As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser General Public License, and the
"GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
"The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License, other than an Application or a
Combined Work as defined below.
An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided by the Library, but which is not
otherwise based on the Library. Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a
mode of using an interface provided by the Library.
A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an Application with the Library. The
particular version of the Library with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
Version".
The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the Corresponding Source for the
Combined Work, excluding any source code for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in
isolation, are based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the object code and/or source
code for the Application, including any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the
Combined Work from the Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License without being bound by
section 3 of the GNU GPL.
2. Conveying Modified Versions.
If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a facility refers to a function or data
to be supplied by an Application that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified version:
"a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an
Application does not supply the function or data, the facility still operates, and performs whatever
part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
"b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of this License applicable to that
copy.
3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from a header file that is part of
the Library. You may convey such object code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the
incorporated material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors,
or small macros, inline functions and templates (ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the
following:
"a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the Library is used in it and that
the Library and its use are covered by this License.
"b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license document.
4. Combined Works.
