103 | ||
104 | Copyright (C) 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | |
105 | 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA | |
106 | ||
107 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies | |
108 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. | |
109 | ||
110 | [This is the first released version of the library GPL. It is | |
111 | numbered 2 because it goes with version 2 of the ordinary GPL.] | |
112 | ||
113 | @subsection Preamble | |
114 | ||
115 | The licenses for most software are designed to take away your | |
116 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public | |
117 | Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change | |
118 | free software -- to make sure the software is free for all its users. | |
119 | ||
120 | This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some | |
121 | specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any | |
122 | other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for | |
123 | your libraries, too. | |
124 | ||
125 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not | |
126 | price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you | |
127 | have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for | |
128 | this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it | |
129 | if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it | |
130 | in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. | |
131 | ||
132 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid | |
133 | anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. | |
134 | These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if | |
135 | you distribute copies of the library, or if you modify it. | |
136 | ||
137 | For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis | |
138 | or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave | |
139 | you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source | |
140 | code. If you link a program with the library, you must provide | |
141 | complete object files to the recipients so that they can relink them | |
142 | with the library, after making changes to the library and recompiling | |
143 | it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. | |
144 | ||
145 | Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright | |
146 | the library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal | |
147 | permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. | |
148 | ||
149 | Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain | |
150 | that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free | |
151 | library. If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we | |
152 | want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original | |
153 | version, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on | |
154 | the original authors' reputations. | |
155 | ||
156 | Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software | |
157 | patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free | |
158 | software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect | |
159 | transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent this, | |
160 | we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's | |
161 | free use or not licensed at all. | |
162 | ||
163 | Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary | |
164 | GNU General Public License, which was designed for utility programs. This | |
165 | license, the GNU Library General Public License, applies to certain | |
166 | designated libraries. This license is quite different from the ordinary | |
167 | one; be sure to read it in full, and don't assume that anything in it is | |
168 | the same as in the ordinary license. | |
169 | ||
170 | The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is that | |
171 | they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or adding to a | |
172 | program and simply using it. Linking a program with a library, without | |
173 | changing the library, is in some sense simply using the library, and is | |
174 | analogous to running a utility program or application program. However, in | |
175 | a textual and legal sense, the linked executable is a combined work, a | |
176 | derivative of the original library, and the ordinary General Public License | |
177 | treats it as such. | |
178 | ||
179 | Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General | |
180 | Public License for libraries did not effectively promote software | |
181 | sharing, because most developers did not use the libraries. We | |
182 | concluded that weaker conditions might promote sharing better. | |
183 | ||
184 | However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the | |
185 | users of those programs of all benefit from the free status of the | |
186 | libraries themselves. This Library General Public License is intended to | |
187 | permit developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while | |
188 | preserving your freedom as a user of such programs to change the free | |
189 | libraries that are incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to achieve | |
190 | this as regards changes in header files, but we have achieved it as regards | |
191 | changes in the actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this | |
192 | will lead to faster development of free libraries. | |
193 | ||
194 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and | |
195 | modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a | |
196 | "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The | |
197 | former contains code derived from the library, while the latter only | |
198 | works together with the library. | |
199 | ||
200 | Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary | |
201 | General Public License rather than by this special one. | |
202 | ||
203 | <center> | |
204 | GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE | |
205 | ||
206 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION | |
207 | </center> | |
208 | ||
209 | 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library which | |
210 | contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized | |
211 | party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Library | |
212 | General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is | |
213 | addressed as "you". | |
214 | ||
215 | A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data | |
216 | prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs | |
217 | (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. | |
218 | ||
219 | The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work | |
220 | which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the | |
221 | Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under | |
222 | copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a | |
223 | portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated | |
224 | straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is | |
225 | included without limitation in the term "modification".) | |
226 | ||
227 | "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for | |
228 | making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means | |
229 | all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated | |
230 | interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation | |
231 | and installation of the library. | |
232 | ||
233 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not | |
234 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of | |
235 | running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from | |
236 | such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based | |
237 | on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for | |
238 | writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does | |
239 | and what the program that uses the Library does. | |
240 | ||
241 | 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's | |
242 | complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that | |
243 | you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an | |
244 | appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact | |
245 | all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any | |
246 | warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the | |
247 | Library. | |
248 | ||
249 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, | |
250 | and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a | |
251 | fee. | |
252 | ||
253 | 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion | |
254 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and | |
255 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 | |
256 | above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: | |
257 | ||
258 | \begin{indented}{1cm} | |
259 | a) The modified work must itself be a software library. | |
260 | ||
261 | b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices | |
262 | stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. | |
263 | ||
