This is not a comprehensive explanation, but in a nutshell: Were you to be linking against a library that is distributed under the terms of the GNU GPL, you would be required to make your source code available. Under the terms of the GNU LGPL, however, you are not required to do such a thing, so long as you offer dynamically-linked builds of your software (well, the linkage to the LGPL-licensed components must be dynamically linked.) Were you, however, to modify the LGPL-licensed library itself, and then distribute that, you would be required to make those changes available. 2008/4/2 Priya Suryanarayanan <priya.suryanarayanan@xxxxxxxxxx>: > I have been developing GUIs for Windows using the GTK+ libraries, and > distributing the GUIs (batch file, executables and GTK+ libraries) free. -- http://www.socsurveys.org/ http://blogger.socsurveys.org/ http://del.icio.us/hdon http://hdon.soup.io/ _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
