get the value of. See doc://com.apple.accelerate/documentation/Accelerate/sparse_matrix_property for options.

## Return Value

Return Value Returns the value of the property for a valid object and property, or 0 otherwise.

## Discussion

Discussion Returns the value of the given property name. See matrix properties enumeration for further property details. important: Apple provides the BLAS and LAPACK libraries under the Accelerate framework to be in line with LAPACK 3.9.1. Starting with iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS 26, tvOS 26, visionOS 26, and watchOS 26, the libraries are in line with LAPACK 3.12.0. These new interfaces provide additional functionality, as well as a new ILP64 interface. To use the new interfaces, define ACCELERATE_NEW_LAPACK before including the Accelerate or vecLib headers. For ILP64 interfaces, also define ACCELERATE_LAPACK_ILP64. For Swift projects, specify ACCELERATE_NEW_LAPACK=1 and ACCELERATE_LAPACK_ILP64=1 as preprocessor macros in Xcode build settings under Apple Clang - Preprocessing > Preprocessor Macros.
