Re: [torqueusers] Torque Licence
Please do not use GPL as anything linking against your library will also need to be GPL licensed. If your DRMAA library only calls the PBS native API, then I guess it should be OK to use LGPL, since it is relatively independent of the Torque source tree anyway. BTW, can you work with Daniel? We will be (AFAIK) using the same Java binding for GridEngine and Condor. Rayson On 10/12/05, Guillaume ALLEON <guillaume.alleon@laposte.net> wrote:
Hi,
We are about to release a DRMAA binding to Torque. Our primary interest would be to use a LGPL or GPL Licence but I must admit that I don't know if this is compatible with the Torque licence. I did not find any licence related to Torque in the distribution only the OpenPBS licence for which I don't know if point 6 applies.
As well we are using with a slight modification the Java binding from SUN SGE. Is there any known problem ?

Guys, A little while back, I went through the JNI code for the Java language binding, and removed all of the SGE-dependent pieces. It should now be in a state where the SGE Java language binding can be used on top of any DRM with a DRMAA C binding. More to the point, I'm pretty sure that Peter is planning to integrate the SGE Java language with his Condor C binding. Peter, is this true? Daniel Rayson Ho wrote On 10/13/05 17:30,:

You are right, this will be the next step after reaching a stable state for the Condor DRMAA C library. It would be could if you could maintain a stable link to the latest implementation - clicking around in th SGE web pages in no fun. If we want to use DRMAA.ORG for such issues, we should ask Hrabri for a Wiki installation. I could also offer free hosting space on my own machines. Regards, Peter.
