人走茶凉 提交于 2019-11-28 07:58:43
Can I use Visual C# express to produce commercial applications? And are there any other licensing issues. Thank you Yes, you can. From the product information page : Visual Studio Express products are available at no charge and may be used for commercial, production usage subject to the license terms provided with each product. For example, you can use Express for Windows to create apps that you can then submit for sale in the Windows Store. As for "other licensing issues" - you should probably download it and then review the EULA to see whether there's anything you deem to be an issue. Yes,

问题 I am trying to get license information of uninstalled deb packages. dpkg --info <package-name>.deb does not give that information. Is there any command in ubuntu which will give this info? (In rpm world rpm -qpi gives that info) 回答1: There's no simple command that I know of. You can do something like this: dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile foo.deb |tar -xvO ./usr/share/doc/foo/copyright This prints the file to standard output. Edit Hmm, that sounds hard. After a quick perusal of the apt cache on my

Can I use Qt LGPL license and sell my application without any kind of restrictions? [closed]

谁说我不能喝 提交于 2019-11-28 03:14:14
I want to start a cross-platform project. I had my researches and now I am almost certain Qt is the right deal. There is a big obstacle here though: licensing . I want to sell my project and I also don't want to give out any source related to my work or pay for a license. I checked and noticed Qt offers both commercial and open source solutions. I have heard too many conflicting sayings on Qt licensing which confused me a lot. Some say that even if I use LGPL version of Qt, I still need to submit my code. Is this true? Can someone give me a simple explanation on Qt licenses and tell me if I

Following is the message-- and had to reject it because it violates our device and network abuse policy and section 4.4 of the Developer Distribution Agreement .

江枫思渺然 提交于 2019-11-27 21:49:17
问题 What is the best way to implement license enforcement in a Java application, so that the application cannot be "distributed" and used without the user purchasing the license? 回答1: Take a look at truelicense which is an open source framework for doing just that. If you want to make your own there is some documentation that explains the concepts and you can probably get some good ideas by looking at the code as well. EDIT: worth mentioning that it is not a copy-protection scheme 回答2: I suggest

How do you choose an open-source license? [closed]

大兔子大兔子 提交于 2019-11-27 20:28:43
I'm a software engineer, not a lawyer, and my university doesn't offer any courses geared toward licensing software. In fact, their law-related courses are lacking (but slowly growing in number). Where can I go to learn about open-source licenses and how to choose them? There are lots described here: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#SoftwareLicenses The decision of which one to use can be political, but should ultimately be determined by your plans/desires for the software. If you want to ensure it is always free then choose GPL or another "Copyleft" license. If you don't mind

Can pip (or setuptools, distribute etc…) list the license used by each installed package?

末鹿安然 提交于 2019-11-27 20:17:12
问题 I'm trying to audit a Python project with a large number of dependencies and while I can manually look up each project's homepage/license terms, it seems like most OSS packages should already contain the license name and version in their metadata. Unfortunately I can't find any options in pip or easy_install to list more than the package name and installed version (via pip freeze). Does anyone have pointers to a tool to list license metadata for Python packages? 回答1: You can use pkg_resources
