| 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: |

| 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. |
