Hi,
if i want to distribute a program that is based on wxWidgets
then basically the GNU L-GPL applies, if i understand the
wxWindows Library License 3.1 correctly, is that right?
Is it then correct that i need to supply the object files
of my program, so others can re-link them against a new
version of wxWidgets (assumed that i link statically)?
In the wxWidgets-Book it is also mentioned that due to
different versions of Linux distributions and different
versions of installed GTKs programs may not start up
correctly on other users PCs.
What would be the best solution to this? Should i link
everything statically? Should i redistribute all necessary
libraries (a lot)?
Best regards,
Torsten.
