Licensing Information

16
|
|
17
|
This is a release of MySQL Connector/J 8.0, brought to you by the MySQL
|
18
|
team at Oracle. This software is released under version 2 of the GNU
|
19
|
General Public License (GPLv2), as set forth below, with the following
|
20
|
additional permissions:
|
21
|
|
22
|
This distribution of MySQL Connector/J 8.0 is distributed with certain
|
23
|
software that is licensed under separate terms, as designated in a
|
24
|
particular file or component or in the license documentation. Without
|
25
|
limiting your rights under the GPLv2, the authors of MySQL hereby grant
|
26
|
you an additional permission to link the program and your derivative
|
27
|
works with the separately licensed software that they have included
|
28
|
with the program.
|
29
|
|
30
|
Without limiting the foregoing grant of rights under the GPLv2 and
|
31
|
additional permission as to separately licensed software, this
|
32
|
Connector is also subject to the Universal FOSS Exception, version 1.0,
|
33
|
a copy of which is reproduced below and can also be found along with
|
34
|
its FAQ at http://oss.oracle.com/licenses/universal-foss-exception.

Election of GPLv2
|
40
|
|
41
|
For the avoidance of doubt, except that if any license choice other
|
42
|
than GPL or LGPL is available it will apply instead, Oracle elects to
|
43
|
use only the General Public License version 2 (GPLv2) at this time for
|
44
|
any software where a choice of GPL license versions is made available
|
45
|
with the language indicating that GPLv2 or any later version may be
|
46
|
used, or where a choice of which version of the GPL is applied is
|
47
|
otherwise unspecified.

Version 2, June 1991

|
67
|
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim
|
68
|
copies of this license document, but changing it is not
|
69
|
allowed.

|
Preamble
|
72
|
|
73
|
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
|
74
|
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
|
75
|
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
|
76
|
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
|
77
|
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
|
78
|
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
|
79
|
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
|
80
|
the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
|
81
|
your programs, too.
|
82
|
|
83
|
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
|
84
|
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
|
85
|
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
|
86
|
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
|
87
|
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
|
88
|
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
|
89
|
|
90
|
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
|
91
|
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
|
92
|
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
|
93
|
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
|
94
|
|
95
|
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
|
96
|
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
|
97
|
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
|
98
|
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
|
99
|
rights.
|
100
|
|
101
|
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software,
|
102
|
and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to
|
103
|
copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
|
104
|
|
105
|
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
|
106
|
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
|
107
|
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on,
|
108
|
we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original,
|
109
|
so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the
|
110
|
original authors' reputations.
|
111
|
|
112
|
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
|
113
|
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
|
114
|
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
|
115
|
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
|
116
|
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
|
117
|
|
118
|
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
|
119
|
modification follow.
|
120
|
|
121
|
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
122
|
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
|
123
|
|
124
|
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
|
125
|
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
|
126
|
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
|
127
|
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
|
128
|
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
|
129
|
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
|
130
|
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
|
131
|
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
|
132
|
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
|
133
|
|
134
|
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
|
135
|
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
|
136
|
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
|
137
|
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
|
138
|
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
|
139
|
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
|
140
|
|
141
|
|
142
|
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
|
143
|
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
|
144
|
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
|
145
|
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
|
146
|
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
|
147
|
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
|
148
|
along with the Program.
|
149
|
|
150
|
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
|
151
|
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
|
152
|
|
153
|
|
154
|
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
|
155
|
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
|
156
|
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
|
157
|
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
|
158
|
|
159
|
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
|
160
|
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
|
161
|
|
162
|
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
|
163
|
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
|
164
|
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
|
165
|
parties under the terms of this License.
|
166
|
|
167
|
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
|
168
|
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
|
169
|
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
|
170
|
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
|
171
|
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
|
172
|
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
|
173
|
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
|
174
|
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
|
175
|
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
|
176
|
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
|
177
|
|
178
|
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
|
179
|
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
|
180
|
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
|
181
|
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
|
182
|
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
|
183
|
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
|
184
|
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
|
185
|
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
|
186
|
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
|
187
|
|
188
|
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
|
189
|
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
|
190
|
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
|
191
|
collective works based on the Program.
|
192
|
|
193
|
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
|
194
|
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
|
195
|
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
|
196
|
the scope of this License.
|
197
|
|
198
|
|
199
|
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
|
200
|
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
|
201
|
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
|
202
|
|
203
|
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
|
204
|
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
|
205
|
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
|
206
|
interchange; or,
|
207
|
|
208
|
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
|
209
|
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
|
210
|
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
|
211
|
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
|
212
|
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
|
213
|
customarily used for software interchange; or,
|
214
|
|
215
|
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
|
216
|
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
|
217
|
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
|
218
|
received the program in object code or executable form with such
|
219
|
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
|
220
|
|
221
|
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
|
222
|
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
|
223
|
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
|
224
|
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
|
225
|
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as
|
226
|
a special exception, the source code distributed need not include
|
227
|
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
|
228
|
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
|
229
|
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
|
230
|
itself accompanies the executable.
|
231
|
|
232
|
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
|
233
|
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
|
234
|
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
|
235
|
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
|
236
|
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
|
237
|
|
238
|
|
239
|
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
|
240
|
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
|
241
|
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
|
242
|
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
|
243
|
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
|
244
|
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
|
245
|
parties remain in full compliance.
|
246
|
|
247
|
|
248
|
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
|
249
|
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
|
250
|
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
|
251
|
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
|
252
|
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
|
253
|
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
|
254
|
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
|
255
|
the Program or works based on it.
|
256
|
|
257
|
|
258
|
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
|
259
|
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
|
260
|
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
|
261
|
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
|
262
|
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
|
263
|
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
|
264
|
this License.
|
265
|
|
266
|
|
267
|
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
|
268
|
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
|
269
|
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
270
|
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
|
271
|
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
|
272
|
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
|
273
|
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
|
274
|
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
|
275
|
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
|
276
|
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
|
277
|
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
|
278
|
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
|
279
|
|
280
|
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
|
281
|
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
|
282
|
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
|
283
|
circumstances.
|
284
|
|
285
|
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
|
286
|
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
|
287
|
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
|
288
|
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
|
289
|
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
|
290
|
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
|
291
|
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
|
292
|
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
|
293
|
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
|
294
|
impose that choice.
|
295
|
|
296
|
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
|
297
|
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
|
298
|
|
299
|
|
300
|
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
|
301
|
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
|
302
|
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
|
303
|
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
|
304
|
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
|
305
|
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
|
306
|
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
|
307
|
|
308
|
|
309
|
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
|
310
|
versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new
|
311
|
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
|
312
|
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
|
313
|
|
314
|
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
|
315
|
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
|
316
|
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
|
317
|
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
|
318
|
the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a
|
319
|
version number of this License, you may choose any version ever
|
320
|
published by the Free Software Foundation.
|
321
|
|
322
|
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
|
323
|
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the
|
324
|
author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the
|
325
|
Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we
|
326
|
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the
|
327
|
two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
|
328
|
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
|
329
|
|
330
|
NO WARRANTY
|
331
|
|
332
|
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
|
333
|
WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
|
334
|
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
|
335
|
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
|
336
|
EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
|
337
|
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
|
338
|
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS
|
339
|
WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
|
340
|
ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
|
341
|
|
342
|
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
|
343
|
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
|
344
|
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
|
345
|
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
|
346
|
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
|
347
|
PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
|
348
|
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
|
349
|
FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF
|
350
|
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
|
351
|
DAMAGES.
|
352
|
|
353
|
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
|
354
|
|

