Hello to all,

I am using the excellent Dynare 6.0 package in Octave in Mac, and I would like to know how to solve this warning:

warning: function /opt/homebrew/Cellar/dynare/6.0/lib/dynare/matlab/+identification/display.m shadows a built-in function

Thank you very much,

Hi, There is nothing to fix here, it’s just a warning that can be safely ignored. If you are willing to hide the warning, look at the documentation of the `warning` command in octave:

> **[Handling Warnings (GNU Octave (version 8.4.0))](https://docs.octave.org/latest/Handling-Warnings.html)**
>
> Handling Warnings (GNU Octave (version 8.4.0))

Best,  
Stéphane
