Value of likelihood?

Dear all,

Does anybody know where Dynare stores the value of the likelihood when it does ML so that I can call it?

Thank you
Jean-Paul

You could find exact place within file by searching "fminunc". That is way to call likelihood function that I use.
If you need only value of likelihood function then you could use value that is shown by DYNARE (when you use estimation). It is saved at log-file.

I don't know whether Likelihood value is saved at output variables or not.
