In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pioneer PureVision PRO-1140HD/PRO-940HD Plasma Display Panel, please first read this information carefully.
With the Pioneer PureVision PRO-1140HD/PRO-940HD, you can be assured of a high quality Plasma Display Panel with long-life and high reliability. To achieve images of exceptional quality, this Pioneer Plasma Display Panel incorporates state-of-the-art design and construction as well as precise and highly advanced technology.
The Pioneer PureVision PRO-1140HD/PRO-940HD incorporates the latest in color filter technology – Direct Color Filter. This filter technology improves color reproduction over previous models. It also eliminates the need for a glass panel to be layered in front of the plasma panel. This feature which furthers Pioneer's goal of reducing environmental waste in consumer electronics, during the manufacturing process and in the future during the recycling process.
Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the Pioneer PRO-1140HD/PRO-940HD Plasma Display System will diminish very slowly, which happens to all phosphor-based screens (for example, a traditional tube-type television). To enjoy beautiful and bright images on your Pioneer Plasma Display Panel for many years to come, please carefully read and follow the usage guidelines below.
Usage guidelines
All phosphor-based screens (including conventional tube-type televisions) can be affected by static images appearing for a prolonged period. Plasma displays are no exception to this rule. After-image and permanent effects on the screen can be avoided by taking some basic precautions.
- Whenever possible, avoid showing the same image or low-motion pictures (e.g. closed-captioned images or video game images which have static portions).
- Avoid viewing the On Screen Display (OSD) for extended periods (from a DVD player, VCR, and all other components).
- Do not leave the same picture, freeze-framed or paused continuously, shown over a long period of time when using the still picture mode from a TV, VCR, DVD player or any other component.
- Images which have both very bright areas and very dark areas side by side should not be displayed for a prolonged period of time.
- When playing a video game, the "GAME" mode setting within "AV Selection" is strongly recommended. However, please do not use this mode for long periods of time.
- After playing a game, displaying a PC image, or any still image, it is best to view a normal moving picture in the "WIDE" or "FULL" screen setting for over 3 times longer than the previous still/moving image was shown.
• After using the Plasma Display System, always switch the display to Standby. - Extensive viewing of content with top, bottom, or side masks may cause uneven wear. After viewing masked content, view full screen motion video for an equal or greater amount of time.
Installation guidelines
The Pioneer PureVision PRO-1140HD/PRO-940HD Plasma Display Panel incorporates a very thin design. To ensure safety, please take the proper measures when mounting or installing the Plasma Display. Prevent the unit from tipping over during vibration or accidental movement.
This product should be installed by using only parts and accessories designed by PIONEER. Use of installation or mounting accessories other than PIONEER-approved stands or brackets may result in instability and could cause injury. For custom installation, please consult the dealer where the unit was purchased. To ensure correct installation, experienced and qualified experts must install the unit. PIONEER is not responsible for accident or damage caused by the use of parts and/or accessories manufactured by other unauthorized companies.
To avoid malfunction and overheating when installing, make sure that the vents on the main unit are not blocked. To ensure proper venting:
- Distance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc. For the minimum space required around the unit, see page 18.
- Do not place the unit inside a narrow place where ventilation is poor.
- Do not cover with a cloth, etc.
- Clean the vents on the sides and rear of the unit to remove dust build-up. Use a vacuum cleaner set to its lowest suction setting to clear dust.
- Do not place the product on a carpet or blanket.
- Do not leave the product tilted at an angle without proper anchoring.
- Do not invert the product.
Using the unit without proper ventilation may cause the internal temperature to rise, and could result in possible malfunction. When the surrounding or internal temperature exceeds a certain degree, the display automatically powers OFF in order to cool the internal electronics.
Malfunction can be caused by many factors: inappropriate installation site, improper assembly/installation/mounting, improper operation of or modifications made to this product, etc. PIONEER is not responsible for accidents or malfunction caused by the above situations.
NOTE
The following points are typical effects and characteristics of a phosphor-based matrix display and as such, are not covered by the manufacturer's limited warranties:
- Permanent residual images upon the panel's phosphors.
- Existence of a small number of inactive light cells.
- Panel generated sounds (Fan motor noise, electrical circuit humming, glass panel buzzing, etc.)
CAUTION
PIONEER bears no responsibility for any damage arising from incorrect use of the product malfunctions when in use, other product related problems, and use of the product except in cases where the company must be liable.
Plasma Display protection function
When still images (such as photos and computer images) stay on the screen for an extended period of time, the screen slightly dims. This function automatically adjusts the brightness to protect the screen when a still image is detected. The screen is dimmed for approximately three minutes.
