I use the compiler source in my Compiler Construction Seminar (http://www.astoriseminar.com). So yes, you are free to study the code, learn from it, apply the techniques in your own projects, and contribute to other projects under a different license.
Great. Thanks for clarifying this. That puts my mind at ease. :)
All I ask is that you do not copy the actual source code code without a license from Digital Mars or unless the copy is under the GPL.
Okay. I don't wish to copy any code anyway. Just want to study the front-end to understand the language better.
In particular, I am not requiring anyone to do a clean room implementation. My often stated ideas about 'taint' are simply an easy way to protect myself (and Digital Mars) against frivolous lawsuits, I have no intention of applying them in reverse.
That sounds reasonable. Thanks again. ;) -- Aziz -- Dil D compiler: http://code.google.com/p/dil/
