<p>Created page with &quot;The &#039;&#039;&#039;GNU Lesser General Public License&#039;&#039;&#039; (&#039;&#039;&#039;LGPL&#039;&#039;&#039;) is a <a href="/index.php/Free_software_license" title="Free software license">free software license</a> published by the Free Software Foundation (FSF). == Description == The license allows...&quot;</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''GNU Lesser General Public License''' ('''LGPL''') is a [[free software license]] published by the Free Software Foundation (FSF).<br /> <br /> == Description ==<br /> <br /> The license allows developers and companies to use and integrate software released under the LGPL into their own (even proprietary) software without being required by the terms of a strong copyleft license to release the source code of their own components.<br /> <br /> The license only requires software under the LGPL be modifiable by end users via source code availability. For proprietary software, code under the LGPL is usually used in the form of a shared [[Library (computing)|library]] such as a DLL, so that there is a clear separation between the proprietary and LGPL components.<br /> <br /> The LGPL is primarily used for [[Library (computing)|software libraries]], although it is also used by some stand-alone applications.<br /> <br /> The LGPL was developed as a compromise between the strong copyleft of the [[GNU General Public License]] (GPL) and more permissive licenses such as the BSD licenses and the MIT License.<br /> <br /> The word &quot;Lesser&quot; in the title shows that the LGPL does not guarantee the end user's complete freedom in the use of software; it only guarantees the freedom of modification for components licensed under the LGPL, but not for any proprietary components.<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> <br /> * [[Free software license]]<br /> <br /> == External links ==<br /> <br /> * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Lesser_General_Public_License GNU Lesser General Public License] @ Wikipedia<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Software licenses]]</div>