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
|
356
|
|
357
|
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
|
358
|
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
|
359
|
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
|
360
|
|
361
|
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
|
362
|
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
|
363
|
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
|
364
|
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
|
365
|
|
366
|
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
|
367

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
|
370

|
371
|

|

|
374
|
|
375
|
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
|
376
|
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
|
377
|
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
|

379

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
|
381
|
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software

|
384
|
|
385
|
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
|
386
|
|
387
|
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
|
388
|
when it starts in an interactive mode:
|
389
|
|
390
|
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
|
391
|
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details
|
392
|
type 'show w'. This is free software, and you are welcome
|
393
|
to redistribute it under certain conditions; type 'show c'
|
394
|
for details.
|
395
|
|
396
|
The hypothetical commands 'show w' and 'show c' should show the
|
397
|
appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the
|
398
|
commands you use may be called something other than 'show w' and
|
399
|
'show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever
|
400
|
suits your program.
|
401
|
|
402
|
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
|
403
|
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
|
404
|
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
|

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
|
414
|
into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library,
|
415
|
you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary
|
416
|
applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use
|
417
|
the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License.

The Universal FOSS Exception, Version 1.0
|
420
|
|
421
|
In addition to the rights set forth in the other license(s) included in
|
422
|
the distribution for this software, data, and/or documentation
|
423
|
(collectively the "Software", and such licenses collectively with this
|
424
|
additional permission the "Software License"), the copyright holders
|
425
|
wish to facilitate interoperability with other software, data, and/or
|
426
|
documentation distributed with complete corresponding source under a
|
427
|
license that is OSI-approved and/or categorized by the FSF as free
|
428
|
(collectively "Other FOSS"). We therefore hereby grant the following
|
429
|
additional permission with respect to the use and distribution of the
|
430
|
Software with Other FOSS, and the constants, function signatures, data
|
431
|
structures and other invocation methods used to run or interact with
|
432
|
each of them (as to each, such software's "Interfaces"):
|
433
|
i. The Software's Interfaces may, to the extent permitted by the
|
434
|
license of the Other FOSS, be copied into, used and distributed in
|
435
|
the Other FOSS in order to enable interoperability, without
|
436
|
requiring a change to the license of the Other FOSS other than as
|
437
|
to any Interfaces of the Software embedded therein. The Software's
|
438
|
Interfaces remain at all times under the Software License,
|
439
|
including without limitation as used in the Other FOSS (which upon
|
440
|
any such use also then contains a portion of the Software under the
|
441
|
Software License).
|
442
|
ii. The Other FOSS's Interfaces may, to the extent permitted by the
|
443
|
license of the Other FOSS, be copied into, used and distributed in
|
444
|
the Software in order to enable interoperability, without requiring
|
445
|
that such Interfaces be licensed under the terms of the Software
|
446
|
License or otherwise altering their original terms, if this does
|
447
|
not require any portion of the Software other than such Interfaces
|
448
|
to be licensed under the terms other than the Software License.
|
449
|
iii. If only Interfaces and no other code is copied between the
|
450
|
Software and the Other FOSS in either direction, the use and/or
|
451
|
distribution of the Software with the Other FOSS shall not be
|
452
|
deemed to require that the Other FOSS be licensed under the license
|
453
|
of the Software, other than as to any Interfaces of the Software
|
454
|
copied into the Other FOSS. This includes, by way of example and
|
455
|
without limitation, statically or dynamically linking the Software
|
456
|
together with Other FOSS after enabling interoperability using the
|
457
|
Interfaces of one or both, and distributing the resulting
|
458
|
combination under different licenses for the respective portions
|
459
|
thereof. For avoidance of doubt, a license which is OSI-approved or
|
460
|
categorized by the FSF as free, includes, for the purpose of this
|
461
|
permission, such licenses with additional permissions, and any
|
462
|
license that has previously been so approved or categorized as
|
463
|
free, even if now deprecated or otherwise no longer recognized as
|
464
|
approved or free. Nothing in this additional permission grants any
|
465
|
right to distribute any portion of the Software on terms other than
|
466
|
those of the Software License or grants any additional permission
|
467
|
of any kind for use or distribution of the Software in conjunction
|
468
|
with software other than Other FOSS.

Preamble
|
758
|
|
759
|
The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which a
|
760
|
Package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder maintains some
|
761
|
semblance of artistic control over the development of the package,
|
762
|
while giving the users of the package the right to use and distribute
|
763
|
the Package in a more-or-less customary fashion, plus the right to make
