Re: Embedding Gecko to create a HTML+JScript based Windows app

[Alex Leduc]

IANAL, but everything is licensed under the MPL. So long as you don't 
make a standars install of a cripled GRE. i.e. The registry says the GRE 
is installed but other applications based on it would crash because some 
files are missing.

But as long as you keep the bunch of libraries you need in your install 
dir, that's not the GRE per see (spl) ... just a bunch of Mozilla 
components.

Hi,

I am currently working with the latest build of GRE from the mozilla
ftp site. The aim is to build a windows app using HTML+Jscript for the
UI portion and C++ code for the actual processing (it's an image
processing app). Gecko will be used as the rendering engine to render
the HTML+JScript based UI.
Is it possible to create a build/distribution of the GRE
libraries/dlls which i can use only with my app, preferably installed
inside my app's install dir? Does the GRE license allow that? I read
the GRE documentation online and the licensing terms say that if i
distribute my app and GRE then GRE should be installed completely so
that other apps which may use it can function fine. What i am thinking
is a version of GRE which will not include the networking, ssl,
cookies etc and other stuff which my app will not be needing so that
the distribution can be of lesser size to download.
Any suggestions?

Thanks
