This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates
|
| 10 |
|
|
the terms and conditions of version 3 of the GNU General Public
|
| 11 |
|
|
License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed below.
|

|
|
0. Additional Definitions.
|
| 14 |
|
|
|
| 15 |
|
|
As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
|
| 16 |
|
|
General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
|
| 17 |
|
|
General Public License.
|
| 18 |
|
|
|
| 19 |
|
|
"The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
|
| 20 |
|
|
other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
|
| 21 |
|
|
|
| 22 |
|
|
An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
|
| 23 |
|
|
by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
|
| 24 |
|
|
Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
|
| 25 |
|
|
of using an interface provided by the Library.
|
| 26 |
|
|
|
| 27 |
|
|
A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
|
| 28 |
|
|
Application with the Library. The particular version of the Library
|
| 29 |
|
|
with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
|
| 30 |
|
|
Version".
|
| 31 |
|
|
|
| 32 |
|
|
The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
|
| 33 |
|
|
Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
|
| 34 |
|
|
for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
|
| 35 |
|
|
based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
|
| 36 |
|
|
|
| 37 |
|
|
The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
|
| 38 |
|
|
object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
|
| 39 |
|
|
and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
|
| 40 |
|
|
Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
|
| 41 |
|
|
|
| 42 |
|
|
1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
|
| 43 |
|
|
|
| 44 |
|
|
You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
|
| 45 |
|
|
without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
|
| 46 |
|
|
|
| 47 |
|
|
2. Conveying Modified Versions.
|
| 48 |
|
|
|
| 49 |
|
|
If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
|
| 50 |
|
|
facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
|
| 51 |
|
|
that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
|
| 52 |
|
|
facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
|
| 53 |
|
|
version:
|
| 54 |
|
|
|
| 55 |
|
|
a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
|
| 56 |
|
|
ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
|
| 57 |
|
|
function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
|
| 58 |
|
|
whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
|
| 59 |
|
|
|
| 60 |
|
|
b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
|
| 61 |
|
|
this License applicable to that copy.
|
| 62 |
|
|
|
| 63 |
|
|
3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
|
| 64 |
|
|
|
| 65 |
|
|
The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
|
| 66 |
|
|
a header file that is part of the Library. You may convey such object
|
| 67 |
|
|
code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
|
| 68 |
|
|
material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
|
| 69 |
|
|
layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
|
| 70 |
|
|
(ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
|
| 71 |
|
|
|
| 72 |
|
|
a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
|
| 73 |
|
|
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
|
| 74 |
|
|
covered by this License.
|
| 75 |
|
|
|
| 76 |
|
|
b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
|
| 77 |
|
|
document.
|
| 78 |
|
|
|
| 79 |
|
|
4. Combined Works.
|
| 80 |
|
|
|
| 81 |
|
|
You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
|
| 82 |
|
|
taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
|
| 83 |
|
|
portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
|
| 84 |
|
|
engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
|
| 85 |
|
|
the following:
|
| 86 |
|
|
|
| 87 |
|
|
a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
|
| 88 |
|
|
the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
|
| 89 |
|
|
covered by this License.
|
| 90 |
|
|
|
| 91 |
|
|
b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
|
| 92 |
|
|
document.
|
| 93 |
|
|
|
| 94 |
|
|
c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
|
| 95 |
|
|
execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
|
| 96 |
|
|
these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
|
| 97 |
|
|
copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
|
| 98 |
|
|
|
| 99 |
|
|
d) Do one of the following:
|
| 100 |
|
|
|
| 101 |
|
|
0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
|
| 102 |
|
|
License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
|
| 103 |
|
|
suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
|
| 104 |
|
|
recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
|
| 105 |
|
|
the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
|
| 106 |
|
|
manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
|
| 107 |
|
|
Corresponding Source.
|
| 108 |
|
|
|
| 109 |
|
|
1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
|
| 110 |
|
|
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
|
| 111 |
|
|
a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
|
| 112 |
|
|
system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
|
| 113 |
|
|
of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
|
| 114 |
|
|
Version.
|
| 115 |
|
|
|
| 116 |
|
|
e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise
|
| 117 |
|
|
be required to provide such information under section 6 of the
|
| 118 |
|
|
GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such information is
|
| 119 |
|
|
necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
|
| 120 |
|
|
Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the
|
| 121 |
|
|
Application with a modified version of the Linked Version. (If
|
| 122 |
|
|
you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany
|
| 123 |
|
|
the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application
|
| 124 |
|
|
Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
|
| 125 |
|
|
Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL
|
| 126 |
|
|
for conveying Corresponding Source.)
|
| 127 |
|
|
|
| 128 |
|
|
5. Combined Libraries.
|
| 129 |
|
|
|
| 130 |
|
|
You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
|
| 131 |
|
|
Library side by side in a single library together with other library
|
| 132 |
|
|
facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
|
| 133 |
|
|
License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your
|
| 134 |
|
|
choice, if you do both of the following:
|
| 135 |
|
|
|
| 136 |
|
|
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
|
| 137 |
|
|
on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
|
| 138 |
|
|
conveyed under the terms of this License.
|
| 139 |
|
|
|
| 140 |
|
|
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it
|
| 141 |
|
|
is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
|
| 142 |
|
|
accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
|
| 143 |
|
|
|
| 144 |
|
|
6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
|
| 145 |
|
|
|
| 146 |
|
|
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
|
| 147 |
|
|
of the GNU Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
|
| 148 |
|
|
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
|
| 149 |
|
|
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
|
| 150 |
|
|
|
| 151 |
|
|
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
|
| 152 |
|
|
Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
|
| 153 |
|
|
of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
|
| 154 |
|
|
applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
|
| 155 |
|
|
conditions either of that published version or of any later version
|
| 156 |
|
|
published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
|
| 157 |
|
|
received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
|
| 158 |
|
|
General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
|
| 159 |
|
|
General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
|
| 160 |
|
|
|
| 161 |
|
|
If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
|
| 162 |
|
|
whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
|
| 163 |
|
|
apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
|
| 164 |
|
|
permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
|
| 165 |
|
|
Library.
