Hello, I read through the University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License the MIT license, and related webpages. I don't understand it. I am attempting to make a commercial game in C++ that uses the libc++ Standard Library. I don't intend on ever releasing the source code. What am I required to do to use the library? Thank you, Mackenzie Moore
When in doubt, please consult with your lawyer. —Owen> On Jun 15, 2015, at 2:00 AM, Mackenzie Moore <mackenzie at geckobot.com> wrote: > > Hello, I read through the University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License the MIT license, and related webpages.

However, we do have: http://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#license Which will give you an idea of what the license is about. The *intention* of the license is to allow you to use libc++ and compiler_rt with no restrictions or obligations. Similarly, the intention of the LLVM/UIUC license is to not require releasing your code either. -Chris
