Federico Mena Quintero 95b3f3e460 [ Merges from gtk-1-2 ]
Wed Sep  8 07:13:29 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* configure.in: fixed "GNU Make" check to pass with new make version
	3.77.95.

Fri Sep  3 16:04:41 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gtk-config.in (--version): don't echo @GTK_VERSION@, but
	@GTK_MAJOR_VERSION@.@GTK_MINOR_VERSION@.@GTK_MICRO_VERSION@, so the
	AM_PATH_GTK() macros don't get confused by the -pre1.

Thu Sep  2 19:02:37 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* configure.in (REBUILD): Change check for perl5
	  to check explicitely for v >= 5.002. (5.001
	  does not work with our scripts.)

Wed Aug 25 15:45:46 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* configure.in: evaluate $PERL for the perl version check. added
	--disable-rebuilds to give the user an option to completely disable
	any source autogeneration rules.

Mon Aug 23 23:16:14 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* configure.in: evaluate $ac_make when checking for GNU Make.

Mon Aug 23 19:11:17 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* docs/Makefile.am: added generation.txt.

	* Makefile.am: require automake 1.4, build README from README.in and
	INSTALL from INSTALL.in in dist-hook.

	* README.in:
	* INSTALL.in: new files to autogenerate README and INSTALL from.

	* configure.in: figure whether we have GNU Make

	* docs/generation.txt: minor additions/corrections.

Wed Aug 11 13:38:26 BST 1999 Tony Gale  <gale@gtk.org>

	* docs/gtkfaq.sgml: FAQ Update

July 30, 1999 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Fix autoconf warnings about cross compilation by
	trying to provide sane defaults for AC_TRY_RUN.

Fri Jul 16 22:20:21 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* ltconfig
	* ltmain.sh: upgrade to libtool 1.3.3

Thu Jul  8 11:30:18 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* INSTALL: Indicate that the --with-glib= configure
	time flag is unsupported.

Mon Jul  5 20:36:03 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* docs/generation.txt: Added a file that gives
	documenation about the autogeneration process for
	various autogenerated files.

Tue Jun 29 15:59:25 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* configure.in (LIBS): Look for libgmodule in the
	right location.

Thu Jun 17 13:57:31 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* docs/gtk_tut.sgml: Removed references to
	code examples in my directory on gtk.org as
	they should all be in the tutorial now.

	* docs/gtk_tut.sgml: Added sources for dial-test
	and scribble-xinput programs that were previously
	missing.

Fri Jun  4 00:08:59 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* TODO: Added entry about menu keyboard navigation, removed
	some finished items.

Mon May 31 00:11:24 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* acinclude.m4: Standardize on func_dgettext
	not func_gettext, so that the checks for dgettext
	actually are paid attention to.

Wed May  5 10:47:54 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* configure.in (LIBS): Add $INTLLIBS into $LIBS
	directly, rather than repeating the checks for
	gettext.

	* INSTALL: Added information about gettext and
	NLS support.

	* acinclude.m4 (LIBM): Check for dgettext, not
	just gettext. This should hopefully fix things wrt
	systems with old versions of GNU gettext installed.

Tue Jun 29 15:59:25 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* configure.in (LIBS): Look for libgmodule in the
	right location.

Thu Apr  1 16:58:10 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* autogen.sh: add --enable-maintainer-mode

	* configure.in: set ACLOCAL="$ACLOCAL $ACLOCAL_FLAGS"

Wed Mar 24 23:03:49 CST 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>

	* docs/gtk-config.1.in:
	  docs/Makefile.am:
	  configure.in: gtk-config is now generated.

	* docs/gtk-config.1: Removed, now generated.

Thu Sep 23 17:59:59 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_event_translate): grr, even if Gdk doesn't
        handle CreateNotify itself, still put out a debuging message for
        --gdk-debug=events. made the ReparentNotify debugging message more
        verbose.
        wrap xcoords translation for ConfigureEvents into an error trap,
        a destroy event may already be pending, and in that case, the
        actuall coordinate values are not at all critical.

