4 The OpenJDK source code made available by Oracle America, Inc. (Oracle) at
|
|
iris@41274
|
5 openjdk.java.net ("OpenJDK Code") is distributed under the terms of the GNU
|
|
iris@41274
|
6 General Public License <http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html> version 2
|
|
duke@0
|

9 Linking this OpenJDK Code statically or dynamically with other code
|
|
duke@0
|
10 is making a combined work based on this library. Thus, the terms
|
|
duke@0
|
11 and conditions of GPL2 cover the whole combination.

13 As a special exception, Oracle gives you permission to link this

iris@41274
|
14 OpenJDK Code with certain code licensed by Oracle as indicated at

duke@0

16 ("Designated Exception Modules") to produce an executable,
|
|
duke@0
|
17 regardless of the license terms of the Designated Exception Modules,
|
|
duke@0
|
18 and to copy and distribute the resulting executable under GPL2,
|
|
duke@0
|
19 provided that the Designated Exception Modules continue to be
|
|
iris@41274
|
20 governed by the licenses under which they were offered by Oracle.
|
|

|
21
|
|
iris@41274
|
22 As such, it allows licensees and sublicensees of Oracle's GPL2 OpenJDK Code
|
|
iris@41274
|
23 to build an executable that includes those portions of necessary code that
|
|
iris@41274
|
24 Oracle could not provide under GPL2 (or that Oracle has provided under GPL2
|
|
iris@41274
|
25 with the Classpath exception). If you modify or add to the OpenJDK code,
|
|
iris@41274
|
26 that new GPL2 code may still be combined with Designated Exception Modules
|
|
iris@41274
|
27 if the new code is made subject to this exception by its copyright holder.
