After installation, Dynare can be used in any directory on your computer. It is best practive to keep your model files in directories different from the one containing the Dynare toolbox. That way you can upgrade Dynare and discard the previous version without having to worry about your own files.
Execute the automated installer called dynare-4.x.y-win.exe
(where 4.x.y is the version number), and follow the instructions. The default installation directory is c:\dynare\4.x.y
.
After installation, this directory will contain several sub-directories, among which matlab
, mex
and doc
.
The installer will also add an entry in your Start Menu with a shortcut to documentation files and to the uninstaller.
Users of MATLAB 64-bit also need to install Microsoft Visual C++ runtime libraries in order to have functional MEX files.
Note that you can have several versions of Dynare coexisting (for example in c:\dynare
), as long as you correctly adjust your path settings (see Section 3.3, “Some words of warning”).
Please refer to Dynare Wiki for detailed instructions.
Dynare will be installed under /usr/share/dynare
and /usr/lib/dynare
. Documentation will be under /usr/share/doc/dynare
.
You need to download Dynare source code from the Dynare website and unpack it somewhere.
Then you will need to recompile the pre-processor and the dynamic loadable libraries. Please refer to Dynare Wiki.