Sat Sep 18 22:24:15 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkcc.c: Stop leaking the color_hash all over
	the place. Simplify and improve the logic.

Fri Sep 17 09:57:15 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdk.h, gdk/gdkcolor.c: make return types (gint or gboolean)
	for prototypes and function implementations consistent (reported
	by Tomas Ogren).

Tue Sep 14 18:23:01 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_event_translate): tell if expose events have
	send_event set in debugging output.
	(gdk_compress_exposures): default initialize the event so we don't
	operate on bogus values (namely send_event).

Thu Sep  2 16:33:59 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkwindow.c: When we receive an unexpected
	destroy notify on one of our windows, don't just
	warn about it, also mark our windows as destroyed.

Sun Sep  5 08:10:53 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkfont.c (gdk_font_hash_insert): Add
	  name => font and name => fontset hashes. The
	  name => fontset hash is a _big_ win since we
	  weren't previously caching fontsets at all and loading
	  fontsets is expensive. The name => font hash
	  is less of a win, but it does save us from doing
	  repeated XQueryFont calls on the same font.

	* gdk/gdkprivate.h (struct _GdkFontPrivate): Add a names
	  list so we can remove font/fontset from hash.

Thu Sep  2 19:02:37 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkproperty.c (gdk_atom_intern): Remove useless
	  and slightly confusing test. [ XInternAtom (,,TRUE)
	  will never return None ].

Sat Sep  4 08:39:26 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkwindow.c (gdk_window_set_geometry_hints)
	  gdk/gdkwindow.c (gdk_window_set_hints):

	Don't omit setting the properties if flags == 0 -
	there may be an existing set of properties there
	already. (Very old bug. Would it be better to
	delete the property instead?)

	* gdk/gdkselection.c (gdk_selection_property_get): Fix
	  spelling error in comment.

Wed Sep  1 14:05:30 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkimage.c (gdk_image_new): Use gdk_error_trap_push()
	  to avoid stomping over gdk_error_warnings.

	* gdk/gdkimage.c (gdk_image_new): compute image->bpp
	  as (bits_per_pixel + 7) / 8. This gives the same
	  result as before for multiples of 8, but actually
	  a "reasonable" value for 1bit or 4bit displays.

Mon Aug 23 19:11:17 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/Makefile.am: minor cleanups, strip spaces on build rules for
	GNU Make.

Tue Aug 17 07:43:04 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_event_translate): give a debugging note when
	discarding configure events.

1999-08-18  Federico Mena Quintero  <federico@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkpixmap.c (gdk_pixmap_unref): g_return_if_fail() the
	refcount is greater than zero.

	* gdk/gdkwindow.c (gdk_window_unref): Likewise.

	* gdk/gdkfont.c (gdk_font_unref): Likewise.

	* gdk/gdkgc.c (gdk_gc_unref): Likewise.

	* gdk/gdkdnd.c (gdk_drag_context_unref): Likewise.

Wed Aug 11 01:04:57 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkproperty.c (gdk_property_get): Fix assumption
	that format 32 => sizeof(item) == 4. It really is
	sizeof(long).

Tue Jun 29 23:02:42 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdk.c (gdk_x_error / gdk_x_io_error): Don't
	core dump at all on X IO errors, only core dump
	if --enable-debug for X errors.

Thu Jun 24 17:06:23 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_event_translate): removed old ""Got event for
	unknown window:" message. disabled ConfigureNotify discarding code,
	because it led to events being processed out of order.

Thu Jun 24 12:22:02 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkglobals.c: preinitialize gdk_error_code to 0.

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_event_send_client_message_to_all_recurse): since
	we export this function, supress error warnings and don't reset the
	error code in the first half of this function.

	* gdk/gdk.c (gdk_x_error): set gdk_error_code to the actuall X error
	code (instead of just -1) so gdk_error_trap_pop() reveals something
	actually informative about the error that happened.

	* gdk/*.c:
	don't rely on gdk_error_code being -1 if an error occoured, but just
	gdk_error_code != 0.

