#83: persistent variables must be cleared at the beginning of a Dynare run --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: michel | Owner: michel Type: bug | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Core M-files | Version: 4.1.0 Keywords: | --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- persistent variables in *.m files trigger hard to understand errors if the user run successively two different *.mod files with 'noclearall' option.
Whenever a function uses persistent variables, there should be an explicit initialize option and not rely on empty persistent variables as, for example, priordens.m currently does.

- priordens.m has been corrected. Initialization takes place in set_prior.m

Comment(by michel):
In current code called by Dynare, only mr_gstep.m and mr_hessian.m need still to be corrected.
There are other unsafe functions in matlab/ directory but it is still experimental code

mr_gstep.m and mr_hessian.m fixed in 47037687d5ca6ae2b2df3dd9954a2ccf0d8ed394 (for master) and in 531ef8783ff6eee99f593e7bf70890f362b5c84f (for 4.1).
Leaving this ticket open for the remaining experimental code.
