IUPAC/InChI-Trust Licence for the International Chemical Identifier (InChI)
Software version 1.04, September 2011
("IUPAC/InChI-Trust InChI Licence No. 1.0")
Copyright (C) IUPAC and InChI Trust Limited
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under
the terms of the IUPAC/InChI Trust InChI Licence No. 1.0), or (at your option)
any later version.
Terms and Conditions for Copying, Distribution and Modification of the InChI
Software
0. This Licence Agreement applies to any software library or other program
which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized
party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Licence. The
Licensee is addressed as "you".
'IUPAC' means the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so
as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of
those functions and data) to form executables.
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work which has
been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the Library" means either
the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work
containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications
and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter,
translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".)
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source
code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition
files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the
library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered
by this Licence; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using
the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only
if its contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use
of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what
the Library does and what the program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete source
code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and
disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this Licence
and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this Licence
along with the Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at
your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus
forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modifications
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all
of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you
changed the files and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third
parties under the terms of this Licence. This requirement does not extend to
any "work that uses the Library" that might also be compiled or linked against
the "work based on the Library."
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data
to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other than as
an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith
effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such function
or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose
remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that
is entirely well-defined independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection
2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this
function must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
root function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable
sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably
considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this Licence, and
its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate
works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a
work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this Licence, whose permissions for other Licensees extend to the entire whole,
and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your
rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the
right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on
the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the
Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or
distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of
this Licence.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public Licence
instead of this Licence to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must
alter all the notices that refer to this Licence, so that they refer to the
ordinary GNU General Public Licence, version 2, instead of to this Licence.
(If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public Licence
has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.)
Do not make any other change in these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so
the ordinary GNU General Public Licence applies to all subsequent copies and
derivative works made from that copy.
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into
a program that is not a library.
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it,
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1
and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a
designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from
the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even
though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object
code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is
designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called
a "work that uses the Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative
work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this Licence.
6. You may combine or link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to
produce a work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
under terms of your choice.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is
used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this Licence.
You must supply a copy of this Licence. If the work during execution displays
copyright notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among
them, as well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this Licence.
Also, you must do one of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source
code for the Library including whatever changes to the Library were used in the
work (which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above).
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library.
A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library
already present on the user's computer system, rather than copying library
functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified
version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified
version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to
give the same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge
no more than the cost of performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a
designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified materials
from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that
you have already sent this user a copy.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library
side-by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not
covered by this Licence, and distribute such a combined library, provided that
the separate distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other
library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two
things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the
Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be distributed
under the terms of the Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it
is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying
uncombined form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library
except as expressly provided under this Licence. Any attempt otherwise to copy,
modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will
automatically terminate your rights under this Licence. However, parties who
have received copies, or rights, from you under this Licence will not have their
Licences terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this Licence, since you have not signed it.
However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Library
or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not
accept this Licence. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or
any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this Licence to
do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
the Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library),
the recipient automatically receives a Licence from the original licensor to
copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and
conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients'
exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing
compliance by third parties with this Licence.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions
are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that
contradict the conditions of this Licence, they do not excuse you from the
conditions of this Licence. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy
simultaneously your obligations under this
Licence and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not
distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent Licence would not
permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive
copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy
both it and this Licence would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the
Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, and
the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or
other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this
section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software
distribution system which is implemented by public Licence practices. Many
people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software
distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to
distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that
choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a
consequence of the rest of this Licence.
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright
holder who places the Library under this Licence may add an explicit
geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that
distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such
case, this Licence incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this
Licence.
13. IUPAC and the InChI Trust Limited may publish revised and/or new versions of
the IUPAC/InChI Trust Licence for the International Chemical Identifier (InChI)
Software from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the
present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies
a version number of this Licence which applied to it and "any later version",
you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version
or of any later version published by IUPAC and the InChI Trust Limited.
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs
whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the author
to ask for permission.
15. If you modify the Library in any way whatsoever, the output from any such
modified Library may not be referred to as 'InChI' or any similar name. Any
attempt to refer to such output as 'InChI' will automatically terminate your
rights under this Licence.
NO WARRANTY
15. Because the Library is licensed free of charge, there is no warranty for the
Library, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Except when otherwise stated
in writing the copyright holders and other parties provide the Library "as is"
without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied, including, but not
limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a
particular purpose. The entire risk as to the quality and performance of the
Library is with you. Should the Library prove defective, you assume the cost of
all necessary servicing, repair or correction.
16. In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing will
any copyright holder, or any party who may modify and/or redistribute the
Library as permitted above, be liable to you for damages, including any general,
special, incidental or consequential damages arising out of the use or inability
to use the Library (including but not limited to loss of data or data being
rendered inaccurate or losses sustained by you or third parties or a failure of
the Library to operate with any other software), even if such holder or other
party has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