|
764
|
reasonable modifications.
|
765
|
|
766
|
Definitions:
|
767
|
|
768
|
"Package" refers to the collection of files distributed by the
|
769
|
Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files
|
770
|
created through textual modification.
|
771
|
|
772
|
"Standard Version" refers to such a Package if it has not been
|
773
|
modified, or has been modified in accordance with the wishes
|
774
|
of the Copyright Holder as specified below.
|
775
|
|
776
|
"Copyright Holder" is whoever is named in the copyright or
|
777
|
copyrights for the package.
|
778
|
|
779
|
"You" is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing
|
780
|
this Package.
|
781
|
|
782
|
"Reasonable copying fee" is whatever you can justify on the
|
783
|
basis of media cost, duplication charges, time of people involved,
|
784
|
and so on. (You will not be required to justify it to the
|
785
|
Copyright Holder, but only to the computing community at large
|
786
|
as a market that must bear the fee.)
|
787
|
|
788
|
"Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the item
|
789
|
itself, though there may be fees involved in handling the item.
|
790
|
It also means that recipients of the item may redistribute it
|
791
|
under the same conditions they received it.
|
792
|
|
793
|
1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of the
|
794
|
Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided that you
|
795
|
duplicate all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers.
|
796
|
|
797
|
2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other modifications
|
798
|
derived from the Public Domain or from the Copyright Holder. A Package
|
799
|
modified in such a way shall still be considered the Standard Version.
|
800
|
|
801
|
3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way, provided
|
802
|
that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file stating how and
|
803
|
when you changed that file, and provided that you do at least ONE of the
|
804
|
following:
|
805
|
|
806
|
a) place your modifications in the Public Domain or otherwise make them
|
807
|
Freely Available, such as by posting said modifications to Usenet or
|
808
|
an equivalent medium, or placing the modifications on a major archive
|
809
|
site such as uunet.uu.net, or by allowing the Copyright Holder to include
|
810
|
your modifications in the Standard Version of the Package.
|
811
|
|
812
|
b) use the modified Package only within your corporation or organization.
|
813
|
|
814
|
c) rename any non-standard executables so the names do not conflict
|
815
|
with standard executables, which must also be provided, and provide
|
816
|
a separate manual page for each non-standard executable that clearly
|
817
|
documents how it differs from the Standard Version.
|
818
|
|
819
|
d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.
|
820
|
|
821
|
4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or
|
822
|
executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following:
|
823
|
|
824
|
a) distribute a Standard Version of the executables and library files,
|
825
|
together with instructions (in the manual page or equivalent) on where
|
826
|
to get the Standard Version.
|
827
|
|
828
|
b) accompany the distribution with the machine-readable source of
|
829
|
the Package with your modifications.
|
830
|
|
831
|
c) give non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly
|
832
|
document the differences in manual pages (or equivalent), together
|
833
|
with instructions on where to get the Standard Version.
|
834
|
|
835
|
d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.
|
836
|
|
837
|
5. You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of this
|
838
|
Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support of this
|
839
|
Package. You may not charge a fee for this Package itself. However,
|
840
|
you may distribute this Package in aggregate with other (possibly
|
841
|
commercial) programs as part of a larger (possibly commercial) software
|
842
|
distribution provided that you do not advertise this Package as a
|
843
|
product of your own. You may embed this Package's interpreter within
|
844
|
an executable of yours (by linking); this shall be construed as a mere
|
845
|
form of aggregation, provided that the complete Standard Version of the
|
846
|
interpreter is so embedded.
|
847
|
|
848
|
6. The scripts and library files supplied as input to or produced as
|
849
|
output from the programs of this Package do not automatically fall
|
850
|
under the copyright of this Package, but belong to whoever generated
|
851
|
them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this
|
852
|
Package. If such scripts or library files are aggregated with this
|
853
|
Package via the so-called "undump" or "unexec" methods of producing a
|
854
|
binary executable image, then distribution of such an image shall
|
855
|
neither be construed as a distribution of this Package nor shall it
|
856
|
fall under the restrictions of Paragraphs 3 and 4, provided that you do
|
857
|
not represent such an executable image as a Standard Version of this
|
858
|
Package.
|
859
|
|
860
|
7. C subroutines (or comparably compiled subroutines in other
|
861
|
languages) supplied by you and linked into this Package in order to
|
862
|
emulate subroutines and variables of the language defined by this
|
863
|
Package shall not be considered part of this Package, but are the
|
864
|
equivalent of input as in Paragraph 6, provided these subroutines do
|
865
|
not change the language in any way that would cause it to fail the
|
866
|
regression tests for the language.
|
867
|
|
868
|
8. Aggregation of this Package with a commercial distribution is always
|
869
|
permitted provided that the use of this Package is embedded; that is,
|
870
|
when no overt attempt is made to make this Package's interfaces visible
|
871
|
to the end user of the commercial distribution. Such use shall not be
|
872
|
construed as a distribution of this Package.
|
873
|
|
874
|
9. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or promote
|
875
|
products derived from this software without specific prior written
|
876
|
permission.

