Hi,
I've developped a piece of software using GCC as a C++ front-end and the SystemC library.
The SystemC license can be found from www.systemc.org, and here: http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/vrac/License.pdf
I would like to know wether it is legal to distribute this software and wether it is possible to do so under a free license.
The architecture of the software is as follow :
+------------+ +-------------+ +-------------+ | | | | | | | A | | B | | C | | | | | | | | SystemC |<--1-->| My software |<--2-->| GCC | | | | | | | +------------+ +-------------+ +-------------+
Where <--n--> can be either a static or a dynamic link.
I would like to use as permissive licenses as possible. Ideally, I would like the following :
A = SystemC license B = LGPL C = GPL
Is this possible ? (From what I understood, I can distribute A+B and let the user download C and compile A+B+C himself)
If not, do you have a solution ?
Or maybe, the following would fit :
A = Dual license SystemC + (L)GPL B = (L)GPL C = GPL
?
Thanks for your help,
