They don’t bring any added value, and break compilation in C++20 mode (because
they are then of type “const char8_t *” which is distinct from “const char *”).
Note that the unitary test in lyapunov_solver.m that checks sparse matrix input
had to be removed. Previously, this test was passing by chance (because the
sparse test matrices had actually no zero element, hence the internal double
float storage was the same as in the dense case). Now it consistently fails
with the additional checks in disclyap_fast MEX.
Partially addresses issue #1680:
- unconditional welfare resorts to dynare++ simulation tools, which shall be updated very soon
TO DO:
- implement a function computing kth-order approximation of simulated moments of y
