It seems a file is missing.

The work for this library has become significant enough to consider attaching a license. Most of the library should be considered "software" rather than "content", thus I have some suggestions: LPPL, LGPL.

The port symbols are going nuts when I insert a token on the channel. See the feedback loops from the picture generated by the code below:

\begin{tikzpicture}[]
  \standard[shape = leaf shape, hasmoc, class = sadf, type = kernel, ni=3,
    no=4, nf = 1, inner ysep=10pt, inner xsep=20pt] (if) <0,0> {\Huge IF};
  \resetportinfo{if}\wpinfo{a}\wpinfo{1}\wpinfo{1}
    \epinfo{1}\epinfo{1}\epinfo{1}\epinfo{1}
  \path (-2,0)+(if.w1) edge[s,->,dstport] (if.w1)
        (if.e1) edge[s, srcport,->] +(2,0)
        (if.e2) edge[s, srcport,->] +(2,0)
        (if.e3) edge[s, token=scalar,token pos=0.5, srcport,
          -|-|-=-0.4:1.4, deviate=-55pt, ->, dstport] (if.w2)
        (if.e4) edge[v, token=vector, token pos=0.5, srcport,
          -|-|-=-0.2:1.2, deviate=-20pt, ->, dstport] (if.w3)
        (0,1)+(if-f.n1) edge[f,->,dstport] (if-f.n1);
  \cluster[shape = comp shape, inner ysep=40pt, inner xsep=50pt]
    () <(if)> {Instruction Fetch};
\end{tikzpicture}

We could publish, for example the layered model graph, or the NoC picture template. Should they be under the same license as the library or should they include some Creative-Commons-type license?

On my Mac I get the following problem when running the Makefile:

...
kpathsea: Running mktextfm forsydeatom10
mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input forsydeatom10
This is METAFONT, Version 2.7182818 (TeX Live 2017) (preloaded base=mf)

Most of the times the pictures of process networks become over-encumbered by ports not aligning properly, since they are created dynamically, after the center coordinate has been established.

Two possibilities to fix this are:

• draw phantom nodes and redraw when necessary
• use nodes as path decorations, in a similar fashion to circuitikz

Also paths that traverse clusters cannot change shape unless there is a port, which in most of the cases ends in drawing huge detours. This also needs to be fixed.

The library needs a standard naming convention of graphical primitives based on their representation or shape rather than their equivalent in the ForSyDe framework.
Both API and manual need to be fully changed in order to be more suggestive.

The package is dependent on the release of forsyde-atom v0.1.2.

• "No shape known" : some commands issue errors in case no name is provided.
• "left of" and "right of" need to be switched
• tikzlibraryforsyde.keys.code.tex seems to be redundant.

My workarounds so far:

1. add export TEXMFLOCAL=/usr/share/texmf to the ~/.bashrc file.

2. install the package.

3. refresh tex database with sudo texhash.

Still not sure if the thing is going to the right place...

TODO

There seems to be an issue with l3regex.sty not being found in recent versions of texlive.

This issue is discussed here

A lot of radical changes have happened in the dev branch, to reflect the new status of ForSyDe as a formalism. These changes need to be documented and merged into the master branch.

Since the current content is mostly not relevant any more, it will not be included in the (future) first release.