Information of pixel defect
Plasma screens display information using pixels. Pioneer plasma display panels contain a very large number of pixels. (A 42" panel has over 2.3 million pixels and a 50" panel has over 3.1 million pixels). All Pioneer plasma panels are manufactured using a very high level of ultra-precision technology and undergo individual quality control.
In rare cases, one or more pixels may remain switched Off or On. A pixel that remains Off appears as a tiny black dot on the screen while an active pixel appears as a dot of a particular color.
This effect is common to all plasma displays because it is a consequence of the technology.
If the defective pixels are visible at a normal viewing distance of between 2.5 and 3.5 meters (8.2 and 11.5 feet) while viewing a normal broadcast (i.e. not a test card, still image, or single color display) please contact Pioneer Customer Support Div. (USA) or Customer Satisfaction Dept. (CANADA). See back cover for contact information.
If, however, the fixed pixel(s) can only be seen from a distance of less than 8 feet or during single color displays then the appearance is considered normal for plasma technology.
Infrared rays
The Plasma Display releases infrared rays because of the panel characteristics. Surrounding equipment with remote controls and wireless headphones using infrared signals can experience interference. Move any affected equipment to a location away from the plasma panel.
Radio interference
While this product meets required specifications, the panel emits a small amount of electronic noise. This noise can affect radio, computer, and VCR reception. Move devices away from the panel to reduce or eliminate interference.
Plasma Display driving sound
The screen of the Plasma Display is composed of extremely fine pixels and these pixels emit light according to received video signals. This principle may cause you to hear a buzz or electrical hum coming from the Plasma Display.
Do not attach such items as labels and tape to the product.
- Labels and tape can mar or discolor the cabinet.
When not using the product for a long time
- If you do not use the product for a long time, the functions of the product may be adversely affected. Switch ON and run the product occasionally to maintain quality.
Condensation
- Condensation may take place on the surface or inside of the panel when the unit is rapidly moved from a cold place to a warm place or when a heater is turned On in the room. When condensation occurs, do not switch On the panel until condensation disappears. Operating the panel when there is condensation can damage the unit.
Cleaning the surface of the screen and the glossy surface of the front cabinet
- When cleaning the surface of the screen or the glossy surface of the front cabinet, gently wipe with the supplied cleaning cloth or a similar cloth (e.g., cotton, flannel, etc.). Using a dirty or course material cloth can scratch and damage the panel's surfaces.
- If you clean the surface of the screen with a wet cloth, water droplets may enter into the product, resulting in a malfunction.
Cleaning the cabinet
- When cleaning other panel surfaces, gently wipe with a clean soft cloth (e.g., cotton, flannel, etc.). Using a dirty or course material cloth can scratch and damage the panel's surfaces.
- The cabinet of this product is mostly composed of plastic. Do not use chemicals such as benzene or thinner to clean the cabinet. Using these chemicals can strip the surface coating or cause cabinet deterioration.
- Do not expose the product to a volatile gas or fluid such as pesticide. Do not apply rubber or vinyl products to the cabinet for long periods of time. The effect of plasticizer on the cabinet can strip the surface coating or cause deterioration.
- If you clean the surface of the cabinet with a wet cloth, water droplets may enter into the product, resulting in a malfunction.
Handles at the rear of the Plasma Display
- Do not remove the handles from the rear of the Plasma Display.
- When moving the Plasma Display, ask another person for help and use the handles attached to the rear of the Plasma Display. Do not move the Plasma Display by holding only a single handle. Use the handles as shown on page 18.
- Do not use the handles to hang, suspend, or anchor the panel.
Fan motor noise
The rotation speed of the cooling fan motor increases when the ambient temperature of the Plasma Display becomes high. You may hear the sound of the fan motor at that time.
About the menu window size following video format switch
The video program that you watch may be high definition (HD) or standard definition (SD). This Plasma Display is designed to scale to either HD or SD signals. If the video program's definition type changes while a menu window is displayed on the screen (for example: HD → SD or SD → HD), the menu size may temporarily shrink or enlarge until the scaling is complete. For example, switching between a TV program and an external digital video recorder (D-VHS) while viewing a menu can cause the menu window size to fluctuate.
If this happens, the menu will return to its normal size after two to three seconds. This action is normal, and does not indicate a problem with your Plasma Display Panel.
Image Retention
When a static image is shown on a display for several hours, a faint imprint of the image, known as image retention, can remain. This image retention may be temporary or permanent. Although caused by different things, image retention can occur on all display technologies, including plasma and LCD. On today's plasma displays, permanent image retention is less of a worry. Most image retention can be improved simply by watching a motion video sequence.
