GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
19+
Version 2.1, February 1999
20+
21+
Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
22+
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
23+
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
24+
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
25+
26+
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts
27+
as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence
28+
the version number 2.1.]
29+
30+
Preamble
31+
32+
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
33+
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
34+
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
35+
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
36+
37+
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
38+
specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
39+
Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You
40+
can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
41+
this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
42+
strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
43+
44+
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
45+
not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
46+
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
47+
for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
48+
it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
49+
it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
50+
these things.
51+
52+
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
53+
distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
54+
rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
55+
you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
56+
57+
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
58+
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
59+
you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
60+
code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide
61+
complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
62+
with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
63+
it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
64+
65+
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
66+
library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
67+
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
68+
69+
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
70+
there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is
71+
modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
72+
that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
73+
author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
74+
introduced by others.
75+
76+
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
77+
any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot
78+
effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
79+
restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that
80+
any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
81+
consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
82+
83+
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
84+
ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser
85+
General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
86+
is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use
87+
this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
88+
libraries into non-free programs.
89+
90+
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
91+
a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
92+
combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
93+
General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
94+
entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
95+
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
96+
the library.
97+
98+
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
99+
does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
100+
Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less
101+
of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages
102+
are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
103+
libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
104+
special circumstances.
105+
106+
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
107+
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
108+
a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be
109+
allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free
110+
library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this
111+
case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
112+
software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
113+
114+
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
115+
programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
116+
free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
117+
non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
118+
operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
119+
system.
120+
121+
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
122+
users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
123+
linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
124+
that program using a modified version of the Library.
125+
126+
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
127+
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
128+
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
129+
former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
130+
be combined with the library in order to run.
131+
132+
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
133+
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
134+
135+
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
136+
program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
137+
other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
138+
this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
139+
Each licensee is addressed as "you".
140+
141+
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
142+
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
143+
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
144+
145+
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
146+
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
147+
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
148+
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
149+
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
150+
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
151+
included without limitation in the term "modification".)
152+
153+
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
154+
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
155+
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
156+
interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
157+
and installation of the library.
158+
159+
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
160+
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
161+
running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
162+
such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
163+
on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
164+
writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
165+
and what the program that uses the Library does.
166+
167+
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
168+
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
169+
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
170+
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
171+
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
172+
warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
173+
Library.
174+
175+
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
176+
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
177+
fee.
178+
179+
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
180+
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
181+
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
182+
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
183+
184+
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
185+
186+
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
187+
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
188+
189+
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
190+
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
191+
192+
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
193+
table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
194+
the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
195+
is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
196+
in the event an application does not supply such function or
197+
table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
198+
its purpose remains meaningful.
199+
200+
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
201+
a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
202+
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
203+
application-supplied function or table used by this function must
204+
be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
205+
root function must still compute square roots.)
206+
207+
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
208+
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
209+
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
210+
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
211+
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
212+
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
213+
on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
214+
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
215+
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
216+
it.
217+
218+
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
219+
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
220+
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
221+
collective works based on the Library.
222+
223+
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
224+
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
225+
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
226+
the scope of this License.
227+
228+
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
229+
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
230+
this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
231+
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
232+
instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
233+
ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
234+
that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
235+
these notices.
236+
237+
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
238+
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
239+
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
240+
241+
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
242+
the Library into a program that is not a library.
243+
244+
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
245+
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
246+
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
247+
it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
248+
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
249+
medium customarily used for software interchange.
250+
251+
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
252+
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
253+
source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
254+
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
255+
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
256+
257+
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
258+
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
259+
linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
260+
work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
261+
therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
262+
263+
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
264+
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
265+
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
266+
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
267+
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
268+
269+
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
270+
that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
271+
derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
272+
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
273+
linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
274+
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
275+
276+
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
277+
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
278+
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
279+
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
280+
work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
281+
Library will still fall under Section 6.)
282+
283+
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
284+
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
285+
Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
286+
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
287+
288+
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
289+
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
290+
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
291+
under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
292+
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
293+
engineering for debugging such modifications.
294+
295+
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
296+
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
297+
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
298+
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
299+
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
300+
directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
301+
of these things:
302+
303+
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
304+
machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
305+
changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
306+
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
307+
with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
308+
uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
309+
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
310+
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
311+
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
312+
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
313+
to use the modified definitions.)
314+
315+
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
316+
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
317+
copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
318+
rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
319+
will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
320+
the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
321+
interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
322+
323+
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
324+
least three years, to give the same user the materials
325+
specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
326+
than the cost of performing this distribution.
327+
328+
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
329+
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
330+
specified materials from the same place.
331+
332+
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
333+
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
334+
335+
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
336+
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
337+
reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
338+
the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
339+
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
340+
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
341+
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
342+
the executable.
343+
344+
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
345+
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
346+
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
347+
use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
348+
distribute.
349+
350+
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
351+
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
352+
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
353+
library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
354+
the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
355+
permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
356+
357+
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
358+
based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
359+
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
360+
Sections above.
361+
362+
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
363+
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
364+
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
365+
366+
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
367+
the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
368+
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
369+
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
370+
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
371+
or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
372+
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
373+
374+
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
375+
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
376+
distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
377+
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
378+
modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
379+
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
380+
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
381+
the Library or works based on it.
382+
383+
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
384+
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
385+
original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
386+
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
387+
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
388+
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
389+
this License.
390+
391+
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
392+
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
393+
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
394+
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
395+
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
396+
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
397+
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
398+
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
399+
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
400+
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
401+
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
402+
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
403+
404+
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
405+
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
406+
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
407+
408+
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
409+
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
410+
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
411+
integrity of the free software distribution system which is
412+
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
413+
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
414+
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
415+
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
416+
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
417+
impose that choice.
418+
419+
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
420+
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
421+
422+
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
423+
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
424+
original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
425+
an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
426+
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
427+
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
428+
written in the body of this License.
429+
430+
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new

versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
432+
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
433+
but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
434+
435+
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
436+
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
437+
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
438+
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
439+
the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
440+
license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
441+
the Free Software Foundation.
442+
443+
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
444+
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
445+
write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
446+
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
447+
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
448+
decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
449+
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
450+
and reuse of software generally.
451+
452+
NO WARRANTY
453+
454+
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
455+
WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
456+
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
457+
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
458+
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
459+
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
460+
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
461+
LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
462+
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
463+
464+
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
465+
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
466+
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
467+
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
468+
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
469+
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
470+
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
471+
FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
472+
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
473+
DAMAGES.
