EULA
the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the Library will not necessarily
be able to recompile the application to use the modified definitions.); b) Use a suitable
shared library mechanism for linking with the Library.A suitable mechanism is one that
(1) uses at run time a copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly
with a modified version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified
version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with;c) Accompany
the work with a written offer,valid for at least three years, to give the same user the
materials specified in Subsection 6a, above,for a charge no more than the cost of
performing this distribution; d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to
copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified
materials from the same place; and e) Verify that the user has already received a copy
of these materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the “work that uses the Library” must include
any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable from it. However,
as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler,
kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs,unless that
component itself accompanies the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary
libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction
means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
distribute.
7.You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a
single library together with other library facilities not covered by this License, and
distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the work
based on the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and
provided that you do these two things: a) Accompany the combined library with a copy
of the same work based on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities.
This must be distributed under the terms of the Sections above; and b) Give prominent
notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library,
and explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
8.You may not copy,modify, sublicense,link with, or distribute the Library except as expressly
provided under this License.Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,sublicense, link with,
or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However,parties who have received copies, or rights,from you under this License will
not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
9.You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.However,
nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Library or its derivative
works.These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.Therefore,
by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate
your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributing or modifying the Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient
automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute,link with
or modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions.You may not impose any
further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein.You are not
responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any
other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by
court order,agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they
do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to
satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obliga-
tions, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Library at all.For example, if a
patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those
who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy
both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular
circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,and the section as a
whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property
right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose
of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system which is implemented
by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide
range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application
of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute
software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence
of the rest of this License.
12.If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by
patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the
Library under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries
not thus excluded. In such case,this License incorporates the limitation as if written
in the body of this License.
13.The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser
General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to
the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number.If the Library specifies a version
number of this License which applies to it and “any later version,” you have the option
of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version
published by the Free Software Foundation.If the Library does not specify a license
version number,you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
Foundation.
14.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution
conditions are incompatible with these, write to the author to ask for permission.For
software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation,write to the Free
Software Foundation;we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be
guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
15.BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,THERE IS NO WARRANTY
FOR THE LIBRARY,TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT
WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY “AS IS”WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS
WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE,YOU ASSUME THE COST
OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE,BE LIABLE TO YOU
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,INCIDENTAL OR CONSE-
QUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES
OR A FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE),
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