Image retention, also known as burn-in, can occur in all phosphor-based display systems (including CRT television systems—both direct view and projection—as well as plasma display systems). To avoid image retention or burn-in, do not show a still image for an extended period. Recommended guidelines are as follows:
- Do not display static images such as still images, fixed images from PC or TV game equipment, and/or fixed images such as time of day indicator or channel logo display for long periods.
- Do not display content in the 4:3 aspect ratio (black or gray bars on left and right side of content) or letter-box content (black bars above and below content) for extended periods of time, or use either of these viewing modes repeatedly within a short period of time. This plasma display system is equipped with multiple wide-screen viewing modes; use one of these screen modes to fill the entire screen with content.
- Displaying dark images after showing a still image for an extended time may cause image retention. In most cases, the image retention can be corrected by displaying bright images for a similar period of time.
Warning: Displaying a still image on the panel for a long period of time can cause the image to be burned in to the screen permanently.
CAUTION
Panel sticking and after-image lag
- Displaying the same images such as still images for a long time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the following two cases.
1 After-image lagging due to remaining electric load
When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed for more than one(1) minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the remaining electrical load. The after-images remaining on the screen disappears when moving images are shown. The time for the after-images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still image and the length of time displayed.
2 After-image (lag image) due to burning
Avoid displaying the same image on the Plasma Display continuously over a long period of time. If the same image is displayed continuously for several hours, or for shorter periods but over several days, a permanent after-image may remain on the screen due to burning of the fluorescent materials. Such images may become less noticeable if moving images are later displayed but they do not disappear completely.
NOTE
- When a program menu, TV Guide screen or frozen image is displayed for 5 to 10 minutes, the system automatically turns the screen off to prevent damage from screen burning.
- To prevent screen burning, the display position is automatically changed slightly when the power is switched on or the input changed. Depending on the broadcast content, some parts of the picture may not be visible.
Preventing damage from screen burning
- Please show images in full screen unless doing so causes copyright infringement. See page 63.
- The Energy save function can be set to help prevent screen burn-in. See page 61.

Use PCs that have a Windows Media Connect (WMC) server or DLNA compliant server for the Home Media Gallery function.
Take a Windows Media Connect (WMC) server for example: Microsoft Media Server is freeware and works with any music jukebox-type software, although is optimized for Windows Media Player.
Installing Windows Media Connect
Before installing Windows Media Connect, make sure that Windows XP SP2 and other required software are installed. See Microsoft Website for details regarding minimum system requirements and installation procedures.
1 Download the most recent version of Windows Media Player
This can be downloaded either directly from the Microsoft Website, or using the Windows Update Installer.
2 Download the most recent Windows Media Connect software
This can be downloaded either directly from the Microsoft Website, or using the Windows Update Installer.
Supported file formats
The table below shows supported file formats that can be played back or displayed on the Plasma Display. These formats are applicable to both network and USB sources. However, media server content protected by digital rights management, such as WMDRM10 (Digital Rights Management for Windows Media 10), may not play on the Plasma Display.
Type of files Format
| Movie MPEG PS (mpg, mpeg, mpe, m2p), MPEG-2 TS/TTS, WMV (asf, wmv), MPEG4 (mp4) |
| Music MP3 (mp3), LPCM, WAV (wav), WMA (asf, wma) |
| Photo JPEG (jpg, jpeg), BMP (bmp), PNG (png), TIFF (tif, tiff), GIF (gif) |
- Some formats may not be supported depending on the server type or version used.
NOTE
- Content may not play or display properly depending on the conditions of use.
- Sources for this panel include media servers that support DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) and Windows Media Connect (WMC) running on the LAN network, or SD Card, MS, MMC, xD Picture and CF that comply with the Mass Storage File System through a USB interface.
- Supported formats and contents are subject to change. Visit the Pioneer website for updated information: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com
- The Home Media Gallery functions as a WMDRM10-ND (Microsoft Windows Media DRM for networked devices). Content can only be navigated from the media servers that support WMDRM10-ND.
- The system may not be able to display content from incompatible memory cards.
- You cannot use the Home Media Gallery until dimmed elements on the menu screen turn white.
Digital Audio Output terminal (Optical)
NOTE
- When using the optical output terminal for networked audio or video:
If the Plasma Display and audio system are in the same room, you may experience an audio delay between the plasma speakers and the audio system. Try muting the speakers on the Plasma Display to correct this delay. However, this action may cause delays between audio and video.
Making network connections
To connect to a network, set up the Home Media Gallery through the panel's menu. Connect to a home network (LAN) via an Ethernet hub or cable directly to a media server.
