Hi all!

I'm running some simulations and I need to estimate some paramaters with
optim( ),
 in some cases optim stops with the next message:

                               "L-BFGS-B needs finite values of 'fn' "

I would like to know how to include and "if" condition when this happen,
could it be something like:

myfun <- optim(....)         #   run my function

????
if(myfun == ERROR) ..... #   when the error message is "L-BFGS-B needs
finite values of 'fn'
????

I've succesfully achieved when, for example convergence is not reached,

if(myfun$convergence != 0)

but I don't know how to do it in the other case

Any help??


Thanks in advance,

Dae-Jin
