Bug ID: 55271
Summary: Zip64ExtendedInformationExtraField class Javadoc
references PKWARE documentation when it probably
shouldn't
Product: Ant
Version: 1.9.2
Hardware: PC
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Core
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
While updating Ant support in Eclipse to version 1.9.2, the legal team noticed
the class Javadoc comment in Zip64ExtendedInformationExtraField copies some of
the specification doc from the PKWARE into the class Javadoc. This appears to
be in violation of section 1.4.2 of their license, unless of course Ant has
permission to do so.
The relevant portion of their license:
"1.4.2 Use of the content of this document within other publications is
permitted only through reference to this document. Any reproduction
or distribution of this document in whole or in part without prior
written permission from PKWARE is strictly prohibited."
The recommended solution would be to remove the offending comments from the
class Javadoc, leave the link make mention of section 4.5.3.
