{GNU Library General Public License, Version
2}
154 Copyright (C)

155 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA
02139, USA
157 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
158 of this license
document, but changing it is not allowed.
160 [This is the first released version of the library GPL. It is
161 numbered
2 because it goes with version
2 of the ordinary GPL.
]
165 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
166 freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
167 Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
168 free software -- to make sure the software is free for all its users.
170 This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some
171 specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any
172 other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for
175 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
176 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
177 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
178 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
179 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
180 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
182 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
183 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
184 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if
185 you distribute copies of the library, or if you modify it.
187 For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
188 or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
189 you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
190 code. If you link a program with the library, you must provide
191 complete object files to the recipients so that they can relink them
192 with the library, after making changes to the library and recompiling
193 it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
195 Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (
1) copyright
196 the library, and (
2) offer you this license which gives you legal
197 permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
199 Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain
200 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
201 library. If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we
202 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original
203 version, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on
204 the original authors' reputations.
206 Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
207 patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free
208 software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect
209 transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent this,
210 we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's
211 free use or not licensed at all.
213 Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary
214 GNU General Public License, which was designed for utility programs. This
215 license, the GNU Library General Public License, applies to certain
216 designated libraries. This license is quite different from the ordinary
217 one; be sure to read it in full, and don't assume that anything in it is
218 the same as in the ordinary license.
220 The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is that
221 they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or adding to a
222 program and simply using it. Linking a program with a library, without
223 changing the library, is in some sense simply using the library, and is
224 analogous to running a utility program or application program. However, in
225 a textual and legal sense, the linked executable is a combined work, a
226 derivative of the original library, and the ordinary General Public License
229 Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General
230 Public License for libraries did not effectively promote software
231 sharing, because most developers did not use the libraries. We
232 concluded that weaker conditions might promote sharing better.
234 However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the
235 users of those programs of all benefit from the free status of the
236 libraries themselves. This Library General Public License is intended to
237 permit developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while
238 preserving your freedom as a user of such programs to change the free
239 libraries that are incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to achieve
240 this as regards changes in header files, but we have achieved it as regards
241 changes in the actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this
242 will lead to faster development of free libraries.
244 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
245 modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
246 "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
247 former contains code derived from the library, while the latter only
248 works together with the library.
250 Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary
251 General Public License rather than by this special one.
254 GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE\\
255 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
258 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library which
259 contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized
260 party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Library
261 General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is
264 A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
265 prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
266 (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
268 The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
269 which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
270 Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
271 copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
272 portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
273 straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
274 included without limitation in the term "modification".)
276 "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
277 making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
278 all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
279 interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
280 and installation of the library.
282 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
283 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
284 running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
285 such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
286 on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
287 writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
288 and what the program that uses the Library does.
290 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
291 complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
292 you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
293 appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
294 all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
295 warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
298 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
299 and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
302 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
303 of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
304 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section
1
305 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
307 \begin{indented
}{1cm
}
308 a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
310 b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
311 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
313 c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
314 charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
316 d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
317 table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
318 the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
319 is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
320 in the event an application does not supply such function or
321 table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
322 its purpose remains meaningful.
324 (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
325 a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
326 application. Therefore, Subsection
2d requires that any
327 application-supplied function or table used by this function must
328 be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
329 root function must still compute square roots.)
332 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
333 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
334 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
335 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
336 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
337 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
338 on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
339 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
340 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
343 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
344 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
345 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
346 collective works based on the Library.
348 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
349 with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
350 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
351 the scope of this License.
353 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
354 License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
355 this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
356 that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version
2,
357 instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version
2 of the
358 ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
359 that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
362 Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
363 that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
364 subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
366 This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
367 the Library into a program that is not a library.
369 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
370 derivative of it, under Section
2) in object code or executable form
371 under the terms of Sections
1 and
2 above provided that you accompany
372 it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
373 must be distributed under the terms of Sections
1 and
2 above on a
374 medium customarily used for software interchange.
376 If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
377 from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
378 source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
379 distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
380 compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
382 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
383 Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
384 linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
385 work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
386 therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
388 However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
389 creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
390 contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
391 library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
392 Section
6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
394 When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
395 that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
396 derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
397 Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
398 linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
399 threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
401 If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
402 structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
403 functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
404 file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
405 work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
406 Library will still fall under Section
6.)
408 Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
409 distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section
6.
410 Any executables containing that work also fall under Section
6,
411 whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
413 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or
414 link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
415 work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
416 under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
417 modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
418 engineering for debugging such modifications.
420 You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
421 Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
422 this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
423 during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
424 copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
425 directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
429 \begin{indented
}{1cm
}
430 a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
431 machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
432 changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
433 Sections
1 and
2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
434 with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
435 uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
436 user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
437 executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
438 that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
439 Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
440 to use the modified definitions.)
442 b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
443 least three years, to give the same user the materials
444 specified in Subsection
6a, above, for a charge no more
445 than the cost of performing this distribution.
447 c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
448 from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
449 specified materials from the same place.
451 d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
452 materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
455 For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
456 Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
457 reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
458 the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally
459 distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
460 components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
461 which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
464 It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
465 restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
466 accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
467 use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
470 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
471 Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
472 facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
473 library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
474 the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
475 permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
477 \begin{indented
}{1cm
}
478 a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
479 based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
480 facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
483 b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
484 that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
485 where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
488 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
489 the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
490 attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
491 distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
492 rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
493 or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
494 terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
496 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
497 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
498 distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
499 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
500 modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
501 Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
502 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
503 the Library or works based on it.
505 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
506 Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
507 original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
508 subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
509 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
510 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
513 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
514 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
515 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
516 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
517 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
518 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
519 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
520 may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
521 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
522 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
523 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
524 refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
526 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
527 particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
528 and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
530 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
531 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
532 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
533 integrity of the free software distribution system which is
534 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
535 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
536 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
537 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
538 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
541 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
542 be a consequence of the rest of this License.
544 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
545 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
546 original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
547 an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
548 so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
549 excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
550 written in the body of this License.
552 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
553 versions of the Library General Public License from time to time.
554 Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
555 but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
557 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
558 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
559 "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
560 conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
561 the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
562 license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
563 the Free Software Foundation.
565 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
566 programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
567 write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
568 copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
569 Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
570 decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
571 of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
572 and reuse of software generally.
578 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
579 WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
580 EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
581 OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
582 KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
583 IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR

594 RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A

596 SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
601 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
604 \wxheading{Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
}
606 If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
607 possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
608 everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
609 redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
610 ordinary General Public License).
612 To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
613 safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
614 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
615 "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
619 <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

623 modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public
624 License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
625 version

627 This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
628 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
629 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
630 Library General Public License for more details.
632 You should have received a copy of the GNU Library General Public
633 License along with this library; if not, write to the Free
634 Software Foundation, Inc.,
675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA

639 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
641 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
642 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
643 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
647 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
648 library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
