The dynamic links relate a particular parameter (or steady-state value) on the LHS to a function of other parameters or steady-state values on the RHS. Expression
can be any expression involving parameter names, variables names, Matlab functions and constants, or your own m-file functions on the path; it must not refer to any lags or leads. Expression
must evaluate to a single number. It is the user's responsibility to properly handle the imaginary (i.e. growth) part of the steady-state values.
The links are automatically refreshed in solve
, sstate
, and chksstate
functions, and also in each iteration within the estimate
function. They can also be refreshed manually by calling refresh
.
The links must not involve parameters occuring in !dtrends
equations that will be estimated using the 'outoflik='
option of the estimate
function.
