107

108
- Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
109
- 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
110
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
111
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
112
-
113
- [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts
114
- as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence
115
- the version number 2.1.]
116
-
117
- Preamble
118
-
119
- The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
120
- freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
121
- Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
122
- free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
123
-
124
- This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
125
- specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
126
- Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You
127
- can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
128
- this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
129
- strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
130
-
131
- When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
132
- not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
133
- you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
134
- for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
135
- it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
136
- it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
137
- these things.
138
-
139
- To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
140
- distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
141
- rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
142
- you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
143
-
144
- For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
145
- or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
146
- you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
147
- code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide
148
- complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
149
- with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
150
- it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
151
-
152
- We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
153
- library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
154
- permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
155
-
156
- To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
157
- there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is
158
- modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
159
- that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
160
- author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
161
- introduced by others.
162
-
163
- Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
164
- any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot
165
- effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
166
- restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that
167
- any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
168
- consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
169
-
170
- Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
171
- ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser
172
- General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
173
- is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use
174
- this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
175
- libraries into non-free programs.
176
-
177
- When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
178
- a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
179
- combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
180
- General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
181
- entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
182
- Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
183
- the library.
184
-
185
- We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
186
- does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
187
- Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less
188
- of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages
189
- are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
190
- libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
191
- special circumstances.
192
-
193
- For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
194
- encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
195
- a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be
196
- allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free
197
- library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this
198
- case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
199
- software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
200
-
201
- In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
202
- programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
203
- free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
204
- non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
205
- operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
206
- system.
207
-
208
- Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
209
- users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
210
- linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
211
- that program using a modified version of the Library.
212
-
213
- The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
214
- modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
215
- "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
216
- former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
217
- be combined with the library in order to run.
218
-
219
- GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
220
- TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
221
-
222
- 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
223
- program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
224
- other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
225
- this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
226
- Each licensee is addressed as "you".
227
-
228
- A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
229
- prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
230
- (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
231
-
232
- The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
233
- which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
234
- Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
235
- copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
236
- portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
237
- straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
238
- included without limitation in the term "modification".)
239
-
240
- "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
241
- making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
242
- all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
243
- interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
244
- and installation of the library.
245
-
246
- Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
247
- covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
248
- running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
249
- such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
250
- on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
251
- writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
252
- and what the program that uses the Library does.
253
-
254
- 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
255
- complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
256
- you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
257
- appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
258
- all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
259
- warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
260
- Library.
261
-
262
- You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
263
- and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
264
- fee.
265
-
266
- 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
267
- of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
268
- distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
269
- above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
270
-
271
- a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
272
-
273
- b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
274
- stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
275
-
276
- c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
277
- charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
278
-
279
- d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
280
- table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
281
- the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
282
- is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
283
- in the event an application does not supply such function or
284
- table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
285
- its purpose remains meaningful.
286
-
287
- (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
288
- a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
289
- application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
290
- application-supplied function or table used by this function must
291
- be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
292
- root function must still compute square roots.)
293
-
294
- These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
295
- identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
296
- and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
297
- themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
298
- sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
299
- distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
300
- on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
301
- this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
302
- entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
303
- it.
304
-
305
- Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
306
- your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
307
- exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
308
- collective works based on the Library.
309
-
310
- In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
311
- with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
312
- a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
313
- the scope of this License.
314
-
315
- 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
316
- License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
317
- this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
318
- that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
319
- instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
320
- ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
321
- that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
322
- these notices.
323
-
324
- Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
325
- that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
326
- subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
327
-
328
- This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
329
- the Library into a program that is not a library.
330
-
331
- 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
332
- derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
333
- under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
334
- it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
335
- must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
336
- medium customarily used for software interchange.
337
-
338
- If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
339
- from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
340
- source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
341
- distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
342
- compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
343
-
344
- 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
345
- Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
346
- linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
347
- work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
348
- therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
349
-
350
- However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
351
- creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
352
- contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
353
- library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
354
- Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
355
-
356
- When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
357
- that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
358
- derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
359
- Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
360
- linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
361
- threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
362
-
363
- If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
364
- structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
365
- functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
366
- file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
367
- work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
368
- Library will still fall under Section 6.)