264 | c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no | |
265 | charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. | |
266 | ||
267 | d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a | |
268 | table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses | |
269 | the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility | |
270 | is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, | |
271 | in the event an application does not supply such function or | |
272 | table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of | |
273 | its purpose remains meaningful. | |
274 | ||
275 | (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has | |
276 | a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the | |
277 | application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any | |
278 | application-supplied function or table used by this function must | |
279 | be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square | |
280 | root function must still compute square roots.) | |
281 | \end{indented} | |
282 | ||
283 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If | |
284 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, | |
285 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in | |
286 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those | |
287 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you | |
288 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based | |
289 | on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of | |
290 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the | |
291 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote | |
292 | it. | |
293 | ||
294 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest | |
295 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to | |
296 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or | |
297 | collective works based on the Library. | |
298 | ||
299 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library | |
300 | with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of | |
301 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under | |
302 | the scope of this License. | |
303 | ||
304 | 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public | |
305 | License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do | |
306 | this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so | |
307 | that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, | |
308 | instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the | |
309 | ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify | |
310 | that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in | |
311 | these notices. | |
312 | ||
313 | Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for | |
314 | that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all | |
315 | subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. | |
316 | ||
317 | This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of | |
318 | the Library into a program that is not a library. | |
319 | ||
320 | 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or | |
321 | derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form | |
322 | under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany | |
323 | it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which | |
324 | must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a | |
325 | medium customarily used for software interchange. | |
326 | ||
327 | If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy | |
328 | from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the | |
329 | source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to | |
330 | distribute the source code, even though third parties are not | |
331 | compelled to copy the source along with the object code. | |
332 | ||
333 | 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the | |
334 | Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or | |
335 | linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a | |
336 | work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and | |
337 | therefore falls outside the scope of this License. | |
338 | ||
339 | However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library | |
340 | creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it | |
341 | contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the | |
342 | library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. | |
343 | Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. | |
344 | ||
345 | When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file | |
346 | that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a | |
347 | derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. | |
348 | Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be | |
349 | linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The | |
350 | threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. | |
351 | ||
352 | If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data | |
353 | structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline | |
354 | functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object | |
355 | file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative | |
356 | work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the | |
357 | Library will still fall under Section 6.) | |
358 | ||
359 | Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may | |
360 | distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. | |
361 | Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, | |
362 | whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. | |
363 | ||
364 | 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or | |
365 | link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a | |
366 | work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work | |
367 | under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit | |
368 | modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse | |
369 | engineering for debugging such modifications. | |
370 | ||
371 | You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the | |
372 | Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by | |
373 | this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work | |
374 | during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the | |
375 | copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference | |
376 | directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one | |
377 | of these things: | |
378 | ||
379 | \begin{indented}{1cm} | |
380 | a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding | |
381 | machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever | |
382 | changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under | |
383 | Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked | |
384 | with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that | |
385 | uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the | |
386 | user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified | |
387 | executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood | |
388 | that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the | |
389 | Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application | |
390 | to use the modified definitions.) | |
391 | ||
392 | b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at | |
393 | least three years, to give the same user the materials | |
394 | specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more | |
395 | than the cost of performing this distribution. | |
396 | ||
397 | c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy | |
398 | from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above | |
399 | specified materials from the same place. | |
400 | ||
401 | d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these | |
402 | materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. | |
403 | \end{indented} | |
404 | ||
405 | For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the | |
406 | Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for | |
407 | reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, | |
408 | the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally | |
409 | distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major | |
410 | components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on | |
411 | which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies | |
412 | the executable. | |
413 | ||
414 | It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license | |
415 | restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally | |
416 | accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot | |
417 | use both them and the Library together in an executable that you | |
418 | distribute. | |
419 | ||
420 | 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the | |
421 | Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library | |
422 | facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined | |
423 | library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on | |
