st: RE: where did my matrix go after calling -diagt-

Try this code:

*******
mat a=(1,1)
mat l a
mat dir
diagti 2 8 20 44
mat dir
mat l a
*******

-diagti-, the -immediate- brother of -diagt-, which is called along the way,
is to blame. If you -trace- its execution, you will find a -matrix drop
_all- somewhere in your log...

Subject: st: where did my matrix go after calling -diagt-

Dear listers, 
I´m creating a table using diagt (available from ssc) for different cutoff
values of p. However the matrix is lost after calling diagt (version 2.0.5)
and the same happens using this example-code:

(stata v10.1)

(ssc install diagt)
sysuse auto.dta
gen ind=price>10000
diagt ind foreign
mat a=(r(sens),r(spec))
mat list a
diagt ind foreign
mat dir

viewsource diagt.ado --no reference as far as I can tell to dropping of
matrices...Neither with diagti.

There is a previous post with diagt for bootstrap purposes, but there is no
reference to dropping of matrices.


Any ideas?