369
-
370
- Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
371
- distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
372
- Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
373
- whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
374
-
375
- 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
376
- link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
377
- work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
378
- under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
379
- modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
380
- engineering for debugging such modifications.
381
-
382
- You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
383
- Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
384
- this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
385
- during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
386
- copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
387
- directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
388
- of these things:
389
-
390
- a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
391
- machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
392
- changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
393
- Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
394
- with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
395
- uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
396
- user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
397
- executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
398
- that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
399
- Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
400
- to use the modified definitions.)
401
-
402
- b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
403
- Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
404
- copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
405
- rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
406
- will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
407
- the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
408
- interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
409
-
410
- c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
411
- least three years, to give the same user the materials
412
- specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
413
- than the cost of performing this distribution.
414
-
415
- d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
416
- from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
417
- specified materials from the same place.
418
-
419
- e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
420
- materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
421
-
422
- For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
423
- Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
424
- reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
425
- the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
426
- normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
427
- components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
428
- which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
429
- the executable.
430
-
431
- It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
432
- restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
433
- accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
434
- use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
435
- distribute.
436
-
437
- 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
438
- Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
439
- facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
440
- library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
441
- the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
442
- permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
443
-
444
- a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
445
- based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
446
- facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
447
- Sections above.
448
-
449
- b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
450
- that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
451
- where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
452
-
453
- 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
454
- the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
455
- attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
456
- distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
457
- rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
458
- or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
459
- terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
460
-
461
- 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
462
- signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
463
- distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
464
- prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
465
- modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
466
- Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
467
- all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
468
- the Library or works based on it.
469
-
470
- 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
471
- Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
472
- original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
473
- subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
474
- restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
475
- You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
476
- this License.
477
-
478
- 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
479
- infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
480
- conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
481
- otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
482
- excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
483
- distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
484
- License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
485
- may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
486
- license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
487
- all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
488
- the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
489
- refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
490
-
491
- If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
492
- particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
493
- and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
494
-
495
- It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
496
- patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
497
- such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
498
- integrity of the free software distribution system which is
499
- implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
500
- generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
501
- through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
502
- system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
503
- to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
504
- impose that choice.
505
-
506
- This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
507
- be a consequence of the rest of this License.
508
-
509
- 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
510
- certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
511
- original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
512
- an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
513
- so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
514
- excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
515
- written in the body of this License.
516
-
517
- 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
518
- versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
519
- Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
520
- but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
521
-
522
- Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
523
- specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
524
- "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
525
- conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
526
- the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
527
- license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
528
- the Free Software Foundation.
529
-
530
- 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
531
- programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
532
- write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
533
- copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
534
- Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
535
- decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
536
- of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
537
- and reuse of software generally.
538
-
539
- NO WARRANTY
540
-
541
- 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
542
- WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
543
- EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
544
- OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
545
- KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
546
- IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
547
- PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
548
- LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
549
- THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
550
-
551
- 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
552
- WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
553
- AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
554
- FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
555
- CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
556
- LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
557
- RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
558

-
564
- How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
565
-
566
- If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
567
- possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
568
- everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
569
- redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
570
- ordinary General Public License).
571
-
572
- To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
573
- safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
574
- convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
575
- "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
576
-
577
- <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
578
- Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
579
-
580
- This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
581
- modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public
582
- License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
583
- version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
584
-
585
- This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
586
- but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
587
- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
588
- Lesser General Public License for more details.
589
-
590
- You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public
591
- License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software
592
- Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
593
-
594
- Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
595
-
596
- You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
597
- school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
598
- necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

+ GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
106
+ Version 2.1, February 1999
107
+
108
+ Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
109
+ 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
110
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
111
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
112
+
113
+ [This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts
114
+ as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence
115
+ the version number 2.1.]
116
+
117
+ Preamble
118
+
119
+ The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
120
+ freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
121
+ Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
122
+ free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
123
+
124
+ This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
125
+ specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
126
+ Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You
127
+ can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
128
+ this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
129
+ strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
130
+
131
+ When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
132
+ not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
133
+ you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
134
+ for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
135
+ it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
136
+ it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
137
+ these things.
