Greetings,
I have a model in which Dynare opts to use auxiliary variables. I have and _steadystate.m file that worked fine with 4.2.1. It still works with 4.2.2, eventually, but I get hundreds of warnings that look like this:
Warning: Divide by zero.
In cmr_static at 147
In add_auxiliary_variables_to_steadystate at 30
In steady_ at 56
In steady at 54
In cmr at 2472
In dynare at 120
I run Mac OSX, Matlab R2009a. The only difference in any of the files from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 is in add_auxiliary_variables_to_steadystate.m. Several lines were deleted. Those deletions cause my problem. When I run the code with the add_auxiliary_variables_to_steadystate.m file from 4.2.1 and the rest of 4.2.2, everything again works without complaint.
I included in this post a diff for the relevant files to verify the differences. Is there a way that I can avoid these warnings? Was there a reason to delete the lines of code in the m file?
Best,
Ben
