1 | Qwt License | ||
2 | Version 1.0, January 1, 2003 | ||
3 | |||
4 | The Qwt library and included programs are provided under the terms | ||
5 | of the GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE (LGPL) with the following | ||
6 | exceptions: | ||
7 | |||
8 | 1. Widgets that are subclassed from Qwt widgets do not | ||
9 | constitute a derivative work. | ||
10 | |||
11 | 2. Static linking of applications and widgets to the | ||
12 | Qwt library does not constitute a derivative work | ||
13 | and does not require the author to provide source | ||
14 | code for the application or widget, use the shared | ||
15 | Qwt libraries, or link their applications or | ||
16 | widgets against a user-supplied version of Qwt. | ||
17 | |||
18 | If you link the application or widget to a modified | ||
19 | version of Qwt, then the changes to Qwt must be | ||
20 | provided under the terms of the LGPL in sections | ||
21 | 1, 2, and 4. | ||
22 | |||
23 | 3. You do not have to provide a copy of the Qwt license | ||
24 | with programs that are linked to the Qwt library, nor | ||
25 | do you have to identify the Qwt license in your | ||
26 | program or documentation as required by section 6 | ||
27 | of the LGPL. | ||
28 | |||
29 | |||
30 | However, programs must still identify their use of Qwt. | ||
31 | The following example statement can be included in user | ||
32 | documentation to satisfy this requirement: | ||
33 | |||
34 | [program/widget] is based in part on the work of | ||
35 | the Qwt project (http://qwt.sf.net). | ||

40 | GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE | ||
41 | Version 2.1, February 1999 | ||
42 | |||
43 | Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | ||
44 | 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA | ||
45 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies | ||
46 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. | ||
47 | |||
48 | [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts | ||
49 | as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence | ||
50 | the version number 2.1.] | ||
51 | |||
52 | Preamble | ||
53 | |||
54 | The licenses for most software are designed to take away your | ||
55 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public | ||
56 | Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change | ||
57 | free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. | ||
58 | |||
59 | This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some | ||
60 | specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the | ||
61 | Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You | ||
62 | can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether | ||
63 | this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better | ||
64 | strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below. | ||
65 | |||
66 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, | ||
67 | not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that | ||
68 | you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge | ||
69 | for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get | ||
70 | it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of | ||
71 | it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do | ||
72 | these things. | ||
73 | |||
74 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid | ||
75 | distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these | ||
76 | rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for | ||
77 | you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it. | ||
78 | |||
79 | For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis | ||
80 | or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave | ||
81 | you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source | ||
82 | code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide | ||
83 | complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them | ||
84 | with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling | ||
85 | it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. | ||
86 | |||
87 | We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the | ||
88 | library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal | ||
89 | permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. | ||
90 | |||
91 | To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that | ||
92 | there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is | ||
93 | modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know | ||
94 | that what they have is not the original version, so that the original | ||
95 | author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be | ||
96 | introduced by others. | ||
97 | |||
98 | Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of | ||
99 | any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot | ||
100 | effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a | ||
101 | restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that | ||
102 | any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be | ||
103 | consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. | ||
104 | |||
105 | Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the | ||
106 | ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser | ||
107 | General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and | ||
108 | is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use | ||
109 | this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those | ||
110 | libraries into non-free programs. | ||
111 | |||
112 | When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using | ||
113 | a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a | ||
114 | combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary | ||
115 | General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the | ||
116 | entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General | ||
117 | Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with | ||
118 | the library. | ||
119 | |||
120 | We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it | ||
121 | does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General | ||
122 | Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less | ||
123 | of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages | ||
124 | are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many | ||
125 | libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain | ||
126 | special circumstances. | ||
127 | |||
128 | For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to | ||
129 | encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes | ||
130 | a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be | ||
131 | allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free | ||
132 | library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this | ||
133 | case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free | ||
134 | software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. | ||
135 | |||
136 | In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free | ||
137 | programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of | ||
138 | free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in | ||
139 | non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU | ||
140 | operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating | ||
141 | system. | ||
142 | |||
143 | Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the | ||
144 | users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is | ||
145 | linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run | ||
146 | that program using a modified version of the Library. | ||
147 | |||
148 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and | ||
149 | modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a | ||
150 | "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The | ||
151 | former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must | ||
152 | be combined with the library in order to run. | ||
153 | |||
154 | GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE | ||
155 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION | ||
156 | |||
157 | 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other | ||
158 | program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or | ||
159 | other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of | ||
160 | this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). | ||
161 | Each licensee is addressed as "you". | ||
162 | |||
163 | A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data | ||
164 | prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs | ||
165 | (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables. | ||
166 | |||
167 | The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work | ||
168 | which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the | ||
169 | Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under | ||
170 | copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a | ||
171 | portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated | ||
172 | straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is | ||
173 | included without limitation in the term "modification".) | ||
174 | |||
175 | "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for | ||
176 | making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means | ||
177 | all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated | ||
178 | interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation | ||
179 | and installation of the library. | ||
180 | |||
181 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not | ||
182 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of | ||
183 | running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from | ||
184 | such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based | ||
185 | on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for | ||
186 | writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does | ||
