The CGAL software consists of several parts, each of which is licensed under
|
|
an open source license. It is also possible to obtain commercial licenses
|
|
from GeometryFactory (www.geometryfactory.com) for all or parts of CGAL.
|
|
|
|
The source code of the CGAL library can be found in the directories
|
|
"src/CGAL", "src/CGALQt" and "include/CGAL" (with the exception of
|
|
"include/CGAL/CORE", "include/CGAL/OpenNL" and "include/CGAL/PDB").
|
|
It is specified in each file of the CGAL library which license applies to
|
|
it. This is either the GNU Lesser General Public License (as published by
|
|
the Free Software Foundation; version 2.1 of the License) or the Q Public
|
|
License (version 1.0), *depending on each file*. The texts of both licenses
|
|
can be found in the files LICENSE.LGPL and LICENSE.QPL.
|
|
|
|
Distributed along with CGAL (for the users' convenience), but not part of
|
|
CGAL, are the following third-party libraries, available under their own
|
|
licenses:
|
|
|
|
- CORE, in the directories "include/CGAL/CORE" and "src/CGALCore", is
|
|
licensed under the QPL (see LICENSE.QPL).
|
|
- ImageIO, in the directory "src/CGALimageIO", is licensed under the LGPL
|
|
(see LICENSE.LGPL).
|
|
- PDB, in the directory "include/CGAL/PDB" and "src/CGALPDB" is licensed
|
|
under the LGPL (see LICENSE.LGPL).
|
|
- OpenNL, in the directory "include/CGAL/OpenNL", is licensed under the LGPL
|
|
(see LICENSE.LGPL).
|
|
|
|
All other files that do not have an explicit copyright notice (e.g., all
|
|
examples and some demos) are licensed under a very permissive license. The
|
|
exact license text can be found in the file LICENSE.FREE_USE. Note that some
|
|
subdirectories have their own copy of LICENSE.FREE_USE. These copies have
|
|
the same license text and differ only in the copyright holder.
