Re: [aspectj-users] License for commercial product

["Ron Bodkin" <rbodkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Daniel,
 
From the AspectJ FAQ (http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/indextech.cgi/~checkout~/aspectj-home/doc/faq.html#q:license):
"Most users only want to use AspectJ to build programs they distribute. There are no restrictions here. When you distribute your program, be sure to include all the runtime classes from the aspectjrt.jar for that version of AspectJ. When distributing only the runtime classes, you need not provide any notice that the program was compiled with AspectJ or includes binaries from the AspectJ project, except as necessary to preserve the warranty disclaimers in our license."
 
While I'm not a lawyer, I am confident that the Common Public License under which AspectJ is distributed allows you to distribute aspectjrt.jar and the code generated from compiling your sources in any matter you like (including as part of a commercial distribution).