Preamble
|
912
|
|
913
|
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
|
914
|
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
|
915
|
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
|
916
|
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
|
917
|
|
918
|
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
|
919
|
specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
|
920
|
Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You
|
921
|
can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
|
922
|
this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
|
923
|
strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
|
924
|
|
925
|
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
|
926
|
not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
|
927
|
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
|
928
|
for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
|
929
|
it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
|
930
|
it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
|
931
|
these things.
|
932
|
|
933
|
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
|
934
|
distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
|
935
|
rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
|
936
|
you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
|
937
|
|
938
|
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
|
939
|
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
|
940
|
you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
|
941
|
code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide
|
942
|
complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
|
943
|
with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
|
944
|
it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
|
945
|
|
946
|
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
|
947
|
library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
|
948
|
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
|
949
|
|
950
|
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
|
951
|
there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is
|
952
|
modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
|
953
|
that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
|
954
|
author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
|
955
|
introduced by others.
|
956
|
|
957
|
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
|
958
|
any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot
|
959
|
effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
|
960
|
restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that
|
961
|
any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
|
962
|
consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
|
963
|
|
964
|
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
|
965
|
ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser
|
966
|
General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
|
967
|
is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use
|
968
|
this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
|
969
|
libraries into non-free programs.
|
970
|
|
971
|
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
|
972
|
a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
|
973
|
combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
|
974
|
General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
|
975
|
entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
|
976
|
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
|
977
|
the library.
|
978
|
|
979
|
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
|
980
|
does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
|
981
|
Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less
|
982
|
of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages
|
983
|
are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
|
984
|
libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
|
985
|
special circumstances.
|
986
|
|
987
|
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
|
988
|
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it
|
989
|
becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs
|
990
|
must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that
|
991
|
a free library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries.
|
992
|
In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library
|
993
|
to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
|
994
|
|
995
|
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
|
996
|
programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
|
997
|
free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
|
998
|
non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
|
999
|
operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
|
1000
|
system.
|
1001
|
|
1002
|
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
|
1003
|
users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
|
1004
|
linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
|
1005
|
that program using a modified version of the Library.
|
1006
|
|
1007
|
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
|
1008
|
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
|
1009
|
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
|
1010
|
former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
|
1011
|
be combined with the library in order to run.
|