Thu Jun 24 11:50:07 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_event_apply_filters): advance the filter list
	pointer *before* invoking the filter function, so we at least don't
	crash if a filter is removed that is currently executed. window filters
	*really* need to be made truely reentrant at some point.

Mon Jun 14 11:10:15 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_event_translate): print the atom name in the
	PropertyNotify debug messages.

Wed May  5 22:51:06 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

        Patch from Sung-Hyun Nam <namsh@lgic.co.kr>

	* gdk/gdkim.c: Fix cut-and-paste errors for
	x/y and PreeditAttributes/StatusAttributes.

Wed May  5 22:24:21 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkwindow.c (gdk_window_set_geometry_hints): Change
	G_MAXINT to 2^16 to alleviate overflow problems in
	various window managers.

Wed Apr 21 00:42:08 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkfont.c (gdk_text_measure): Fix the return value
        for fontsets.

Wed May  5 12:42:01 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkwindow.c (gdk_window_set_geometry_hints):
	Initialize size_hints.x and size_hints.y because kwm
	brokenly pays attention to them.
	(Bug #1181 -  Lars Heete <hel@admin.de>)

Wed May  5 11:38:56 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkrgb.c (gdk_rgb_choose_visual): Free the
	return value of gdk_list_visuals().
	(Bug #1193 - Morten Welinder <terra@diku.dk>)

Tue May  4 11:12:56 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* gdk/gdkim.c (gdk_im_real_open): cast the return value of
	XSetIMValues to (void *) when comparing to NULL, to workaround
	the problem of some compilers barfing since older X headers don't
	have the prototype for it.

Mon Apr 19 10:11:12 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkcolor.c (gdk_colormap_new): Fix memory leak
	for pseudocolor where colormap->colors was double
	allocated.

	* gdk/gdkcolor.c (gdk_colormap_alloc1): Store the
	color value in the hash table with the pixel filled
	in so when we do later hash table lookups, the color
	value is correct.

Sun May  2 15:29:45 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* gdk/gdkdraw.c (gdk_draw_lines): check private->destroyed before
	making the call

Tue Apr 27 11:17:35 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkdnd.c (xdnd_set_{targets,actions}): Fix leak
	pointed out by Morten Welinder <terra@diku.dk>.

Wed Apr 21 14:20:22 1999  George Lebl  <jirka@5z.com>

	* gdk/gdkwindow.c: (gdk_window_remove_filter) correctly remove the
	  default filter from the list

Wed Apr 21 14:20:22 1999  George Lebl  <jirka@5z.com>

	* gdk/gdkwindow.c: (gdk_window_remove_filter) correctly remove the
	  default filter from the list

Fri Apr 16 20:41:43 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* gdk/gdk.c: #include "gdkkeysyms.h" for gdk_XConvertCase #defines

	* gtk/gtkfontsel.c (gtk_font_selection_create_xlfd): use
	g_strdup_printf instead of calcing the length separately

Tue Apr 13 02:49:33 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkwindow.c: removed some silly #ifdef HAVE_CONFIG
	that we don't do in many other places. (Fixing duplicate
	#include of config.h)

	* gdk/gdkevents.c: include gdkinput.h _after_ config.h.
	Otherwise, #ifndef XINPUT_NONE check in the latter
	doesn't work. (Bug #546)

Sun Apr 11 14:38:03 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkpixmap.c (_gdk_pixmap_create_from_xpm): check for color
	"None" case insensitive.

Tue Apr  6 16:38:51 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkselection.c:
	Add error traps so if the other end of the connection
	dies, we survive.

Tue Apr  6 12:24:21 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkdnd.c (gdk_drag_motion): Separate out the
	dest_xid field into two fields - one for the window
	to send in messages, one to indicate the last looked
	up window for caching purposes. This is needed, so
	that Leave messages get the correct window.

Mon Apr  5 13:21:30 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_event_check, gdk_event_prepare):
	Fix warning created by people mucking around
	with the gsource API.

