Hi all,
We have a problem with options_.replic which is used for three different purposes (number of prior simulations, irfs with a second order approximation and repeated stochastic simulations).
In global_initialization.m this variable is defined twice! We have:
* options_.replic =1 for prior simulations (?) , and after * options_.replic = 50 for irfs with a second order approximation
... So that the default value is 50.
When the user asks for a stochastic simulation with a second order approximation, dynare simulates 50 times the model and displays the results associated to the last simulated time series.
Shouldn't we create new fields in options_ ? If so, how should I call them (for the prior sampler and for the repeated stochastic simulations) ? Something will have to be fixed also in the preprocessor.
Best, Stéphane.
