-----Original Message----- not free... I try to avoid closed source libs as much as possible, the main problem I have with buying that stuff is less buying, but you always run into problems on the code side which you cannot fix. Then the company goes down and you are left with a bunch of binaries which you cannot fix or upgrade yourself :-( -----/Original Message-----
True, true... That's surely one of the reasons why there are some disassembler around. And for the rest, usually it is a question of the legal department to include some paragraphs in the contract about source becoming available when the company goes out of business or wants to discontinue its product.
