Known bugs present in the current stable version

This page documents known bugs in Dynare stable.

• Macro processor: line numbers after @#define, @#include and @#includepath directives were off by 1 (bug fixed in preprocessor@50a2737e)
• The indexing of M_.endo_trends was off by 1 (bug fixed in preprocessor@2758f46c)
• Under Windows, when the default installation location is chosen (c:\dynare\), Dynare installation files can be modified by unpriviledged local users (bug fixed in 689355eb)
• The variable label for exogenous leads and lags was incorrect for leads and lags of exogenous variables in the display of decision rules and in model_info (bug fixed in 1866286f and 1219f085)
• OccBin:
  • running calib_smoother with smoother_inversion_filter would crash unless likelihood_inversion_filter was also specified (bug fixed in 4e4cd75c)
  • running the PKF smoother would crash if an error was encountered during computation of the decision rules (bug not yet fixed, see #1879 (closed))
• PAC: iterative OLS is broken (bug fixed in 3aeb1ff7)
• Perfect foresight simulations
  • the debug-mode did not preserve sparsity, causing out of memory errors (bug fixed in bbdcdc89)
• Estimation:
  • the computation of prior/posterior statistics would crash if filter step_ahead > 1 without requesting forecast or the smoother (bug fixed, see e7ca989b)
  • handling of NaN and complex parameters returned by steady state files was not correctly handled (bug fixed in 64d61c32)
  • analytical_derivation could be triggered with endogenous_prior but did not take the endogenous prior into account for the Jacobian and Hessian (bug not yet fixed, see !2120 (merged))
• Forecasts are only based on the DSGE-model, not the DSGE-VAR (bug not yet fixed; see #819)
• The contemp_reduced_form-option of the sbvar-command is broken (bug not yet fixed, see #1716)
