[pdt-dev] Re: resolving PDT build issues
|
As I see we haven't got an approval for JFlex. Actually, this Jar is
only used for generating PHP lexer sources. I can update the ANT task
that generates lexers to fetch the JFlex Jar from the internet,
generate files, and then remove it.
So people's computers would behind the scenes be installing non-EPL
code? Suggest running that one past the folks at legal@xxxxxxxxxxx.
Seems dodgy. Will they be prompted to accept the non-EPL EULA?
Regarding JavaCUP we got an IP approval already.
It doesn't show up in your IP log, which is one of the Must Do bugs for
Galileo:

Do you know whether internal Jars are signed as well? We have JFlex &

I'm not sure if it recurses INTO jars; I would guess no.
BTW, I'm going to pretend that the aforementioned jars have already been
approved bby the Eclipse Legal team, documented in IPzilla with CQs, and not
mention that redistribution of non-CQ-approved code at eclipse.org is
illegal, since you already know that.
I'm going to further NOT mention that code released under GPL (or
GPL-equivalents) is not compatible w/ EPL and therefore cannot be approved
in IPzilla for redistribution.
Of course if you want to redistribute these jars you can do so @ sourceforge
or a similar place, but eclipse.org != GPL-land. That's how CDT gets around
this limitation for redistribution of MinGW.
