New options "mexext" and "matlabroot" are introduced, so that the preprocessor
knows where to find MATLAB and which architecture to compile for.
Only recent gcc is now supported. A set of optimization flags is used so that
compilation goes reasonably fast on large models.
Consequently, options "msvc", "mingw" and "cygwin" have been removed.
For correlations, there is one extra columns (since there are two symbol
indices). MATLAB automatically adds the missing column, while Octave is
stricter when verifying dimensions.
By the way, add a missing comma.
... when an initial value is given to a parameter that is not
estimated.
The generated driver file was crashing with cryptic error message
because we were searching in the first (and second) column of a
potentially empty array with 0 columns. The fix is to initialize the
fields of estimated_params_ with empty arrays with 10 columns (ie
zeros(0, 10)). Also print a message in the matlab command window if
parameter declared in estimated_params_init is not estimated.
In particular, it is necessary to turn back DataTree::AddVariable() into a
non-virtual method, because it is called from DataTree's constructor. Enforcing
the absence of leads/lags is now done using a new boolean DataTree::is_static.
Take advantage of the new copy constructor for handling
PlannerObjectiveStatement more elegantly.
Unfortunately it is not possible to implement *move* constructor / assigment
operators, because the reference ExprNode::datatree is not mutable.
Given a previously declared var_model, the var_expectation_model statement is
used to declare a way of forming expectations with this VAR (possibly using a
finite or infinite discounted sum). The var_expectation operator now takes a
single argument, the name of the var_expectation_model.
For the moment, this only works when the var_model is using equations
explicitly declared in the model block.
- store objects whose persistence is not guaranteed (e.g. strings) as values
instead of references (to avoid possible segfaults)
- on the contrary, always store the SymbolTable as a reference, since its
persistence is guaranteed, and we don't want to copy it
- use pass-by-value in constructors whenever possible
- remove useless const keyword when passing by value
Most cases can be handled in C++11 by std::stoi() and std::stod().
For the macroprocessor ArrayMV<T>::print() method, use template
specialization (instead of a lexical_cast to detect between T=int and
T=string).
