160[This is the first released version of the library GPL. It is
161numbered 2 because it goes with version 2 of the ordinary GPL.]
ccaaf5b0 162
605d715d 163\wxheading{Preamble}
ccaaf5b0 164
457e6c54 165The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
605d715d 166freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
ccaaf5b0 167Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
605d715d 168free software -- to make sure the software is free for all its users.
ccaaf5b0 169
457e6c54 170This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some
ccaaf5b0 171specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any
457e6c54 172other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for
ccaaf5b0
RR
173your libraries, too.
174
457e6c54
JS
175When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
176price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
ccaaf5b0
RR
177have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
178this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
179if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
180in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
181
457e6c54 182To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
ccaaf5b0
RR
183anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
184These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if
185you distribute copies of the library, or if you modify it.
186
457e6c54 187For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
ccaaf5b0 188or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
457e6c54
JS
189you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
190code. If you link a program with the library, you must provide
ccaaf5b0
RR
191complete object files to the recipients so that they can relink them
192with the library, after making changes to the library and recompiling
457e6c54 193it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
ccaaf5b0 194
457e6c54 195Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright
ccaaf5b0
RR
196the library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal
197permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
198
457e6c54 199Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain
ccaaf5b0 200that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
457e6c54 201library. If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we
ccaaf5b0
RR
202want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original
203version, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on
204the original authors' reputations.
205
457e6c54
JS
206Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
207patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free
ccaaf5b0 208software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect
457e6c54 209transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent this,
ccaaf5b0
RR
210we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's
211free use or not licensed at all.
212
457e6c54
JS
213Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary
214GNU General Public License, which was designed for utility programs. This
ccaaf5b0 215license, the GNU Library General Public License, applies to certain
457e6c54 216designated libraries. This license is quite different from the ordinary
ccaaf5b0
RR
217one; be sure to read it in full, and don't assume that anything in it is
218the same as in the ordinary license.
219
457e6c54 220The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is that
ccaaf5b0 221they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or adding to a
457e6c54 222program and simply using it. Linking a program with a library, without
ccaaf5b0 223changing the library, is in some sense simply using the library, and is
457e6c54 224analogous to running a utility program or application program. However, in
ccaaf5b0
RR
225a textual and legal sense, the linked executable is a combined work, a
226derivative of the original library, and the ordinary General Public License
227treats it as such.
228
457e6c54 229Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General
ccaaf5b0 230Public License for libraries did not effectively promote software
457e6c54 231sharing, because most developers did not use the libraries. We
ccaaf5b0
RR
232concluded that weaker conditions might promote sharing better.
233
457e6c54 234However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the
ccaaf5b0 235users of those programs of all benefit from the free status of the
457e6c54 236libraries themselves. This Library General Public License is intended to
ccaaf5b0
RR
237permit developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while
238preserving your freedom as a user of such programs to change the free
457e6c54 239libraries that are incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to achieve
ccaaf5b0 240this as regards changes in header files, but we have achieved it as regards
457e6c54 241changes in the actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this
ccaaf5b0
RR
242will lead to faster development of free libraries.
243
457e6c54
JS
244The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
245modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
246"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
ccaaf5b0
RR
247former contains code derived from the library, while the latter only
248works together with the library.
249
457e6c54 250Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary
ccaaf5b0
RR
251General Public License rather than by this special one.

