Conveying Modified Versions.
If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a facility refers to a function
or data to be supplied by an Application that uses the facility (other than as an argument
passed when the facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified version:
a.
under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event
an Application does not supply the function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
b.
under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of this License applicable to
that copy.
4.
Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from a header file that is
part of the Library. You may convey such object code under terms of your choice,
provided that, if the incorporated material is not limited to numerical parameters, data
structure layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates (ten or
fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
a.
Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the Library is used in it and
that the Library and its use are covered by this License.
b.
Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license document.
5. Combined Works.
You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that, taken together,
effectively do not restrict modification of the portions of the Library contained in the
Combined Work and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do
each of the following:
a.
Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that the Library is used in it
and that the Library and its use are covered by this License.
b.
Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license document.
c.
For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during execution, include the
copyright notice for the Library among these notices, as well as a reference directing the
user to the copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
d.
Do one of the following:
0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, and the
Corresponding Application Code in a form suitable for, and under terms that permit, the
user to recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of the Linked Version
to produce a modified Combined Work, in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU
GPL for conveying Corresponding Source.
1)
Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable
mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time a copy of the Library already present on the
user's computer system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version of the
Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked Version.
e.
Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise be required to provide
such information under section 6 of the GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such
information is necessary to install and execute a modified version of the Combined Work
produced by recombining or relinking the Application with a modified version of the Linked
Version. (If you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany the Minimal
Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application Code. If you use option 4d1, you
must provide the Installation Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU
GPL for conveying Corresponding Source.)