424 | the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise | |
425 | permitted, and provided that you do these two things: | |
426 | ||
427 | \begin{indented}{1cm} | |
428 | a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work | |
429 | based on the Library, uncombined with any other library | |
430 | facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the | |
431 | Sections above. | |
432 | ||
433 | b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact | |
434 | that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining | |
435 | where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. | |
436 | \end{indented} | |
437 | ||
438 | 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute | |
439 | the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any | |
440 | attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or | |
441 | distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your | |
442 | rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, | |
443 | or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses | |
444 | terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. | |
445 | ||
446 | 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not | |
447 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or | |
448 | distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are | |
449 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by | |
450 | modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the | |
451 | Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and | |
452 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying | |
453 | the Library or works based on it. | |

455 | 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the | |
456 | Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the | |
457 | original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library | |
458 | subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further | |
459 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. | |
460 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to | |
461 | this License. | |
462 | ||
463 | 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent | |
464 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), | |
465 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or | |
466 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not | |
467 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot | |
468 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this | |
469 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you | |
470 | may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent | |
471 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by | |
472 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then | |
473 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to | |
474 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. | |
475 | ||
476 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any | |
477 | particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, | |
478 | and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. | |
479 | ||
480 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any | |
481 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any | |
482 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the | |
483 | integrity of the free software distribution system which is | |
484 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made | |
485 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed | |
486 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that | |
487 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing | |
488 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot | |
489 | impose that choice. | |
490 | ||
491 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to | |
492 | be a consequence of the rest of this License. | |
493 | ||
494 | 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in | |
495 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the | |
496 | original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add | |
497 | an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, | |
498 | so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus | |
499 | excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if | |
500 | written in the body of this License. | |
501 | ||
502 | 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new | |
503 | versions of the Library General Public License from time to time. | |
504 | Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, | |
505 | but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. | |
506 | ||
507 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library | |
508 | specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and | |
509 | "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and | |
510 | conditions either of that version or of any later version published by | |
511 | the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a | |
512 | license version number, you may choose any version ever published by | |
513 | the Free Software Foundation. | |
514 | ||
515 | 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free | |
516 | programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, | |
517 | write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is | |
518 | copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free | |
519 | Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our | |
520 | decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status | |
521 | of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing | |
522 | and reuse of software generally. | |
523 | ||
524 | \begin{center} | |
525 | NO WARRANTY | |
526 | \end{center} | |
527 | ||
528 | 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO | |
529 | WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. | |
530 | EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR | |
531 | OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY | |
532 | KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE | |
533 | IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR | |
534 | PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE | |
535 | LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME | |
536 | THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. | |
537 | ||
538 | 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN | |
539 | WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY | |
540 | AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU | |
541 | FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR | |
542 | CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE | |
543 | LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING | |
544 | RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A | |
545 | FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF | |
546 | SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH | |
547 | DAMAGES. | |

554 | @subsection Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries | |
555 | ||
556 | If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest | |
557 | possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that | |
558 | everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting | |
559 | redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the | |
560 | ordinary General Public License). | |
561 | ||
562 | To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is | |
563 | safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively | |
564 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the | |
565 | "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. | |
566 | ||
567 | @verbatim | |
568 | <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> | |
569 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> | |
570 | ||
571 | This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or | |
572 | modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public | |
573 | License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either | |
574 | version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. | |
575 | ||
576 | This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, | |
577 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of | |
578 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU | |
579 | Library General Public License for more details. | |
580 | ||
581 | You should have received a copy of the GNU Library General Public | |
582 | License along with this library; if not, write to the Free | |
583 | Software Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA. | |
584 | @endverbatim | |
585 | ||
586 | ||
587 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. | |
588 | ||
589 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your | |
590 | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if | |
591 | necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: | |
592 | ||
593 | @verbatim | |
594 | Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the | |
595 | library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker. | |
596 | ||