NOTE
- Although the Home Media Gallery supports 10BASE-T, it is better to use 100BASE-TX for improved display quality and speed.
Connecting via an Ethernet hub
If you already operate one or more media servers on a local area network (LAN), connect the Plasma Display to the Ethernet (LAN) hub using a standard ("straight-through") Ethernet (LAN) cable. See the diagram below.

Troubleshooting
| Problem Possible Solution | |
| GENERAL | |
| No power • Is the power cord disconnected? (See page 23)Has POWER been turned on? (See page 24)Check if you pressed TV on the remote control. (See page 24)If the indicator on the system lights up red, press TV. | |
| Power is suddenly turned off • Is the sleep timer set? (See page 55)Check the power control setting. (See page 61)The system's internal temperature has increased. Clear/clean the vents. (See page 18)A malfunction may have occurred in the home network module. | |
| The system cannot be operated | External influences such as lightning, static electricity, etc., may cause failures.Try turning off the Plasma Display or unplugging the power cord. Wait one to two minutes then restore power to the panel. |
| Remote control unit does not operate | Check if POWER is Off. Activate the button when the POWER ON and STANDBY indicators are Off.Is the Mode switch set correctly? Slide it to the TV position. (See page 17)Are the batteries inserted with polarity aligned (+,-)? (See page 22)Are the batteries low? (Replace with new batteries.) (See page 22)Point the remote control directly at the panel's remote control sensor. (See page 22)Is the panel under strong or fluorescent lighting?Is fluorescent light blinding the remote control sensor? |
| POWER ON indicator or STANDBY indicator is blinking | The unit's internal protective circuits may have been activated.Unplug the panel's power cord from the power outlet. Wait one to two minutes then plug in the panel again.If the problem is not solved with this, contact the nearest Pioneer Authorized Independent Service Company,or the Customer Support Division (see back cover). |
| PICTURE/SOUND | |
| Image and sound are absent | Verify that the input source is a TV channel rather than from a PC or a DVD player. (See page 25)Check the Parental Control function. (See page 36)Enter a password to temporarily cancel the Parental Control function. (See page 40)Check the cable connection with the antenna. (See page 21)Check the cable connection with the source device. (See pages 66 to 72) |
| No picture • Is the connection to other components correct? (See pages 66 to 71)Is a non-compatible PC signal being input? (See page 70)Is picture adjustment correct? (See page 56) | |
| Sound but no picture | Check if energy-saving "Picture Off" option is selected. With this option selected, the screen is deactivated;only audio is output. To restore the screen display, press any button other than VOL +/- and MUTING. (See page 61) |
| Picture but no sound • Verify that the volume is set high enough to hear. (See page 26)Check if the sound is muted. (See page 26)When using a video or PC input source, verify that the audio terminals are also connected.(See pages 66 to 68 and 70) | |
| Sound is reversed between the right and left speakersSound but from only one speaker | Check if the speaker cable connections have been reversed between the right and left or if the speaker cable from either speaker has been disconnected. (See page 19)Has the balance been correctly adjusted? (See page 60) |
| Picture is cut off • Is the image position correct? (See page 62)Has the correct screen size been selected? (See page 64) | |
| Colors are too dark/light or appear strange | Adjust the picture tone. (See page 56)Is the room too bright? The picture may appear dim in a room that is too bright. |
| OTHER | |
| • TV-Guide data is unavailable | • If TV-Guide data cannot be obtained with ANTA selected for cable connection, select ANT.B for over the air. In addition, perform the TV-Guide setup again (see page 31):- Select "No" for cable service on Screen 3.- Select "Yes" for antenna service on Screen 5.- Select "ANT B IN" on Screen 4. |
| • An external device connected to the USB terminal does not operate | • Confirm that the device is connected to the display. (See page 74)• Disconnect then reconnect the USB cable. (See page 74)• Check that the USB cable is shorter than 5 m. (See page 74)• Check if the USB cable is properly connected. (See page 74)• Turn Off then On the main power to confirm that the USB device is working.• Check if the external device works correctly after the USB device was restarted.• Verify that the digital camera is set to take a picture.• Confirm that the digital camera is placed in Mass Storage mode.• To change the digital camera's configuration, refer to the camera's instruction manual. |
| • Photo data stored in a digital still camera cannot be read through USB interface | • Confirm that the device is connected to the display. (See page 74)• Verify that the digital camera is turned On. |
| • Panel sounds/noises | • Panel generated sounds, examples: Fan motor noise, Electrical Circuit Humming/Glass Panel buzzing are normal operation of a phosphor-based matrix display. Experiment with the available Energy Save modes to find the best setting for your use. (See page 61) |
| • Screen shows uneven brightness on the sides | • Play content that completely fills the screen until unevenness is minimized. Some signals may require the AV mode setting to be changed. (See page 63) |
| Home Media Gallery/NETWORK | |
| • No servers are found | • Confirm that the PC is On and not in Standby or Sleep. (nothing is chosen in "Select Servers"). When the PC has started with the "Wake On LAN" (WOL), check if the PC complies with WOL or if the WOL setup has been properly done on the device manager for BIOS or Windows.• Check the physical connections (hub, 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T, or crossed cable and other cable quality when cabled directly to a PC). It is strongly recommended to use 100BASE-TX for playback quality and display speed.• Check the logical connections (IP Address setup, DHCP, etc.). Confirm the IP Address is correct if acquired by Auto IP and Firewall setup. Also check if the IP Address is properly acquired with DHCP on the "Network Setup" screen that follows the "Setup" menu.• Check the PC if its media server (Windows Media Connect or DLNA compliant) is running. Restart if necessary. Check if one or more servers are On (this may cause malfunction).• Check if the PC is operating properly. Reboot the PC after confirming its specifications and setup.• Check the media server setup. If a client is registered manually the setup procedure may have to be run again. An option "Not Allowed" may have been selected for connections.• Wait for a short period then select "Update to Latest Information" from the Tool Menu. (See page 76) |
