7.4 GCC Public License
The Code: GPL
The source code is distributed under the GNU General Public License version 3, with the
addition under section 7 of an exception described in the GCC Runtime Library Exception,
version 3.1 as follows (or see the file COPYING.RUNTIME):
GCC RUNTIME LIBRARY EXCEPTION
Version 3.1, 31 March 2009
Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This GCC Runtime Library Exception ("Exception") is an additional permission under section
7 of the GNU General Public License, version 3 ("GPLv3"). It applies to a given file (the
"Runtime Library") that bears a notice placed by the copyright holder of the file stating that
the file is governed by GPLv3 along with this Exception.
When you use GCC to compile a program, GCC may combine portions of certain GCC
header files and runtime libraries with the compiled program. The purpose of this Exception
is to allow compilation of non-GPL (including proprietary) programs to use, in this way, the
header files and runtime libraries covered by this Exception.
0. Definitions.
A file is an "Independent Module" if it either requires the Runtime Library for execution after
a Compilation Process, or makes use of an interface provided by the Runtime Library, but is
not otherwise based on the Runtime Library.
"GCC" means a version of the GNU Compiler Collection, with or without modifications,
governed by version 3 (or a specified later version) of the GNU General Public License
(GPL) with the option of using any subsequent versions published by the FSF.
"GPL-compatible Software" is software whose conditions of propagation, modification and
use would permit combination with GCC in accord with the license of GCC.
"Target Code" refers to output from any compiler for a real or virtual target processor
architecture, in executable form or suitable for input to an assembler, loader, linker and/or
execution phase. Notwithstanding that, Target Code does not include data in any format that
is used as a compiler intermediate representation, or used for producing a compiler
intermediate representation.
The "Compilation Process" transforms code entirely represented in non-intermediate
languages designed for human-written code, and/or in Java Virtual Machine byte code, into
Target Code. Thus, for example, use of source code generators and preprocessors need
not be considered part of the Compilation Process, since the Compilation Process can be
understood as starting with the output of the generators or preprocessors.
