| [modeling-pmc] question about introducing a 3rd party dependency |
|
Hi, I have a question concerning the possible introduction of a 3rd party dependency in our eTrice project [0]. We are thinking about using the Prolog Cafe [1] for model validation. We already did an experiment as proof of concept [2]. If we decide to go with Prolog this would introduce two dependencies. One at development time (to compile a Prolog program into Java). And a second one at runtime (because the compiled code needs a runtime library). The questionable part is the second dependency which is as of [3] of type "prerequisite". Since Prolog Cafe is EPL licensed - do you expect any problems? I assume I have to open an IPZilla? In this case do I have to choose "[request] to use, reference, or distribute third-party code that is maintained elsewhere (not already in Orbit) " in the portal? Search for "Prolog" returned no hits. So it seems I have to enter a new one, right? Thanks for your assistance, Henrik [0] http://projects.eclipse.org/projects/modeling.mdt.etrice [1] http://code.google.com/p/prolog-cafe/ [2] https://git.eclipse.org/r/15210 [3] http://www.eclipse.org/org/documents/Eclipse_Policy_and_Procedure_for_3rd_Party_Dependencies_Final.pdf |