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

1014
|
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
|
1015
|
|
1016
|
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
|
1017
|
program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
|
1018
|
other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
|
1019
|
this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
|
1020
|
Each licensee is addressed as "you".
|
1021
|
|
1022
|
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
|
1023
|
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
|
1024
|
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
|
1025
|
|
1026
|
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
|
1027
|
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
|
1028
|
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
|
1029
|
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
|
1030
|
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
|
1031
|
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
|
1032
|
included without limitation in the term "modification".)
|
1033
|
|
1034
|
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
|
1035
|
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
|
1036
|
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
|
1037
|
interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
|
1038
|
compilation and installation of the library.
|
1039
|
|
1040
|
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
|
1041
|
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
|
1042
|
running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
|
1043
|
such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
|
1044
|
on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
|
1045
|
writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
|
1046
|
and what the program that uses the Library does.
|
1047
|
|
1048
|
|
1049
|
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
|
1050
|
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
|
1051
|
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
|
1052
|
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
|
1053
|
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
|
1054
|
warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
|
1055
|
Library.
|
1056
|
|
1057
|
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
|
1058
|
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
|
1059
|
fee.
|
1060
|
|
1061
|
|
1062
|
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
|
1063
|
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
|
1064
|
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
|
1065
|
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
|
1066
|
|
1067
|
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
|
1068
|
|
1069
|
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
|
1070
|
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
|
1071
|
|
1072
|
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
|
1073
|
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
|
1074
|
|
1075
|
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
|
1076
|
table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
|
1077
|
the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
|
1078
|
is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
|
1079
|
in the event an application does not supply such function or
|
1080
|
table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
|
1081
|
its purpose remains meaningful.
|
1082
|
|
1083
|
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
|
1084
|
a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
|
1085
|
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
|
1086
|
application-supplied function or table used by this function must
|
1087
|
be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
|
1088
|
root function must still compute square roots.)
|
1089
|
|
1090
|
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
|
1091
|
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
|
1092
|
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
|
1093
|
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
|
1094
|
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
|
1095
|
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
|
1096
|
on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
|
1097
|
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
|
1098
|
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
|
1099
|
it.
|
1100
|
|
1101
|
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
|
1102
|
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
|
1103
|
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
|
1104
|
collective works based on the Library.
|
1105
|
|
1106
|
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
|
1107
|
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
|
1108
|
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
|
1109
|
the scope of this License.
|
1110
|
|
1111
|
|
1112
|
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
|
1113
|
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
|
1114
|
this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
|
1115
|
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
|
1116
|
instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
|
1117
|
ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
|
1118
|
that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
|
1119
|
these notices.
|
1120
|
|
1121
|
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
|
1122
|
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
|
1123
|
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
|
1124
|
|
1125
|
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
|
1126
|
the Library into a program that is not a library.
|
1127
|
|
1128
|
|
1129
|
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
|
1130
|
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
|
1131
|
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
|
1132
|
it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
|
1133
|
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
|
1134
|
medium customarily used for software interchange.
|
1135
|
|
1136
|
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
|
1137
|
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
|
1138
|
source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
|
1139
|
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
|
1140
|
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
|
1141
|
|
1142
|
|
1143
|
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
|
1144
|
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
|
1145
|
linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
|
1146
|
work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
|
1147
|
therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
|
1148
|
|
1149
|
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
|
1150
|
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
|
1151
|
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
|
1152
|
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
|
1153
|
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
|
1154
|
|
1155
|
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
|
1156
|
that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
|
1157
|
derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
|
1158
|
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
|
1159
|
linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
|
1160
|
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
|
1161
|
|
1162
|
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
|
1163
|
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
|
1164
|
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
|
1165
|
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
|
1166
|
work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
|
1167
|
Library will still fall under Section 6.)
|
1168
|
|
1169
|
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
|
1170
|
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
|
1171
|
Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
|
1172
|
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
|
1173
|
|
1174
|
|
1175
|
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
|
1176
|
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
|
1177
|
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
|
1178
|
under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
|
1179
|
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
|
1180
|
engineering for debugging such modifications.
|
1181
|
|
1182
|
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
|
1183
|
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
|
1184
|
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
|
1185
|
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
|
1186
|
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
|
1187
|
directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
|
1188
|
of these things:
|
1189
|
|
1190
|
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
|
1191
|
machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
|
1192
|
changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
|
1193
|
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
|
1194
|
with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
|
1195
|
uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
|
1196
|
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
|
1197
|
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
|
1198
|
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
|
1199
|
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
|
1200
|
to use the modified definitions.)
|
1201
|
|
1202
|
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
|
1203
|
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
|
1204
|
copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
|
1205
|
rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
|
1206
|
will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
|
1207
|
the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
|
1208
|
interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
|
1209
|
|
1210
|
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
|
1211
|
least three years, to give the same user the materials
|
1212
|
specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
|
1213
|
than the cost of performing this distribution.
|
1214
|
|
1215
|
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
|
1216
|
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
|
1217
|
specified materials from the same place.
|
1218
|
|
1219
|
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
|
1220
|
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
|
1221
|
|
1222
|
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
|
1223
|
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
|
1224
|
reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
|
1225
|
the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
|
1226
|
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
|
1227
|
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
|
1228
|
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
|
1229
|
the executable.
|
1230
|
|
1231
|
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
|
1232
|
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
|
1233
|
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
|
1234
|
use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
|
1235
|
distribute.
|
1236
|
|
1237
|
|
1238
|
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
|
1239
|
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
|
1240
|
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
|
1241
|
library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
|
1242
|
the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
|
1243
|
permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
|
1244
|
|
1245
|
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
|
1246
|
based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
|
1247
|
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
|
1248
|
Sections above.
|
1249
|
|
1250
|
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
|
1251
|
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
|
1252
|
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
|
1253
|
|
1254
|
|
1255
|
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
|
1256
|
the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
|
1257
|
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
|
1258
|
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
|
1259
|
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
|
1260
|
or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
|
1261
|
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
|
1262
|
|
1263
|
|
1264
|
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
|
1265
|
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
|
1266
|
distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
|
1267
|
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
|
1268
|
modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
|
1269
|
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
|
1270
|
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
|
1271
|
the Library or works based on it.
|
1272
|
|
1273
|
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
|
1274
|
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
|
1275
|
original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
|
1276
|
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
|
1277
|
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
|
1278
|
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
|
1279
|
this License.
|
1280
|
|
1281
|
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
|
1282
|
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
|
1283
|
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
1284
|
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
|
1285
|
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
|
1286
|
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
|
1287
|
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
|
1288
|
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
|
1289
|
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
|
1290
|
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
|
1291
|
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
|
1292
|
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
|
1293
|
|
1294
|
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
|
1295
|
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended
|
1296
|
to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
|
1297
|
circumstances.
|
1298
|
|
1299
|
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
|
1300
|
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
|
1301
|
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
|
1302
|
integrity of the free software distribution system which is
|
1303
|
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
|
1304
|
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
|
1305
|
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
|
1306
|
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
|
1307
|
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
|
1308
|
impose that choice.
|
1309
|
|
1310
|
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
|
1311
|
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
|
1312
|
|
1313
|
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
|
1314
|
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
|
1315
|
original copyright holder who places the Library under this License
|
1316
|
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
|
1317
|
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
|
1318
|
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
|
1319
|
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
|
1320
|
|
1321
|
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
|
1322
|
versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
|
1323
|
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
|
1324
|
but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
|
1325
|
|
1326
|
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
|
1327
|
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
|
1328
|
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
|
1329
|
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
|
1330
|
the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
|
1331
|
license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
|
1332
|
the Free Software Foundation.
|
1333
|
|
1334
|
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
|
1335
|
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
|
1336
|
write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
|
1337
|
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
|
1338
|
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
|
1339
|
decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
|
1340
|
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
|
1341
|
and reuse of software generally.
|
1342
|
|
1343
|
NO WARRANTY
|
1344
|
|
1345
|
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
|
1346
|
WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
|
1347
|
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
|
1348
|
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
|
1349
|
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
|
1350
|
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
|
1351
|
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
|
1352
|
LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
|
1353
|
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
|
1354
|
|
1355
|
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
|
1356
|
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
|
1357
|
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
|
1358
|
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
|
1359
|
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
|
1360
|
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
|
1361
|
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
|
1362
|
FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
|
1363
|
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
|
1364
|
DAMAGES.

