== Installing the Dynare 4.1.0 Package on Mac OS X 10.5 or higher ==
 1. Download and run the appropriate Dynare Package for your system; OS X v10.5 should download the 32-bit package while OS X v10.6 are free to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit packages (unless you will be using Dynare with Octave, which only supports 32-bit).		 This page documents the installation of the Dynare on Mac OS X. If you have any troubles, please contact <<MailTo(houtan AT SPAMFREE dynare DOT org)>>

   1. If you get a warning saying that the package cannot be opened "because it is from an unidentified developer," open the folder containing the package, right-click on it, select "Open" from the menu that pops up, and select "Open" from the dialog box that pops up.
 1. The default installation folder is {{{/Applications/Dynare/<<version>>}}}, where {{{<<version>>}}} is one of {{{4.2.0, 4.2.1, 4.2.2}}}, etc.

=== Matlab Setup ===
 1. Once installation is complete, open Matlab. Go to {{{File->Set Path...}}} and add the full path to the {{{DYNARE-4.1.0/}}} installation folder. If you have followed the standard installation (i.e., not changed the default installation location), this will be {{{/Applications/DYNARE-4.1.0}}}.

  3. The default installation folder is /Applications/Dynare/<<version>>, where <<version>> is one of 4.2.0, 4.2.1, 4.2.2, etc.

Dynare for Octave

  1. Install Homebrew by following the directions on their site

  2. Tap the Homebrew installation script for Dynare

    1. At the Terminal prompt, type: brew tap DynareTeam/homebrew-dynare

  3. Look at the available installation options by typing brew info dynare at the terminal prompt

  4. Install Dynare, passing the options you require for your setup

    2. brew install dynare --with-matlab=/Applications/MATLAB_R2014a.app --with-matlab-version=8.3 --without-check

  5. NB: We encourage you to always pass the --without-check option as the tests take hours to complete

  6. NB: If you do not pass the --without-octave option, Octave will automatically be installed for you via Homebrew

Dynare 4.3.3 or higher on Mac OS X 10.6 or higher

MATLAB Setup

  1. Add /Applications/Dynare/<<version>>/matlab/ to your Matlab path. You can do this either using the addpath command to add it just for this session or using the menu option File->Set Path... to add it across Matlab sessions.

Octave Setup

  1. Install Octave 3.6.4 via Homebrew (which requires XCode) by following the instructions in the "Simple Installation Instructions" subsection of the "Homebrew" section of this site.

  2. Before executing MOD files, you need to execute the following command at Octave prompt: 
    addpath /Applications/Dynare/<<version>>/matlab

Dynare 4.2.2 - 4.3.2 on Mac OS X 10.6 or higher

MATLAB Setup

  1. Add /Applications/Dynare/<<version>>/matlab/ to your Matlab path. You can do this either using the addpath command to add it just for this session or using the menu option File->Set Path... to add it across Matlab sessions.

Octave Setup for OS X 10.6 and 10.7 (not available under 10.8)

  1. Download and install version 3.4.0 of the Octave Mac OS X binary and add /Applications/Octave.app/Contents/Resources/bin to your search path.

  2. If you are going to use the use_dll or k_order_perturbation options, add the following lines to the /Applications/Octave.app/Contents/Resources/bin/mkoctfile-3.4.0 file after the set -e statement at the top of the file 

    CFLAGS="-arch i386 ${CFLAGS}"
FFLAGS="-arch i386 ${FFLAGS}"
CPPFLAGS="-arch i386 ${CPPFLAGS}"
CXXFLAGS="-arch i386 ${CXXFLAGS}"
LDFLAGS="-arch i386 ${LDFLAGS}"
  3. Before executing MOD files, you need to execute the following command at Octave prompt: 
    addpath /Applications/Dynare/<<version>>/matlab

Dynare 4.2.0 or 4.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6

MATLAB Setup

  1. Install XCode 3.2 or later, which can either be installed from the internet or from the installation discs that came with your Mac. This installs the necessary gcc compilers required by build_dynare.m in step 3.

    CFLAGS="-arch i386 ${CFLAGS}"
FFLAGS="-arch i386 ${FFLAGS}"
CPPFLAGS="-arch i386 ${CPPFLAGS}"
CXXFLAGS="-arch i386 ${CXXFLAGS}"
LDFLAGS="-arch i386 ${LDFLAGS}"
  3. Before excuting MOD files, you need to execute the following command at Octave prompt: 
    addpath /Applications/Dynare/<<version>>/matlab

Documentation

Documentation can be found in the doc/ folder under the installation directory (the default is /Applications/Dynare/<<version>>/doc). The User Guide (located by default in /Applications/Dynare/<<version>>/doc/userguide/UserGuide.pdf) is a particularly helpful starting place. Errata for the User Guide can be found here.
