Dear community,

under which License do you deploy a piece of B4X (and so Java) code,
assuming the following:
-your Source is written in B4X
-and so using (shipping with) OpenJDK11 or just the JRE, which is under GNU GPL
-no further 3rd Party libs ?

I want give it for free, free to copy and using, but without changing my source and so without my B4X Source Code (or so my Java Source).
Erels License is clear so far: Do want you want! 🙂
1) But what's about the Java side? How does this effect my B4X Source, or the generated Java Code?
2) If i am using a 3rd Party lib with special License (for open source e.g.), does this effect my whole source or just the lib-source?

Thanks in advance
Patent

this is technically not true. openJDK has a GPL + classpath exception, that means that your code licence is not dependable on the jdk license
but as always, i am not a lawyer and you shouldnt take advice from strangers on the internet

so GPL + classpath exception means, that the compiler License does not affect my code License !!?

This is my understanding but I am not a lawyer. Maybe someone with a more judicial background can give us a proper answer to this.
