Hi, Can anyone tell me why | * kalman_filter_smoother/check_variable_dimensions/fs2000_ML.mod fails on master? I tried it and cannot replicate any problem. Moreover, can somebody with Octave tell me why the changes to the OSR-routines lead to crashes under Octave: | * optimal_policy/osr_example_objective_correctness.mod Best, Johannes -- Johannes Pfeifer Friesenwall 104 50672 Köln Tel.: +49-221-29873852 Mobil.: +49-170-6936820 Germany

I found that discussion: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/294626 The reason is efficiency and doesn't seem to apply to character matrices like M_.endo_names (even if I think that one day we should change it to cellarray) Matlab wording has evolved. It use to be "will be removed in the future" and in recent Matlab version "usage is discouraged". My main worry was to avoid using strmatch() to prepare for removal, but if this threat has disappeared I guess that we can keep using it, at least with character matrices. Maybe we should do dyn_strmatch() to use str(n)cmp() with cellarrays. Best Michel Johannes Pfeifer writes: > Thanks for the comments.

PosteriorFilterSmootherAndForecast.m
by Johannes Pfeifer 18 Nov '14

Dear all, In Master we have a function PosteriorFilterSmootherAndForecast.m that seems not be called by any other function. Does anyone know whether it is still used? If not, I would prefer to delete it rather than try to fix the trend and prefiltering bugs still present in that function. A quick and short feedback would be highly appreciated. Best, Johannes