| • No previously connected server(s) found (items in "Select Servers" are dimmed) | • Confirm that the PC is On and not in Standby or Sleep. (nothing is chosen in "Select Servers"). When the PC has started with the "Wake On LAN" (WOL), check if the PC complies with WOL or if the WOL setup has been properly done on the device manager for BIOS or Windows.• Check the physical connections (hub, 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T or crossed cable and other cable quality when cabled directly to a PC). It is strongly recommended to use 100BASE-TX for playback quality and display speed.• Check the logical connections (IP Address setup, DHCP, etc.). Confirm the IP Address when acquired by Auto IP and Firewall setup. Also check if the IP Address is properly acquired with DHCP on the "Network Setup" screen that follows the "Setup" menu.• Check the PC if its media server (Windows Media Connect or DLNA compliant) is running. Restart if necessary. Check if one or more servers are On (this may cause malfunction).• Check if the PC is operating properly. Reboot the PC after confirming its specifications and setup.• Check the media server setup. A setup procedure may be required for connections if a client is registered manually. An option "Not Allowed" may have been selected for connections.• Wait for a while and select "Update to Latest Information" from the Tool Menu. (See page 76) |
| • An available server is selected but cannot be navigated | • Check if the server is correctly set up for file sharing, if the target folder has been deleted, or if one or more folders have been corrupted on the server.• Check if there are too many files in each folder. |
| • A server is arbitrarily selected | • This arbitrary selection happens when the server you used before had been set to display the top menu screen (if you reset it, other servers connected are also reset). When the "Single Server/USB" option is selected on the "Auto Connection Setup" screen that follows the "Setup" menu, the server is automatically accessed if only one server is connected. Use the Tool Menu to select the proper server. (See page 76) |
| • File/folder configuration differs from one server to another (strange configuration) | • The Media Navigator displays the server contents as classified by the server.• If no information (such as ID3 tag) is contained in the file, files cannot be classified on the server. |

Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
GNU General Public License
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
- This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
- You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. - You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License.
(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License. - You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code. - You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. - You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
- Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
Appendix
- If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
-
If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
-
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
- If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
-
BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
Copyright (C) yyyy name of author
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type 'show w'. This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type 'show c' for details.
The hypothetical commands 'show w' and 'show c' should show the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be called something other than 'show w' and 'show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items whatever suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program 'Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License.

Version 2.1, February 1999
Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software to make sure the software is free for all its users. This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially designated software packages typically libraries of the Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not the original version, so that the original author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be introduced by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder.
Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with the library.
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library.
Appendix
A more frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order to run.
GNU Lesser General Public License
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
- This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is addressed as "you".
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed under these terms. A “work based on the Library” means either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modification”.)
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses the Library does.
- You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
- You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this function must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function must still compute square roots.) These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
- You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a program that is not a library.
- You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
- A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License. However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
When a “work that uses the Library” uses material from a header file that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
- As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this License.
Also, you must do one of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application to use the modified definitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified materials from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that you distribute.
- You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
-
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
-
You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Library or works based on it.
Appendix
- Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
- If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Library at all.
For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License. - If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
- The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation. - If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
-
BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the ordinary General Public License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
Copyright (C) year name of author
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU Lesser General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the library 'Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
