If you want to distribute a combined work, you&#39;ll have to use the following license;

**Proprietary Source code + GPL Source code**

 - Either static or dynamically linked: [You must release both parts as GPL][1].


**Proprietary Source code + LGPL Source code**

 - statically linked:
   - Either [you must release both parts as LGPL][2].
   - Or [provide everything that allow the user to relink the application with a different version of the LGPL source code][3]. In this case the other requirements are the same as if it was dynamically linked.
 - dynamically linked: [LGPL code stays LGPL, you can keep the proprietary code proprietary][4].

See also [executing a (L)GPL program from proprietary Source code][5].

**Update (November 2014)**: [A Comprehensive Tutorial and Guide][6] contains a clear an detailed description of the (L)GPL and its usage, including distribution. I recommend it for more details.

How can I discard/round the `millisecond` part, better if the `second` part is also removed from a `timestamp` w/o `timezone` ?

Discard millisecond part from timestamp

In my view model I have a IsMale value that has the value true or false.

In my UI I wish to bind it to the following radio buttons:

    &lt;label&gt;Male
       &lt;input type=&quot;radio&quot; name=&quot;IsMale&quot; value=&quot;true&quot; data-bind=&quot;checked:IsMale&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;/label&gt; 
    &lt;label&gt;Female
       &lt;input type=&quot;radio&quot; name=&quot;IsMale&quot; value=&quot;false&quot; data-bind=&quot;checked:IsMale&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;/label&gt;

The problem I think is `checked` expects a string &quot;true&quot; / &quot;false&quot;. So my question is, how can I get this 2-way binding w/ this UI and model?

I have read on the web that following combination exists : 

**Proprietary Source code + GPL Source code** - &gt; GPL Source code ( All code has to be released under GPL)

**Proprietary Source code + LGPL Source code** - &gt; Proprietary Source code ( All code remains Proprietary )

Now how does **statically/Dynamically** linking GPL and LGPL code works with the above combination?

Here&#39;s what I really want: a site collecting re-usable components for Android.

I have found various [small][1] [lists][2], the biggest being the [Open Intents](http://www.openintents.org/en/libraries) library list. Mark Murphy (hi, Mark) also lists the library projects he publishes.

None of this is of the same order as, say [Cocoa Controls][3] or [Cocoa Objects][4].

Where do you go to grab re-usable libraries for Android?

**Edit**: this isn&#39;t just about library projects, though this would be ideal. On the flip side: where do I publish my open-sourced library projects, over and above just &quot;Github&quot;.

I need to integrate VoIP service in my Android application.&lt;br&gt;
Is there any free (best open source) library ?

I need that the library at least allows voice call over internet and not necessarily internet to phone (like 2 Skype account).

Since I first saw a `dist/` directory in many open source projects, usually on GitHub, I&#39;ve been wondering what it means.

With `dist`, `vendor`, `lib`, `src`, and many other folder names that we see quite often, I sometimes wonder how I should name my own folders.

Correct me if I&#39;m wrong!

* src: Contains the **sources**. Sometimes only the pure sources, sometimes with the minified version, depends on the project.
* vendor: Contains other dependencies, like other open source projects.
* lib: Good question, it&#39;s really close to `vendor` actually, depending on the project we can see one or another or both...
* dist: From what I saw, it contains the &quot;production&quot; files, the one we should use if we want to use the *library*.

Why is open source so confusing? Isn&#39;t it possible to do things clearer? At least per language because some languages use specific names.

What is the meaning of the /dist directory in open source projects?

I am new to using React for development.

Can someone list the advantages and disadvantages in using ReactJS.
Are there any performance issues with using this library for large projects.

Advantages and Disadvantages of using ReactJS

I use mingw from here: `http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingwbuilds/files/host-windows/releases/4.7.2/32-bit/threads-posix/sjlj/x32-4.7.2-release-posix-sjlj-rev2.7z/download`

And I&#39;ve sucessfully managed to link statically `libstdc++-6.dll` and `libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll` by using `-static-libgcc -static-libstdc++` parameters, but I cannot find a command for doing the same with `libwinpthread-1.dll`.

how to do static linking of libwinpthread-1.dll in mingw?

I have to admit that with the release of iOS 8 I am a bit confused about dynamic and static frameworks in iOS.

I am looking for a way to distribute a library that I created, and I need to support iOS 7 and above. (Note: This will be a proprietary framework. I cannot use cocoa pods, and I also cannot distribute the source). Here is what I already know:

- iOS 8 introduced &quot;embedded frameworks&quot; for iOS, but, as I understand, they do not work for iOS 7, only for iOS 8 and above.
- I have the option of distributing my library as a static library (.a file) and also distribute the headers. I know that this is a common way of dealing with the situation, but I would like to find something simpler than that (and also to bundle some resources with it, if possible).
- I have also found that iOS 7 does not support dynamic .framework libraries (only static) because it doesn&#39;t support dynamic linking. But iOS 8 does, as well as static linking.

And here are my questions regarding this information:

- I saw that I can create a .framework target, and make it static, by changing the Mach-O type to &quot;static library. Would that be enough in order to support iOS 7 without any problems, and also to distribute my library as a .framework bundle? If so, why is &quot;embedded frameworks&quot; in iOS 8 that big of a deal, as many resources on the internet are suggesting? Am I missing something?
- Is it necessary to codesign the .framework just as I do with any other application I make?
- What if I need to include other resources (like Core Data or Images) with my .framework file? Will I need to make a separate .bundle file for that?

iOS Static vs Dynamic frameworks clarifications

I am trying to create a static executable with Rust. I am *not* trying to statically link a particular library, I am trying to create a executable which *does not use dynamic linking at all*. I have the following (otherwise working) test:

    $ cat hello.rs
    fn main()
        {
        print!(&quot;Hello, world!\n&quot;);
        }
    $ rustc hello.rs -o hello
    $ file hello
    hello: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),
     dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, [etc]

Note the `dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2`. Static executables have `statically linked` instead. (And in my case `corrupted section header size`, although I would be pleasantly astonished if I can convince Rust to replicate *that*.)

What options do I need to pass to `rustc` to get it to generate a actual static executable (for concreteness: one which even `file` agrees is statically linked).


How to generate statically linked executables?

This might sound like a silly question but If you have a thirdParty.framework file, can you tell if it&#39;s static or dynamic? I mean, do they look different if you look inside?

iOS is it a static or a dynamic framework?

I have a problem with linking my mixed language framework to a project.&lt;p&gt;
1. I create a framework with Swift and Objective-C classes.
1. The main logic was stored in the Swift file. For example the class with a method that calls NSLog(&quot;Swift log was called&quot;).
1. Objective-C file has a class that has a method in which I create an instance of Swift class and call Swift-log method.
1. I link this framework with my Objective-C project, I can call all that I need in this project, but when I want to build this project I receive error `linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)`
  
    And warnings:
```
ld: warning: Could not find auto-linked library &#39;swiftFoundation&#39;
ld: warning: Could not find auto-linked library &#39;swiftDarwin&#39;
ld: warning: Could not find auto-linked library &#39;swiftCoreFoundation&#39;
ld: warning: Could not find auto-linked library &#39;swiftCore&#39;
ld: warning: Could not find auto-linked library &#39;swiftCoreGraphics&#39;

ld: warning: Could not find auto-linked library &#39;swiftDispatch&#39;
ld: warning: Could not find auto-linked library &#39;swiftSwiftOnoneSupport&#39;
```

I also saw the solution with importing empty Swift-file, but it necessary to make a project without any trash.
