Thank you both for your explanations, it makes a lot more sense now.
@eedok - That page is exactly what I needed but couldn't find. Thanks! However it really seems that their statement:
Quote:The simple answer is "Yes", just dynamically link with SDL and you're fine.
You do not have to include the source code to your application, since the end user can drop in a new version of the SDL shared library, which is the intent of the license.
Conflicts with what is said on the license page, which has got me in a bind.
@FenrirWolf - Thank you for that as well. I am getting tripped up on 'using' and 'derviations' of work. My audio uses OpenAL right now as its backend, so I can see now it is under the LPGL license, especially since without OpenAL, it couldn't stand. However, If I made it so it did not have to have OpenAL, which is not possible for what I am dong, but still hypothically, then could I abide with what SDL says about "just dynamic link in the .dlls"?
Once again thank you for your time.[smile]
