- Preamble
- ========
- The licensing of the wxWidgets library is intended to protect the wxWidgets
- library, its developers, and its users, so that the considerable investment
- it represents is not abused.
- Under the terms of the wxWindows licence, you as a user are not
- obliged to distribute wxWidgets source code with your products, if you
- distribute these products in binary form. However, you are prevented from
- restricting use of the library in source code form, or denying others the
- rights to use or distribute wxWidgets library source code in the way
- intended.
- The wxWindows licence establishes the copyright for the code and related
- material, and it gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or
- modify the library. It also asserts that no warranty is given by the authors
- for this or derived code.
- The core distribution of the wxWidgets library contains files
- under two different licences:
- - Most files are distributed under the GNU Library General Public
- Licence, version 2, with the special exception that you may create and
- distribute object code versions built from the source code or modified
- versions of it (even if these modified versions include code under a
- different licence), and distribute such binaries under your own
- terms.
- - Most core wxWidgets manuals are made available under the "wxWidgets
- Free Documentation Licence", which allows you to distribute modified
- versions of the manuals, such as versions documenting any modifications
- made by you in your version of the library. However, you may not restrict
- any third party from reincorporating your changes into the original
- manuals.
- Other relevant files:
- - licence.txt: a statement that the wxWidgets library is
- covered by the GNU Library General Public Licence, with an
- exception notice for binary distribution.
- - licendoc.txt: the wxWidgets Documentation Licence.
- - lgpl.txt: the text of the GNU Library General Public Licence.
- - gpl.txt: the text of the GNU General Public Licence, which is
- referenced by the LGPL.