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_io_invoke, gdk_input_add_full):
	Change mapping between GIOCondition and GdkInputCondition
	to match the way the Linux kernel does it. This should
	fix problems where closed pipes were no longer signalling
	GDK_INPUT_READ on systems with a native poll().

Mon Apr  5 17:11:57 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkpixmap.c (_gdk_pixmap_create_from_xpm): Check
	explicitly for the string "None" - it is in the XPM
	spec and some servers treat unknown colors in odd ways
	(like asking the user!)

Thu Apr  1 16:58:10 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* gdk/gdkevents.c: made "->" into a "." of previous change so
	it compiles

Thu Apr  1 18:41:25 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkevents.c (gdk_compress_exposures): Set the
	window field of the event structure before calling
	user filters.

1999-03-31  Federico Mena Quintero  <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>

	* gdk/gdk.c (gdk_init_check): Use False as the last argument to
	XInternAtom() here.  This is a particularly Old And Nasty(tm) bug.

Mon Mar 29 17:31:52 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkim.c (gdk_mbstowcs): Free the value of the
	intermediate text property - prevents major memory
        leak when gdk_use_mb.
	gtk-d3august-990311-0: Bj|rn Augustsson <d3august@dtek.chalmers.se>

Mon Mar 29 17:02:58 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

        Patches from Akira Higuchi <a-higuti@math.sci.hokudai.ac.jp>
	gtk-a-higuti-990322-[0-3]

	* gdk/gdkfont.c (gdk_text_extents_wc): Make  work when
	sizeof(wchar_t) != sizeof (GdkWChar)

	* configure.in: Fix confusion between GTK_LOCALE_[C]FLAGS
	that was causing -DX_LOCALE not	to work.

	* gtk/gtkrc.c (gtk_rc_init):
	X_LOCALE will never have LC_MESSAGES defined

	* gdk/gdk.c (gdk_init_check):
	Remove --xim-preedit and --xim-status from argv properly.

	* gdk/gdkim.c (gdk_ic_real_new): Add a gdk_flush() so
	that the client window is present on the X server
	before we pass it to the input method.

Tue Mar  9 10:46:49 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkdnd.c (motif_find_drag_window): Fix bug where
	if --display is specified on the command line, than
	the drag window will not be created on that display.

Tue Mar  9 10:38:24 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gdk/gdkproperty.c (gdk_atom_intern): Fixed bug where
	lookups with only_if_exists == TRUE were inserting
	bogus values into the atom cache.

Wed Mar 17 09:00:00 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkselection.c (gdk_selection_property_get): first XFree(t),
	then reset it to NULL.

	* gdk/gdkcolor.c:
	(gdk_colors_free):
	(gdk_colormap_free_colors): use colormap->colors[in_pixels[i]] as the
	key for g_hash_table_remove() in both functions, this prevents us
	from accessing possibly uninitialized portions of a GdkColor structure
	where we are only interested in its pixel value.

Tue Mar  9 01:01:28 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gdk/gdkfont.c (gdk_font_load): first lookup the xfont ID in our
	font hash table, if we have a GdkFontPrivate entry for this font
	already, simply increment its reference count, provided by Olaf Dietsche
	<olaf.dietsche+list.gtk@netcologne.de>.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2.1, February 1999
Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts
as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence
the version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You
can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide
complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is
modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
introduced by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot
effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that
any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser
General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use
this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
libraries into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
the library.
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less
of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages
are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be
allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free
library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this
case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
that program using a modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
be combined with the library in order to run.
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
Each licensee is addressed as "you".
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
included without limitation in the term "modification".)
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
and what the program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
in the event an application does not supply such function or
table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
its purpose remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
application-supplied function or table used by this function must
be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
root function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
collective works based on the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
the scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
the Library into a program that is not a library.
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
medium customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
Library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
to use the modified definitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
least three years, to give the same user the materials
specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
than the cost of performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
specified materials from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
the Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
this License.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
integrity of the free software distribution system which is
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
written in the body of this License.
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
the Free Software Foundation.
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
ordinary General Public License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
<one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public
License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
