Re: [Gretl-devel] next release
Hi Allin,
This sounds great, thanks for the heads-up.
I don't know if this is a high enough priority to try fixing before then, but I've
had an issue executing a Julia script from within gretl. Disclosure: I only started trying
to learn Julia yesterday, so this may reflect my ignorance more than anything. Anyway, the
script is
<Julila>
2+2
f(n) = (n>1 ? f(n-1)+n : n)
f(50)
</Julila>
(I know there's a more efficient way to do the recursive function: this was intended
just as a test)
This runs fine in Atom/Juno/Julia. Running it from the Julia script window in gretl, the
script output window opens but is empty -- no errors or anything. Also no indication that
anything's happening in the background (initial loading, etc.). I haven't yet
tried it as a "foreign" block, as this behavior seems like a bug.
This is on Windows 10, gretl 2017b-git, build 2017-05-24.
Thanks,
Peter

We're planning to release gretl 2017c soon (I'm thinking of Monday, July 10), so
if anyone wants to update a translation, or has a bug report pending, this would be a good
time to act.
I'll mention a few bugs that have been fixed lately (not sure in all cases how
long-standing they are), so that people know they don't need to report them again:
* Crash on doing a forecast with plot via the GUI: some translations included strings that
overflowed the space available. Fix: make the strings in question dynamically allocated,
not fixed-size buffers.
* "/Tools/command log" view broken on Windows: the mkstemp() function works
differently on Windows from on Linux or Mac. Fix:
don't attempt to open a second FILE for reading the log, rewind the existing FILE then
reposition it once we're done reading.
* ARIMA model via GUI on Windows: on choosing "Show details of iterations", the
window that's supposed to show the details comes up empty. Another Windows mkstemp()
issue. Fix: scrap the notion of a separate "details" window, just print the
"iteration details" before the main ARIMA output in the model window (which is
what we do with most estimators when verbosity is requested.)
