Re[2]: bindist for Intel MacOS X 10.4 (Tiger) with static libs

It's also possible to just distribute, for example, the .o file(s) and a way to link them with a GMP to get the final result; this doesn't even reveal your source-code any more than your program being dynamically linked, at least if you do it right -- right? so, any commercial (closed-source) software written using GHC should be also provided in form of object files which can be linked with GMP to produce working executable -- Best regards, Bulatmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

Isn't this the same on all platforms? If what you are saying is correct, then isn't it required for any program compiled with any readline-enabled GHC to have a GPL-compatible license? I don't think that's right, but IANAL. -Yitz ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