138
+
139
+ To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
140
+ distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
141
+ rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
142
+ you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
143
+
144
+ For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
145
+ or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
146
+ you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
147
+ code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide
148
+ complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
149
+ with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
150
+ it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
151
+
152
+ We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
153
+ library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
154
+ permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
155
+
156
+ To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
157
+ there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is
158
+ modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
159
+ that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
160
+ author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
161
+ introduced by others.
162
+
163
+ Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
164
+ any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot
165
+ effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
166
+ restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that
167
+ any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
168
+ consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
169
+
170
+ Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
171
+ ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser
172
+ General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
173
+ is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use
174
+ this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
175
+ libraries into non-free programs.
176
+
177
+ When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
178
+ a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
179
+ combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
180
+ General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
181
+ entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
182
+ Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
183
+ the library.
184
+
185
+ We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
186
+ does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
187
+ Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less
188
+ of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages
189
+ are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
190
+ libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
191
+ special circumstances.
192
+
193
+ For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
194
+ encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
195
+ a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be
196
+ allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free
197
+ library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this
198
+ case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
199
+ software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
200
+
201
+ In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
202
+ programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
203
+ free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
204
+ non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
205
+ operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
206
+ system.
207
+
208
+ Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
209
+ users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
210
+ linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
211
+ that program using a modified version of the Library.
212
+
213
+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
214
+ modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
215
+ "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
216
+ former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
217
+ be combined with the library in order to run.
218
+
219
+ GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
220
+ TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
221
+
222
+ 0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
223
+ program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
224
+ other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
225
+ this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
226
+ Each licensee is addressed as "you".
227
+
228
+ A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
229
+ prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
230
+ (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
231
+
232
+ The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
233
+ which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
234
+ Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
235
+ copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
236
+ portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
237
+ straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
238
+ included without limitation in the term "modification".)
239
+
240
+ "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
241
+ making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
242
+ all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
243
+ interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
244
+ and installation of the library.
245
+
246
+ Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
247
+ covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
248
+ running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
249
+ such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
250
+ on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
251
+ writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
252
+ and what the program that uses the Library does.
253
+
254
+ 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
255
+ complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
256
+ you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
257
+ appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
258
+ all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
259
+ warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
260
+ Library.
261
+
262
+ You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
263
+ and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
264
+ fee.
265
+
266
+ 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
267
+ of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
268
+ distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
269
+ above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
270
+
271
+ a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
272
+
273
+ b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
274
+ stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
275
+
276
+ c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
277
+ charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
278
+
279
+ d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
280
+ table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
281
+ the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
282
+ is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
283
+ in the event an application does not supply such function or
284
+ table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
285
+ its purpose remains meaningful.
286
+
287
+ (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
288
+ a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
289
+ application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
290
+ application-supplied function or table used by this function must
291
+ be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
292
+ root function must still compute square roots.)
293
+
294
+ These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
295
+ identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
296
+ and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
297
+ themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
298
+ sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
299
+ distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
300
+ on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
301
+ this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
302
+ entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
303
+ it.
304
+
305
+ Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
306
+ your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
307
+ exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
308
+ collective works based on the Library.
309
+
310
+ In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
311
+ with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
312
+ a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
313
+ the scope of this License.
314
+
315
+ 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
316
+ License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
317
+ this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
318
+ that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
319
+ instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
320
+ ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
321
+ that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
322
+ these notices.
323
+
324
+ Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
325
+ that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
326
+ subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
327
+
328
+ This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
329
+ the Library into a program that is not a library.
330
+
331
+ 4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
332
+ derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
333
+ under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
334
+ it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
335
+ must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
336
+ medium customarily used for software interchange.
337
+
338
+ If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
339
+ from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
340
+ source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
341
+ distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
342
+ compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
343
+
344
+ 5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
345
+ Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
346
+ linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
347
+ work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
348
+ therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
349
+
350
+ However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
351
+ creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
352
+ contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
353
+ library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
354
+ Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
355
+
356
+ When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
357
+ that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
358
+ derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
359
+ Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
360
+ linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
361
+ threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
362
+
363
+ If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
364
+ structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
365
+ functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
366
+ file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
367
+ work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
368
+ Library will still fall under Section 6.)
