I have a couple of questions regarding SDL_ttf (version 2.0.3).
-
The file ‘SDL_ttf.h’ says that SDL_ttf is distributed under the GPL,
but the accompanying file ‘COPYING’ contains the LGPL. Which is the correct
license? -
The file ‘SDL_ttf.h’ also says that SDL_ttf is wrapper around FreeType
1.0, but the accompanying version of Freetype is 2.0. I guess the
information in ‘SDL_ttf.h’ is just outdated, right? -
I understand that there are patent issues if Freetype 2.0 is compiled
with the macro ‘TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER’ defined. This macro
is defined in the ‘ftoptions.h’ file in the copy of Freetype that is
distributed with SDL_ttf. I changed the ‘ftoptions.h’ file so that the
macro is no longer defined. That means I’m free of patent issues, right?–
