I'm not a lawyer, but I'm not sure of this. I always thought that using dynamic linking would allow for a proper separation of GPL/non-GPL code. That means that a GPL caller and a non-GPL library should be ok, while the inverse it's not. right? -- Best regards, Alessandro Zummo, Tower Technologies - Torino, Italy http://www.towertech.it
