License information for OPC Source Deliverables
|
|
|
|
|
|
A. Introduction
|
|
|
|
The OPC Foundation provides source code as sample code/reference
|
|
implementation. The source code is provided as-is, with no warranty,
|
|
support, or misrepresentation of the quality of code.
|
|
|
|
The OPC Foundation provides communication stacks, sample libraries,
|
|
sample applications and utilities. All sources are available either as a
|
|
downloadable ZIP file or in a repository on github
|
|
(https://github.com/OPCFoundation/ <https://github.com/OPCFoundation/>).
|
|
|
|
|
|
B. License models
|
|
|
|
The OPC Foundation provides different licenses depending on the
|
|
component and on the membership status of the user of the sources. A
|
|
single ZIP file or a single repository can contain multiple components
|
|
where the sources have different license models. The valid license is in
|
|
the header of each source file.
|
|
|
|
Following are basic rules on how the OPC Foundation licenses the
|
|
different components:
|
|
|
|
1. OPC UA core components (OPC UA Stacks, OPC UA Local Discovery Server
|
|
- LDS) follow a dual-license model:
|
|
* *OPC Foundation Corporate Members*: RCL
|
|
<https://opcfoundation.org/license/rcl.html>
|
|
enables OPC Foundation corporate members to deploy their
|
|
applications using the core component sources without being
|
|
required to disclose the application code.
|
|
|
|
* *Users that are not OPC Foundation corporate-members*: GPL 2.0
|
|
<https://opcfoundation.org/license/gpl.html>
|
|
Based on the GPL 2.0 license terms these users must disclose
|
|
their application code when using the core component sources.
|
|
|
|
2. Samples and Utilities:
|
|
All samples and most of the utilities are provided under the MIT
|
|
license <https://opcfoundation.org/license/mit.html> for OPC
|
|
Foundation Members and Non-Members.