187 | and what the program that uses the Library does. | ||
188 | |||
189 | 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's | ||
190 | complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that | ||
191 | you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an | ||
192 | appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact | ||
193 | all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any | ||
194 | warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the | ||
195 | Library. | ||
196 | |||
197 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, | ||
198 | and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a | ||
199 | fee. | ||
200 | |||
201 | 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion | ||
202 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and | ||
203 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 | ||
204 | above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: | ||
205 | |||
206 | a) The modified work must itself be a software library. | ||
207 | |||
208 | b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices | ||
209 | stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. | ||
210 | |||
211 | c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no | ||
212 | charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. | ||
213 | |||
214 | d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a | ||
215 | table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses | ||
216 | the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility | ||
217 | is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, | ||
218 | in the event an application does not supply such function or | ||
219 | table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of | ||
220 | its purpose remains meaningful. | ||
221 | |||
222 | (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has | ||
223 | a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the | ||
224 | application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any | ||
225 | application-supplied function or table used by this function must | ||
226 | be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square | ||
227 | root function must still compute square roots.) | ||
228 | |||
229 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If | ||
230 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, | ||
231 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in | ||
232 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those | ||
233 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you | ||
234 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based | ||
235 | on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of | ||
236 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the | ||
237 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote | ||
238 | it. | ||
239 | |||
240 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest | ||
241 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to | ||
242 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or | ||
243 | collective works based on the Library. | ||
244 | |||
245 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library | ||
246 | with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of | ||
247 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under | ||
248 | the scope of this License. | ||
249 | |||
250 | 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public | ||
251 | License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do | ||
252 | this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so | ||
253 | that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, | ||
254 | instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the | ||
255 | ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify | ||
256 | that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in | ||
257 | these notices. | ||
258 | |||
259 | Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for | ||
260 | that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all | ||
261 | subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. | ||
262 | |||
263 | This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of | ||
264 | the Library into a program that is not a library. | ||
265 | |||
266 | 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or | ||
267 | derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form | ||
268 | under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany | ||
269 | it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which | ||
270 | must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a | ||
271 | medium customarily used for software interchange. | ||
272 | |||
273 | If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy | ||
274 | from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the | ||
275 | source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to | ||
276 | distribute the source code, even though third parties are not | ||
277 | compelled to copy the source along with the object code. | ||
278 | |||
279 | 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the | ||
280 | Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or | ||
281 | linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a | ||
282 | work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and | ||
283 | therefore falls outside the scope of this License. | ||
284 | |||
285 | However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library | ||
286 | creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it | ||
287 | contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the | ||
288 | library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. | ||
289 | Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables. | ||
290 | |||
291 | When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file | ||
292 | that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a | ||
293 | derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. | ||
294 | Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be | ||
295 | linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The | ||
296 | threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law. | ||
297 | |||
298 | If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data | ||
299 | structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline | ||
300 | functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object | ||
301 | file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative | ||
302 | work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the | ||
303 | Library will still fall under Section 6.) | ||
304 | |||
305 | Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may | ||
306 | distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. | ||
307 | Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, | ||
308 | whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself. | ||
309 | |||
310 | 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or | ||
311 | link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a | ||
312 | work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work | ||
313 | under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit | ||
314 | modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse | ||
315 | engineering for debugging such modifications. | ||
316 | |||
317 | You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the | ||
318 | Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by | ||
319 | this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work | ||
320 | during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the | ||
321 | copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference | ||
322 | directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one | ||
323 | of these things: | ||
324 | |||
325 | a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding | ||
326 | machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever | ||
327 | changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under | ||
328 | Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked | ||
329 | with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that | ||
330 | uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the | ||
331 | user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified | ||
332 | executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood | ||
333 | that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the | ||
334 | Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application | ||
335 | to use the modified definitions.) | ||
336 | |||
337 | b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the | ||
338 | Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a | ||
339 | copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, | ||
340 | rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) | ||
341 | will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if | ||
342 | the user installs one, as long as the modified version is | ||
343 | interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with. | ||
344 | |||
345 | c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at | ||
346 | least three years, to give the same user the materials | ||
347 | specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more | ||
348 | than the cost of performing this distribution. | ||
349 | |||
350 | d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy | ||
351 | from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above | ||
352 | specified materials from the same place. | ||
353 | |||
354 | e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these | ||
355 | materials or that you have already sent this user a copy. | ||
356 | |||
357 | For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the | ||
358 | Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for | ||
359 | reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, | ||
360 | the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is | ||
