Hi,
I see that Axis2C has following dependencies
libxml2.dll [http://www.xmlsoft.org - download the version >=
libxml2-2.6.27.win32
] (optional - required only if you are not using Guththila parser)iconv.dll [
http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/ - download the
version >= iconv-1.9.1.win32]zlib1.dll [
http://www.gzip.org/zlib/ - download the version >=
zlib-1.2.3.win32]libxslt.dll [http://www.xmlsoft.org - download the
version >=
libxslt-1.1.24.win32
]http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/docs/installationguide.html#win_binary
These dependencies are not comming directly with Axis2C binaries but only links
to download are provided in the documentation.
iconv is from
www.gnu.org.
So my questions is how are these dependencies licensed and how compatible is
Apache2 license of Axis with these dependencies licenses? Why these are not
comming bundled in Axis2C binaries and only links to download are provided?
First of all I'm not a licensing expert :), Please correct me If I'm wrong. I
think licenses of softwares you mentioned above is not compatible with Apache
Axis2/C licensing (Apache
2.0), Therefore I think we could not bundled them with Axis2/C. However I think
it is upto user to download them and use. I also having questions regarding
licensing , I'm glad you ask this question.
thanks,
Dinesh
