Comments, ToDos and Ideas on Release v0.1.0

[moiri]

As the title says. This refers to https://github.com/moiri/streamix-c/releases/tag/v0.1.0

• Wrapper
  • This release allows only port renaming on the wrapper interface and port renaming on net interfaces is completely removed. The argument is, that arbitrary feedbacks can be easily achieved with side-ports and it is sufficient to allow renaming on the wrapper to handle all cases (as described in the language report in idea I14 ) [-> what about the implicit decoupling of side ports?] [done]
  • It might be useful to keep a wrapper as simple port renaming operator ( with bypass, rerouting, etc ) but removing the scoping mechanism and introducing a function that allows to pass nets as arguments and has a scope (but no renaming)
  • turning off ports ( only a list of alternative names, without a external port )
• Memory Management [done]
  • The issue with box-only nets and wrappers could (maybe) be solved by putting it into a v_net, similar to the ones for parallel and serial operations [done]
  • Check whether the symbol pointer propagation when creating a wrapper instance causes problems later on when freeing symbols (symrec table) [it does not because symbols are freed following the symbol table which is independent of the instances]
  • Free net attribute after creating a new v_net because of wrapper port renaming [done]
• Add keywords like pure, static, decoupled as graph attributes [done]
• Handle sync statement [done] (syncs have been removed)
• Move the relevant question from the language report to github

All points in 'Memory Management' have been addressed in https://github.com/moiri/streamix-c/releases/tag/v0.1.0

Add keywords to graph, see 1b6d75144021f5ca7a38621c1f6fb6035d7e0458

A new operator ':' allows direct bypassing. Feedback loops are now possible on a single element (box or wrapper, not nets) by using the signature (in x, out x). Side ports are automatically decoupled at the output.
