Sorry, but Dynare no longer runs under Scilab.

However, Dynare now runs on GNU Octave (a free clone of Matlab). See http://www.dynare.org/DynareWiki/DynareOctave for details.

Please launch the "dir" command on the Octave prompt. This should list the files of the current working directory, as Octave sees them. This should indicate if "rbc4.mod" is seen by Octave or not. One possibility is that your ...

Many thanks for the advise! I had a wrong version of Octave.

Hi I agree with Michel. Note that on the Octave Forge site, they provide two binaries for Octave 3.0.1: - one compiled with Microsoft Visual C++ 2005, simply called "octave-3.0.1.exe" - and another compiled with Microsoft Visual C++ ...

Hi Antti,

obviously the DLL's that we are shipping aren't compatible with your version of Octave. Please, try to recompile them by following the instructions at
http://www.dynare.org/DynareWiki/BuildingDlls

All the best,

Michel

Dear Musketeers, I am running dynare 4.0.2 with Octave 3.0.1. The dynare code is something very simple (so far). The code crashes to the following error message that is accompanied with an error message window saying Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime ...

Hi This file is purposedly named rcond.m, because Octave (a free clone of Matlab) doesn't have a builtin "rcond" function. And Dynare makes a heavy use of that function (which computes the reverse condition number of a matrix). So we are ...

... is a command in Matlab (my version 7.6.0.324) rcond.m. So I get the following in Dynare Warning: Function C:\MYWORK\Procs\matlab\Dynare4\4.0.1\mex\octave\rcond.m has the same name as a MATLAB builtin. We suggest you rename the function to avoid a potential name conflict. It does not affect anything ...

Hi,

the function mode_check calls the Matlab function saveas. This function does not seem to exist in OCTAVE (3.0.0). So Dynare crashes.

Hi,

The following command has an extra prime which makes Dynare crash on
Octave

Code: Select all

  eval(['load ' options_.mode_file ';']');

... Note that you have to install two packages: the package "dynare" for the M-files, the preprocessor (and also the MEX files compiled for Octave), and a package "dynare-matlab74" or "dynare-matlab75" for the MEX files compiled for Matlab, depending on your Matlab version. ...

Hi Christian, We do not maintain anymore the scilab version of Dynare. If you do not want to use matlab, you should try to run Dynare under Octave (available under linux, windows or mac). We try to keep all the code compatible with this free alternative to matlab. You will find some informations ...
