The steady state is always zero for discretionary policy. And, in the case of a
steady state file, this call would not be able to update parameters (since it
does not modify M_), nor would it need to do so (since this has already be done
earlier in the function).
Ref. #1705
Under GNU/Linux and macOS, double-quote arguments before passing them to the
shell. In particular, this allows passing single-quotes within those arguments.
We therefore have to escape the four characters that are interpreted within
double-quoted strings in POSIX shells: \, ", $ and `
On Windows, also systematically escape the backslashes.
Also move display of arguments before escaping, so that it remains readable.
Ref. #1696
This removes global variables from discretionary_policy_1.m, and also adapts
the behaviour and interface of the function so that it is similar to
resol.m (in particular, it no longer returns an empty “dr” in case of failure,
and it sets “oo_.dr”).
Ref. #1173
closes#1696
includes preprocessor changes
- Removed prefixing of doubles between -1 and 1 with 0.
- Fixed bug introduced in 985d742.
- macro processor: simplify handling of `@#define`
- cherrypick routine was not returning the correct lists of endogenous
and exogenous variables. The number of endogenous variables was even
not matching the number of equations.
- In some cases LHS expressions were not preprocessed to extract the
name of an endogenous variable.
- Return a non cryptic error message if more than one endogenous
variable appears in the LHS.
The nopathchange is still not supported in this context, so document it.
Also recommend the whitespace-separated syntax instead of the comma-separated
syntax, since the latter is inconsistent with the way options are passed on the
command-line.
Closes: #1667
Because at some point throwing exceptions from MEX files (with mexErrMsgTxt())
was not working under Windows 64-bit, we had designed a workaround to avoid
using exceptions.
Most MEX files were returning an error code as their first (or sometimes last)
argument, and that code would have to be checked from the MATLAB code.
Since this workaround is no longer needed, this commit removes it. As a
consequence, the interface of many MEX files is modified.
For some background, see https://www.dynare.org/pipermail/dev/2010-September/000895.html
- `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;
Under Octave, having namespaces called “get” and “set” overshadows the builtin
functions with the same names, which are needed for graphics manipulation.
Therefore we go back to the initial function naming scheme, but moving all
those functions under an “accessors” subdirectory.
Among other things, this is a revert of
e4134ab59b and
c5e86fcb59.
Ref. !1655, !1686
Accordingly update the MATLAB routines, the testsuite, and the manual.
In particular, “squeeze_shock_decomp” has been renamed to
“squeeze_shock_decomposition” for consistency with other commands.