369
+
370
+ Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
371
+ distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
372
+ Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
373
+ whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
374
+
375
+ 6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
376
+ link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
377
+ work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
378
+ under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
379
+ modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
380
+ engineering for debugging such modifications.
381
+
382
+ You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
383
+ Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
384
+ this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
385
+ during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
386
+ copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
387
+ directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
388
+ of these things:
389
+
390
+ a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
391
+ machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
392
+ changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
393
+ Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
394
+ with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
395
+ uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
396
+ user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
397
+ executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
398
+ that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
399
+ Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
400
+ to use the modified definitions.)
401
+
402
+ b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
403
+ Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
404
+ copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
405
+ rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
406
+ will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
407
+ the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
408
+ interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
409
+
410
+ c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
411
+ least three years, to give the same user the materials
412
+ specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
413
+ than the cost of performing this distribution.
414
+
415
+ d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
416
+ from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
417
+ specified materials from the same place.
418
+
419
+ e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
420
+ materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
421
+
422
+ For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
423
+ Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
424
+ reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
425
+ the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
426
+ normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
427
+ components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
428
+ which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
429
+ the executable.
430
+
431
+ It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
432
+ restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
433
+ accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
434
+ use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
435
+ distribute.
436
+
437
+ 7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
438
+ Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
439
+ facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
440
+ library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
441
+ the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
442
+ permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
443
+
444
+ a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
445
+ based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
446
+ facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
447
+ Sections above.
448
+
449
+ b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
450
+ that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
451
+ where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
452
+
453
+ 8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
454
+ the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
455
+ attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
456
+ distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
457
+ rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
458
+ or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
459
+ terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
460
+
461
+ 9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
462
+ signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
463
+ distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
464
+ prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
465
+ modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
466
+ Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
467
+ all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
468
+ the Library or works based on it.
469
+
470
+ 10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
471
+ Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
472
+ original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
473
+ subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
474
+ restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
475
+ You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
476
+ this License.
477
+
478
+ 11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
479
+ infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
480
+ conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
481
+ otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
482
+ excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
483
+ distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
484
+ License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
485
+ may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
486
+ license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
487
+ all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
488
+ the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
489
+ refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
490
+
491
+ If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
492
+ particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
493
+ and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
494
+
495
+ It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
496
+ patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
497
+ such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
498
+ integrity of the free software distribution system which is
499
+ implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
500
+ generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
501
+ through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
502
+ system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
503
+ to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
504
+ impose that choice.
505
+
506
+ This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
507
+ be a consequence of the rest of this License.
508
+
509
+ 12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
510
+ certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
511
+ original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
512
+ an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
513
+ so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
514
+ excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
515
+ written in the body of this License.
516
+
517
+ 13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
518
+ versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
519
+ Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
520
+ but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
521
+
522
+ Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
523
+ specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
524
+ "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
525
+ conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
526
+ the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
527
+ license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
528
+ the Free Software Foundation.
529
+
530
+ 14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
531
+ programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
532
+ write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
533
+ copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
534
+ Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
535
+ decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
536
+ of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
537
+ and reuse of software generally.
538
+
539
+ NO WARRANTY
540
+
541
+ 15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
542
+ WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
543
+ EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
544
+ OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
545
+ KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
546
+ IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
547
+ PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
548
+ LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
549
+ THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
550
+
551
+ 16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
552
+ WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
553
+ AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
554
+ FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
555
+ CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
556
+ LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
557
+ RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
558
+ FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
559
+ SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
560
+ DAMAGES.
561
+
562
+ END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
563
+
564
+ How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
565
+
566
+ If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
567
+ possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
568
+ everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
569
+ redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
570
+ ordinary General Public License).
571
+
572
+ To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
573
+ safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
574
+ convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
575
+ "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
576
+
577
+ <one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
578
+ Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
579
+
580
+ This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
581
+ modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public
582
+ License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
583
+ version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
584
+
585
+ This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
586
+ but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
587
+ MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
588
+ Lesser General Public License for more details.
589
+
590
+ You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public
591
+ License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software
592
+ Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
593
+
594
+ Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
595
+
596
+ You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
597
+ school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
598
+ necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
