The method `desc_addname` adds arguments to the name of the node, and hence does not allow for line breaks. In the case of Dynare commands we don't run into a problem with this but we run into this problem with longer MATLAB/Octave commands.
For Dynare commands, we don't run into the problem with commands running over the page width as we use placeholders like `OPTIONS` since the order of the parameters passed to a command is irrelevant
For MATLAB/Octave commands, the order of parameters passed to a function is important, hence we cannot use a placeholder such as `OPTIONS`
closes#1688
- `dynasave`: if a variable being saved was named `n` or `s`, the `eval` statements would break the code
- `dynasave`: use the `-struct` option to `save` to avoid `eval` statements
- `dynasave` and `dynatype`: do everything in 1 loop instead of 2
- `dynasave` and `dynatype`: use `strcmp` instead of `strfind`
- preprocessor update contains:
- Partial reversion of global indentation of macro processor header files introduced in e2d5a83592634f0604d8c86409748cd2ec5906d2
- Symbol List check pass: allow caller to specify the valid types of variables in a Symbol List
- Allow `dynasave` and `dynatype` to support exogenous variables in their var_list
issue #1691
Note that I still need to do a code clean up (provide some licenses for functions from other people) and to double check order=3. There is also much room for speed and memory improvement, but the code works fine for now. I will also provide more information to the merge request soon about the detailed changes for future reference.
It applies the approximated policy function to a set of particles, using
Dynare++ routines.
There is support for parallelization, using Dynare++ multithreading
model (itself based on C++11 threads; we don’t use OpenMP because it is
incompatible with MKL). For the time being, default to a single thread. This
should be later refined through empirical testing.
In case the epilogue formula is non-linear, the non additive non-linear term is distributed proportionally to the size of the individual shock contribution.
It is triggered by new option with_epilogue, applicable to commands:
1) shock_decomposition, realtime_shock_decomposition,
where preprocessor should trigger
options_.shock_decomp.with_epilogue=true;
2) initial_condition_decomposition
where preprocessor should trigger
options_.initial_condition_decomp.with_epilogue=true;
