ecl_license Documentation

ecl_license

Maintains the ecl licenses and also provides an install target for deploying licenses with the ecl libraries.

Embedded Control Library

    This just keeps a copy of the license used for the ecl. It also
    provides an install target so that ecl libraries may always be
    installed on the system with the licenses. Embedded libraries
    also include and install their corresponding licenses in their
    respective packages.

    Copies of the license are provided below for reference.

            @code
                               GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
                                                       Version 3, 29 June 2007

             Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
             Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
             of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.


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

              0. Additional Definitions.

              As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
            General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
            General Public License.

              "The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
            other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.

              An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
            by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
            Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
            of using an interface provided by the Library.

              A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
            Application with the Library.  The particular version of the Library
            with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
            Version".

              The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
            Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
            for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
            based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.

              The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
            object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
            and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
            Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.

              1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.

              You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
            without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.

              2. Conveying Modified Versions.

              If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
            facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
            that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
            facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
            version:

               a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
               ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
               function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
               whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or

               b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
               this License applicable to that copy.

              3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.

              The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
            a header file that is part of the Library.  You may convey such object
            code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
            material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
            layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
            (ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:

               a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
               Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
               covered by this License.

               b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
               document.

              4. Combined Works.

              You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
            taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
            portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
            engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
            the following:

               a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
               the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
               covered by this License.

               b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
               document.

               c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
               execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
               these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
               copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.

               d) Do one of the following:

                       0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
                       License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
                       suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
                       recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
                       the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
                       manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
                       Corresponding Source.

                       1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
                       Library.  A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
                       a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
                       system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
                       of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
                       Version.

               e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise
               be required to provide such information under section 6 of the
               GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such information is
               necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
               Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the
               Application with a modified version of the Linked Version. (If
               you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany
               the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application
               Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
               Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL
               for conveying Corresponding Source.)

              5. Combined Libraries.

              You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
            Library side by side in a single library together with other library
            facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
            License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your
            choice, if you do both of the following:

               a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
               on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
               conveyed under the terms of this License.

               b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it
               is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
               accompanying uncombined form of the same work.

              6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.

              The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
            of the GNU Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
            versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
            differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

              Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
            Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
            of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
            applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
            conditions either of that published version or of any later version
            published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
            received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
            General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
            General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

              If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
            whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
            apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
            permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
            Library.