|
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
|
1369
|
|
1370
|
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
|
1371
|
possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
|
1372
|
everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
|
1373
|
redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms
|
1374
|
of the ordinary General Public License).
|
1375
|
|
1376
|
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library.
|
1377
|
It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most
|
1378
|
effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should
|
1379
|
have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full
|
1380
|
notice is found.
|
1381
|
|
1382
|
<one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

Preamble
|
1430
|
|
1431
|
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to
|
1432
|
share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are
|
1433
|
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make
|
1434
|
sure the software is free for all its users.
|
1435
|
|
1436
|
This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some specially
|
1437
|
designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any other libraries
|
1438
|
whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for your libraries, too.
|
1439
|
|
1440
|
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our
|
1441
|
General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom
|
1442
|
to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you
|
1443
|
wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you
|
1444
|
can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
|
1445
|
you know you can do these things.
|
1446
|
|
1447
|
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to
|
1448
|
deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These
|
1449
|
restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute
|
1450
|
copies of the library, or if you modify it.
|
1451
|
|
1452
|
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a
|
1453
|
fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must
|
1454
|
make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link a
|
1455
|
program with the library, you must provide complete object files to the
|
1456
|
recipients so that they can relink them with the library, after making
|
1457
|
changes to the library and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms
|
1458
|
so they know their rights.
|
1459
|
|
1460
|
Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright the
|
1461
|
library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to
|
1462
|
copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
|
1463
|
|
1464
|
Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain that
|
1465
|
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free library. If the
|
1466
|
library is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to
|
1467
|
know that what they have is not the original version, so that any problems
|
1468
|
introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
|
1469
|
|
1470
|
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We
|
1471
|
wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free software will
|
1472
|
individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect transforming the program
|
1473
|
into proprietary software. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
|
1474
|
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
|
1475
|
|
1476
|
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU
|
1477
|
General Public License, which was designed for utility programs. This
|
1478
|
license, the GNU Library General Public License, applies to certain
|
1479
|
designated libraries. This license is quite different from the ordinary one;
|
1480
|
be sure to read it in full, and don't assume that anything in it is the same
|
1481
|
as in the ordinary license.
|
1482
|
|
1483
|
The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is that they
|
1484
|
blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or adding to a program
|
1485
|
and simply using it. Linking a program with a library, without changing the
|
1486
|
library, is in some sense simply using the library, and is analogous to
|
1487
|
running a utility program or application program. However, in a textual and
|
1488
|
legal sense, the linked executable is a combined work, a derivative of the
|
1489
|
original library, and the ordinary General Public License treats it as such.
|
1490
|
|
1491
|
Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General Public
|
1492
|
License for libraries did not effectively promote software sharing, because
|
1493
|
most developers did not use the libraries. We concluded that weaker
|
1494
|
conditions might promote sharing better.
|
1495
|
|
1496
|
However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the users of
|
1497
|
those programs of all benefit from the free status of the libraries
|
1498
|
themselves. This Library General Public License is intended to permit
|
1499
|
developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while preserving your
|
1500
|
freedom as a user of such programs to change the free libraries that are
|
1501
|
incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to achieve this as regards
|
1502
|
changes in header files, but we have achieved it as regards changes in the
|
1503
|
actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this will lead to faster
|
1504
|
development of free libraries.
|
1505
|
|
1506
|
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
|
1507
|
follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a "work based on the
|
1508
|
library" and a "work that uses the library". The former contains code derived
|
1509
|
from the library, while the latter only works together with the library.
|
1510
|
|
1511
|
Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary General
|
1512
|
Public License rather than by this special one.
|
1513
|
|
1514
|
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
|
1515
|
|
1516
|
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library which contains a
|
1517
|
notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may
|
1518
|
be distributed under the terms of this Library General Public License (also
|
1519
|
called "this License"). Each licensee is addressed as "you".
|
1520
|
|
1521
|
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so
|
1522
|
as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of
|
1523
|
those functions and data) to form executables.
|
1524
|
|
1525
|
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work which has
|
1526
|
been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the Library" means
|
1527
|
either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to
|
1528
|
say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or
|
1529
|
with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into another language.
|
1530
|
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term
|
1531
|
"modification".)
|
1532
|
|
1533
|
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
|
1534
|
modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source
|
1535
|
code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition
|
1536
|
files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the
|
1537
|
library.
|
1538
|
|
1539
|
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered
|
1540
|
by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program
|
1541
|
using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is
|
1542
|
covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Library
|
1543
|
(independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether
|
1544
|
that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses
|
1545
|
the Library does.
|
1546
|
|
1547
|
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete
|
1548
|
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously
|
1549
|
and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and
|
1550
|
disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this
|
1551
|
License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this
|
1552
|
License along with the Library.
|
1553
|
|
1554
|
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may
|
1555
|
at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
|
1556
|
|
1557
|
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it,
|
1558
|
thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such
|
1559
|
modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you
|
1560
|
also meet all of these conditions:
|
1561
|
|
1562
|
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
|
1563
|
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating
|
1564
|
that you changed the files and the date of any change.
|
1565
|
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to
|
1566
|
all third parties under the terms of this License.
|
1567
|
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table
|
1568
|
of data to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility,
|
1569
|
other than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must
|
1570
|
make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not
|
1571
|
supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs
|
1572
|
whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.
|
1573
|
|
1574
|
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a
|
1575
|
purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the application.
|
1576
|
Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied function or
|
1577
|
table used by this function must be optional: if the application does not
|
1578
|
supply it, the square root function must still compute square roots.)
|
1579
|
|
1580
|
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable
|
1581
|
sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably
|
1582
|
considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License,
|
1583
|
and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
|
1584
|
separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole
|
1585
|
which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be
|
1586
|
on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to
|
1587
|
the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
|
1588
|
|
1589
|
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your
|
1590
|
rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the
|
1591
|
right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on
|
1592
|
the Library.
|
1593
|
|
1594
|
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with
|
1595
|
the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or
|
1596
|
distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this
|
1597
|
License.
|
1598
|
|
1599
|
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License
|
1600
|
instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must
|
1601
|
alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the
|
1602
|
ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License.
|
1603
|
(If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License
|
1604
|
has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not
|
1605
|
make any other change in these notices.
|
1606
|
|
1607
|
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy,
|
1608
|
so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies
|
1609
|
and derivative works made from that copy.
|
1610
|
|
1611
|
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library
|
1612
|
into a program that is not a library.
|
1613
|
|
1614
|
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it,
|
1615
|
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
|
1616
|
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete
|
1617
|
corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under
|
1618
|
the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
|
1619
|
interchange.
|
1620
|
|
1621
|
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a
|
1622
|
designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code
|
1623
|
