GWT-Ext License Information
The GWT-Ext software and sample code is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public Licence (LGPL), v 3.0.
Copyright (C) 2007-2008 GWT-Ext LLC. GWT-Ext is licensed under the LGPL v3.0 which is sufficiently flexible to allow use of GWT-Ext in both open source and commercial projects.
Using GWT-Ext (by importing GWT-Ext’s classes and interfaces in your Java code), and extending GWT-Ext (by subclassing or implementation of an extension interface) is considered by the authors of GWT-Ext to be dynamic linking. Hence our interpretation of the LGPL is that the use of the unmodified GWT-Ext source does not affect the license of your application code. Additionally the authors of GWT-Ext do not consider the output of compiling your application that uses GWT-Ext using JDK and / or the GWT compiler as derivative work of GWT-Ext.
The use of the unmodified GWT-Ext binary never affects the license of your application or distribution. If you need to modify GWT-Ext explicit permission is required.
This clarification has been added as there’s been some ambiguity on the use of GWT and LGPL libraries and I wanted to ensure that users feel comfortable using GWT-Ext without fearing that they may be violating the license.
