The idea is to make use of the dynamic_set_auxiliary_dseries.m file to generate
the initial conditions for all auxiliary variables, including the diffs.
Also remove the check done by the preprocessor for the lags in histval, since
it does not work correctly with the diff operator.
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.
This facilitates switching variable types on the fly. In particular, this
allows removing the hack in DynamicModel::updateAfterVariableChange() that way
basically recreating all the nodes after the type change.
This was not conceptually an enum, but rather a collection of unrelated
constants:
- two constants for use as placeholder for symbol IDs at different places
- one constant for the default number of arguments
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.
We can therefore manipulate objects by value rather than by pointers, which
saves a lot of memory manipulations (and avoid potential segfaults and memory
leaks).
Note that there is no default action ("$$ = $1") when using the variant type,
so we add them explicitly.
There is no reason to associate an exogenous variable or parameter to a
specific equation. For these types the user can use the pipe
notation (|x, |p) in any equations or the usual parameters and varexo statements.