255 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
605d715d 256\end{center}
ccaaf5b0 257
457e6c54 2580. This License Agreement applies to any software library which
ccaaf5b0
RR
259contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized
260party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Library
457e6c54 261General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is
ccaaf5b0
RR
262addressed as "you".
263
457e6c54 264A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
ccaaf5b0
RR
265prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
266(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
267
457e6c54
JS
268The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
269which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
ccaaf5b0
RR
270Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
271copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
272portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
457e6c54 273straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
ccaaf5b0
RR
274included without limitation in the term "modification".)
275
457e6c54
JS
276"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
277making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
ccaaf5b0
RR
278all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
279interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
280and installation of the library.
281
457e6c54
JS
282Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
283covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
ccaaf5b0
RR
284running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
285such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
286on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
457e6c54 287writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
ccaaf5b0 288and what the program that uses the Library does.
457e6c54
JS
289
2901. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
ccaaf5b0
RR
291complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
292you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
293appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
294all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
295warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
296Library.
297
457e6c54 298You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
ccaaf5b0
RR
299and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
300fee.
301
457e6c54 3022. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
ccaaf5b0
RR
303of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
304distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
305above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
306
605d715d 307\begin{indented}{1cm}
457e6c54
JS
308a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
309
310b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
311stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
312
313c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
314charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
315
316d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
317table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
318the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
319is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
320in the event an application does not supply such function or
321table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
322its purpose remains meaningful.
323
324(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
325a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
326application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
327application-supplied function or table used by this function must
328be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
329root function must still compute square roots.)
605d715d 330\end{indented}
ccaaf5b0 331
457e6c54 332These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
ccaaf5b0
RR
333identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
334and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
335themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
457e6c54 336sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
ccaaf5b0
RR
337distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
338on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
339this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
340entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
341it.
342
343Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
344your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
345exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
346collective works based on the Library.
347
348In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
349with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
350a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
351the scope of this License.
352
457e6c54
JS
3533. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
354License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
ccaaf5b0
RR
355this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
356that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
457e6c54 357instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
ccaaf5b0 358ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
457e6c54 359that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
ccaaf5b0
RR
360these notices.
361
457e6c54 362Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
ccaaf5b0
RR
363that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
364subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
365
457e6c54 366This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
ccaaf5b0
RR
367the Library into a program that is not a library.
368
457e6c54 3694. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
ccaaf5b0
RR
370derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
371under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
372it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
373must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
374medium customarily used for software interchange.
375
457e6c54 376If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
ccaaf5b0
RR
377from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
378source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
379distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
380compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
381
457e6c54 3825. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
ccaaf5b0 383Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
457e6c54 384linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
ccaaf5b0
RR
385work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
386therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
387
457e6c54 388However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
ccaaf5b0
RR
389creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
390contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
457e6c54 391library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
ccaaf5b0
RR
392Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
393
457e6c54 394When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
ccaaf5b0
RR
395that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
396derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
397Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
457e6c54 398linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
ccaaf5b0
RR
399threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
400
457e6c54 401If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
ccaaf5b0
RR
402structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
403functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
404file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
457e6c54 405work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
ccaaf5b0
RR
406Library will still fall under Section 6.)
407
457e6c54 408Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
ccaaf5b0
RR
409distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
410Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
411whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
412
457e6c54 4136. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or
ccaaf5b0
RR
414link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
415work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
416under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
417modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
418engineering for debugging such modifications.
419
457e6c54 420You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
ccaaf5b0 421Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
457e6c54 422this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
ccaaf5b0
RR
423during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
424copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
457e6c54 425directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
ccaaf5b0
RR
426of these things:
427
605d715d 428\begin{indented}{1cm}
457e6c54
JS
429a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
430machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
431changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
432Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
433with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
434uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
435user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
436executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
437that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
438Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
439to use the modified definitions.)
440
441b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
442least three years, to give the same user the materials
443specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
444than the cost of performing this distribution.
445
446c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
447from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
448specified materials from the same place.
449
450d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
451materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
605d715d 452\end{indented}
ccaaf5b0 453
457e6c54 454For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
ccaaf5b0 455Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
457e6c54 456reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
ccaaf5b0
RR
457the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally
458distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
459components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
460which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
461the executable.
462
457e6c54 463It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
ccaaf5b0 464restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
457e6c54 465accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
ccaaf5b0
RR
466use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
467distribute.
468
457e6c54 4697. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
ccaaf5b0
RR
470Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
471facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
472library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
473the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
474permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
475
605d715d 476\begin{indented}{1cm}
457e6c54
JS
477a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
478based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
479facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
480Sections above.
481
482b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
483that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
484where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
605d715d 485\end{indented}
ccaaf5b0 486
457e6c54
JS
4878. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
488the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
ccaaf5b0
RR
489attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
490distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
457e6c54 491rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
ccaaf5b0
RR
492or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
493terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
494
457e6c54
JS
4959. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
496signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
497distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
498prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
ccaaf5b0
RR
499modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
500Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
501all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
502the Library or works based on it.
503
457e6c54 50410. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
ccaaf5b0
RR
505Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
506original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
457e6c54 507subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
ccaaf5b0
RR
508restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
509You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
510this License.
511
457e6c54 51211. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
ccaaf5b0
RR
513infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
514conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
515otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
457e6c54 516excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
ccaaf5b0
RR
517distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
518License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
457e6c54 519may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
ccaaf5b0
RR
520license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
521all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
522the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
523refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
524
525If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
526particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
527and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
528
529It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
530patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
531such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
532integrity of the free software distribution system which is
457e6c54 533implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
ccaaf5b0
RR
534generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
535through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
536system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
537to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
538impose that choice.
539
540This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
541be a consequence of the rest of this License.
542
457e6c54 54312. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
ccaaf5b0
RR
544certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
545original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
546an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
547so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
457e6c54 548excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
ccaaf5b0
RR
549written in the body of this License.
550
457e6c54 55113. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
ccaaf5b0
RR
552versions of the Library General Public License from time to time.
553Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
554but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
555
457e6c54 556Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
ccaaf5b0
RR
557specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
558"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
559conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
457e6c54 560the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
ccaaf5b0
RR
561license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
562the Free Software Foundation.
563
457e6c54 56414. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
ccaaf5b0 565programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
457e6c54 566write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
ccaaf5b0 567copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
457e6c54 568Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
ccaaf5b0
RR
569decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
570of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
571and reuse of software generally.
572

457e6c54 574NO WARRANTY
605d715d 575\end{center}
ccaaf5b0 576
457e6c54 57715. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
ccaaf5b0
RR
578WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
579EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
580OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
581KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
582IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
457e6c54
JS
583PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
584LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
ccaaf5b0
RR
585THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
586
457e6c54 58716. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
ccaaf5b0
RR
588WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
589AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
590FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
591CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
592LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
593RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
594FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
595SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
596DAMAGES.

605d715d 603\wxheading{Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries}
ccaaf5b0 604
457e6c54 605If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
ccaaf5b0 606possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
457e6c54 607everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
ccaaf5b0
RR
608redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
609ordinary General Public License).
610
457e6c54 611To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
ccaaf5b0
RR
612safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
613convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
614"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