from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code,
|
1624
|
even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the
|
1625
|
object code.
|
1626
|
|
1627
|
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but
|
1628
|
is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is
|
1629
|
called a "work that uses the Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not a
|
1630
|
derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this
|
1631
|
License.
|
1632
|
|
1633
|
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library creates an
|
1634
|
executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions
|
1635
|
of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the library". The executable
|
1636
|
is therefore covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution
|
1637
|
of such executables.
|
1638
|
|
1639
|
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file that is
|
1640
|
part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work of
|
1641
|
the Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is
|
1642
|
especially significant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if
|
1643
|
the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is not
|
1644
|
precisely defined by law.
|
1645
|
|
1646
|
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts
|
1647
|
and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less
|
1648
|
in length), then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless of
|
1649
|
whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables containing this object
|
1650
|
code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)
|
1651
|
|
1652
|
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the
|
1653
|
object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables
|
1654
|
containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are
|
1655
|
linked directly with the Library itself.
|
1656
|
|
1657
|
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or link a
|
1658
|
"work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a work containing
|
1659
|
portions of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice,
|
1660
|
provided that the terms permit modification of the work for the customer's
|
1661
|
own use and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.
|
1662
|
|
1663
|
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is
|
1664
|
used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You
|
1665
|
must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays
|
1666
|
copyright notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library
|
1667
|
among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this
|
1668
|
License. Also, you must do one of these things:
|
1669
|
|
1670
|
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable
|
1671
|
source code for the Library including whatever changes were used in the work
|
1672
|
(which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is
|
1673
|
an executable linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable
|
1674
|
"work that uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
|
1675
|
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified executable
|
1676
|
containing the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes
|
1677
|
the contents of definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able
|
1678
|
to recompile the application to use the modified definitions.)
|
1679
|
b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three
|
1680
|
years, to give the same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above,
|
1681
|
for a charge no more than the cost of performing this distribution.
|
1682
|
c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a
|
1683
|
designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified
|
1684
|
materials from the same place.
|
1685
|
d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or
|
1686
|
that you have already sent this user a copy.
|
1687
|
|
1688
|
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the Library" must
|
1689
|
include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable
|
1690
|
from it. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need
|
1691
|
not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
|
1692
|
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
|
1693
|
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself
|
1694
|
accompanies the executable.
|
1695
|
|
1696
|
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of
|
1697
|
other proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating
|
1698
|
system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library
|
1699
|
together in an executable that you distribute.
|
1700
|
|
1701
|
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library
|
1702
|
side-by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not
|
1703
|
covered by this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided
|
1704
|
that the separate distribution of the work based on the Library and of the
|
1705
|
other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do
|
1706
|
these two things:
|
1707
|
|
1708
|
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on
|
1709
|
the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be
|
1710
|
distributed under the terms of the Sections above.
|
1711
|
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part
|
1712
|
of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
|
1713
|
accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
|
1714
|
|
1715
|
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library
|
1716
|
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to
|
1717
|
copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and
|
1718
|
will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties
|
1719
|
who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not
|
1720
|
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
|
1721
|
compliance.
|
1722
|
|
1723
|
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.
|
1724
|
However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the
|
1725
|
Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you
|
1726
|
do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the
|
1727
|
Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of
|
1728
|
this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
|
1729
|
distributing or modifying the Library or works based on it.
|
1730
|
|
1731
|
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
|
1732
|
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original
|
1733
|
licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to
|
1734
|
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on
|
1735
|
the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not
|
1736
|
responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
|
1737
|
|
1738
|
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
|
1739
|
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
|
1740
|
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
1741
|
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse
|
1742
|
you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to
|
1743
|
satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other
|
1744
|
pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the
|
1745
|
Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit
|
1746
|
royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive copies
|
1747
|
directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both
|
1748
|
it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the
|
1749
|
Library.
|
1750
|
|
1751
|
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
|
1752
|
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, and
|
1753
|
the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
|
1754
|
|
1755
|
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents
|
1756
|
or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims;
|
1757
|
this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free
|
1758
|
software distribution system which is implemented by public license
|
1759
|
practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of
|
1760
|
software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent
|
1761
|
application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or
|
1762
|
she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee
|
1763
|
cannot impose that choice.
|
1764
|
|
1765
|
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a
|
1766
|
consequence of the rest of this License.
|
1767
|
|
1768
|
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain
|
1769
|
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original
|
1770
|
copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add an
|
1771
|
explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so
|
1772
|
that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded.
|
1773
|
In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the
|
1774
|
body of this License.
|
1775
|
|
1776
|
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
|
1777
|
the Library General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
|
1778
|
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
|
1779
|
address new problems or concerns.
|
1780
|
|
1781
|
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
|
1782
|
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later
|
1783
|
version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
|
1784
|
that version or of any later version published by the Free Software
|
1785
|
Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version number, you may
|
1786
|
choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
|
1787
|
|
1788
|
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs
|
1789
|
whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the
|
1790
|
author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
|
1791
|
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make
|
1792
|
exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of
|
1793
|
preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of
|
1794
|
promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
|
1795
|
|
1796
|
NO WARRANTY
|
1797
|
|
1798
|
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR
|
1799
|
THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE
|
1800
|
STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE
|
1801
|
LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
|
1802
|
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
|
1803
|
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
|
1804
|
PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE,
|
1805
|
YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
|
1806
|
|
1807
|
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
|
1808
|
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
|
1809
|
REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
|
1810
|
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
|
1811
|
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
|
1812
|
LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR
|
1813
|
THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
|
1814
|
SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
|
1815
|
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

|
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
|
1818
|
|
1819
|
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest possible
|
1820
|
use to the public, we recommend making it free software that everyone can
|
1821
|
redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting redistribution under
|
1822
|
these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the ordinary General
|
1823
|
Public License).
|
1824
|
|
1825
|
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
|
1826
|
safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
|
1827
|
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
|
1828
|
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
|
1829
|
|
1830
|
one line to give the library's name and an idea of what it does.
