Hi, I know this list doesn't see much traffic at all, but I figure someone might be listening in. I'm planning to use btparse within a KDE application I'm writing, called Bookcase, located at http://www.periapsis.org/bookcase/ In order to use it within a c++ program, I needed to modify it since it uses the reserved word 'class' several times in error.c. I added the patches for error.c and btparse.h.in to the patch tracker at sourceforge. Also, since it's such a small codebase, and isn't ubiquitous, I was considering just including it within my app, and statically linking to it. As far as I can tell, I can do that legally according to the LGPL, since Bookcase is licensed under the GPL v2. By Item 3 in the LGPL, I believe I'm supposed to 'relicense' btparse under the GPL, correct? Thanks, Robby |
