Hi Tristan, If I understand correctly what GHDL does when it generates an executable: the executable is linked with the ghdl run-time library (GRT). But GRT is under the GPL license. So the generated executable is GPL too.
With others GCC front-ends there are exceptions appended to the GPL license for run-time library portions of the compilers. For example with Gnu Ada there is the GMGPL exception: http://gnuada.sourceforge.net/pmwiki.php/Main/GMGPL Is the GPL licensing of GRT is a deliberate choice ? Perhaps I am mistaking about the licensing of the generated executable... I need clarifications :) _______________________________________________ Ghdl-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/ghdl-discuss
