License question #522
Comments
According to this FAQ entry the GPL only covers the tools themselves and their source code, not the content/files/programs you generate using those tools. The CMake file that is generated by However, things are more complicated for the BinaryData.cpp files. These were also generated by a FRUT executable and directly end up in the build output. I am not exactly sure here, but to my knowledge your generated BinaryData.cpp is not covered by the GPL because it doesn't contain any code from the tools that made it. |
Hi @jaquevagon, Welcome to FRUT! Thank you for considering using it. I would like to add a few points to @TheSlowGrowth's reply.
I hope this clarifies a few things for you. I'm looking forward to helping you with any issue that you might encounter when using FRUT. Cheers! |
Hi,
I am looking into building a commercial JUCE plugin but I would like to also use CMake, so I found this repo. But now I'm unsure how this works regarding your license (GPL).
If I generate my plugin's cmake file using FRUT, the generated file will include the Reprojucer.cmake which has a GPL license comment at the top.
Does this mean I would have to open source my plugin's cmake file as well?
Best,
Jaques
