Zeollib is released under LGPL. But does that mean I can use the code
and release my software under an other licencing terms, like a
proprietary licence?
Yes, a LGPL library can be linked against proprietary code. I am sure
about that in the case where the library is a external file. On the same
executable I am not sure, but is probably the same. Acctually I think
that most of the LCL is on modified LGPL to allow proprietary and
non-proprietary code on the same executable.
The only restriction is that if you modify ZeosLib functions or code you
must send the modifications back to the community. Proprietary apps can
call LGPL librarie´s functions. This would not be true in the case of a
GPL library, like the free version of QT. In this case the calling app
must be GPL.
I could ask on their forum web site but I have no account and do not
wish to, for now.
You can post on the forum without a account.