361 | normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major | ||
362 | components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on | ||
363 | which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies | ||
364 | the executable. | ||
365 | |||
366 | It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license | ||
367 | restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally | ||
368 | accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot | ||
369 | use both them and the Library together in an executable that you | ||
370 | distribute. | ||
371 | |||
372 | 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the | ||
373 | Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library | ||
374 | facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined | ||
375 | library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on | ||
376 | the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise | ||
377 | permitted, and provided that you do these two things: | ||
378 | |||
379 | a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work | ||
380 | based on the Library, uncombined with any other library | ||
381 | facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the | ||
382 | Sections above. | ||
383 | |||
384 | b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact | ||
385 | that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining | ||
386 | where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work. | ||
387 | |||
388 | 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute | ||
389 | the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any | ||
390 | attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or | ||
391 | distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your | ||
392 | rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, | ||
393 | or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses | ||
394 | terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. | ||
395 | |||
396 | 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not | ||
397 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or | ||
398 | distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are | ||
399 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by | ||
400 | modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the | ||
401 | Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and | ||
402 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying | ||
403 | the Library or works based on it. | ||
404 | |||
405 | 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the | ||
406 | Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the | ||
407 | original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library | ||
408 | subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further | ||
409 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. | ||
410 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with | ||
411 | this License. | ||
412 | |||
413 | 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent | ||
414 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), | ||
415 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or | ||
416 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not | ||
417 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot | ||
418 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this | ||
419 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you | ||
420 | may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent | ||
421 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by | ||
422 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then | ||
423 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to | ||
424 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. | ||
425 | |||
426 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any | ||
427 | particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, | ||
428 | and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. | ||
429 | |||
430 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any | ||
431 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any | ||
432 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the | ||
433 | integrity of the free software distribution system which is | ||
434 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made | ||
435 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed | ||
436 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that | ||
437 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing | ||
438 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot | ||
439 | impose that choice. | ||
440 | |||
441 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to | ||
442 | be a consequence of the rest of this License. | ||
443 | |||
444 | 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in | ||
445 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the | ||
446 | original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add | ||
447 | an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, | ||
448 | so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus | ||
449 | excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if | ||
450 | written in the body of this License. | ||
451 | |||
452 | 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new | ||
453 | versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. | ||
454 | Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, | ||
455 | but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. | ||
456 | |||
457 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library | ||
458 | specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and | ||
459 | "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and | ||
460 | conditions either of that version or of any later version published by | ||
461 | the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a | ||
462 | license version number, you may choose any version ever published by | ||
463 | the Free Software Foundation. | ||
464 | |||
465 | 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free | ||
466 | programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, | ||
467 | write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is | ||
468 | copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free | ||
469 | Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our | ||
470 | decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status | ||
471 | of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing | ||
472 | and reuse of software generally. | ||
473 | |||
474 | NO WARRANTY | ||
475 | |||
476 | 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO | ||
477 | WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. | ||
478 | EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR | ||
479 | OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY | ||
480 | KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE | ||
481 | IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR | ||
482 | PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE | ||
483 | LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME | ||
484 | THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. | ||
485 | |||
486 | 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN | ||
487 | WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY | ||
488 | AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU | ||
489 | FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR | ||
490 | CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE | ||
491 | LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING | ||
492 | RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A | ||
493 | FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF | ||
494 | SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH | ||
495 | DAMAGES. | ||
496 | |||
497 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS | ||
498 | |||
499 | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries | ||
500 | |||
501 | If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest | ||
502 | possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that | ||
503 | everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting | ||
504 | redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the | ||
505 | ordinary General Public License). | ||
506 | |||
507 | To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is | ||
508 | safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively | ||
509 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the | ||
510 | "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. | ||
511 | |||
512 | <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.> | ||
513 | Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> | ||
514 | |||
515 | This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or | ||
516 | modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public | ||
517 | License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either | ||
518 | version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. | ||
519 | |||
520 | This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, | ||
521 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of | ||
522 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU | ||
523 | Lesser General Public License for more details. | ||
524 | |||
525 | You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public | ||
526 | License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software | ||
527 | Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA | ||
528 | |||
529 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. | ||
530 | |||
531 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your | ||
532 | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if | ||
533 | necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: | ||
534 | |||
535 | Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the | ||
536 | library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker. | ||
