"exactly" in the meaning of "quite the opposite of". Oracle did not try to cover code intended to compile with their Java libraries, but rather tried to prohibit a compatible reimplementation from scratch of the Java code implementing the APIs. So Oracle was trying to prohibit reimplementing the code _behind_ the APIs, whereas we are talking about the implications of the APIs on the code _calling_ them. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
