Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit
you’ve just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how
you can maximize the fun and excitement your
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of
your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that
lets the sound come through loud and clear without
annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly,
without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing
“comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound.
So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and
harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by
setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your
hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
@Start your volume control at a low setting.
@Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound
level:
@Set the dial and leave it there.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Since hearing damage from loud noise is often
undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer
and the Electronic Industries Association’s
Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid
prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of
sound levels is included for your protection.
Decibel
Level Example
30Quiet library, soft whispers
40
Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic
50Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office
60Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine
70Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
80
Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock
at two feet.
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS
UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
90
Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers,
thunderclap
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane
180 Rocket launching pad
Information courtesy of the Deafness Research Foundation.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent
hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we
want you listening for a lifetime.
A large Phillips screwdriver ( No. 2) is required to
mount the rack mount bracket. Please procure one.

Do not obstruct the ventilation
holes
Do not use the player on a shaggy rug, bed, or sofa, and
do not cover the player with a cloth, etc. Doing so will
prevent heat dissipation and could lead to damage.

En
Keep away from heat
Do not place the player on top of an amplifier or other
device generating heat. When installing in a rack, to avoid
the heat generated by the amplifier and other devices,
place it on a shelf below the amplifier wheneverpossible.
Caution
• When installing the player, leave a space of at least
10 cm between the player and the wall. Also, to
facilitate heat radiation, leave some space between
the player and other equipment. Failure to do so will
cause heat to build up inside the player, leading to
fire.
The player should be used within a surrounding
environmental temperature of +5 to +35
of 85% or less (without obstructing the ventilation holes).
Do not install in poorly ventilated places, places where
the humidity is too high or in places exposed to direct
sunlight (or strong artificial light).

Moving the player
If you need to move this unit, first remove the disc if
there’s one loaded, and close the disc tray. Next, press
STANDBY/ON to switch the power to standby,
checking that the POWER OFF indication on the front panel display goes off. Wait at least 10 seconds. Lastly,
disconnect the power cord.
Never lift or move the unit during playback — discs rotate
at a high speed and may be damaged.
Transporting the set
When transporting the set, always use the box in which it
was originally packed, being sure not to drop it or subject
it to vibrations or shocks.
Do not let the set be exposed to heat or water during
transportation.
Be sure to remove any disc before transporting.
Transporting the set with a disc in it could scratch the
disk or damage the inside of the set. Also, disconnect
cables. Transporting with cables connected could
damage the terminals.
When using chemical-impregnated wipes, etc., r ead the
wipe’s cautions carefully.
Unplug the power cord from the power outlet when
cleaning the player.
Caution for when the unit is
installed in a rack with a glass
door
Do not press the OPEN/CLOSE on the remote control
to open the disc tray while the glass door is closed. The
door will hamper the movement of the disc tray, and the
unit could be damaged.
Cleaning the pickup lens
The player’s lens should not become dirty in normal use,
but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust
or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer authorized service
center. Although lens cleaners for players are
commercially available, we advise against using them
since some may damage the lens.
02
Turn the power off when not
using the player
Depending on the conditions of the TV broadcast signals,
striped patterns may appear on the screen when the TV is
turned on while the player’s power is turned on. This is not
a malfunction with the player or TV. If this happens, turn
the player’s power off. In the same way, noise may be
heard in the sound of a radio.
Condensation
If the player is moved suddenly from a cold place into a
warm room (in winter, for example) or if the temperature
in the room in which the player is installed rises suddenly
due to a heater, etc., water droplets (condensation) may
form inside (on operating parts and the lens). When
condensation is present, the player will not operate
properly and playback is not possible. Let the player stand
at room temperature for 1 or 2 hours with the power
turned on
condensation). The water droplets will dissipate and
playback will become possible.
Condensation can also occur in the summer if the player
is exposed to the direct wind from an air-conditioner. If
this happens, move the player to a different place.

Cleaning the player
Handling discs
Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
Do not scratch the disc’s signal surface or let it get dirty.
Do not load more than one disc into the player at a time.
Do not glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a
pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped writing
instrument. These could all damage the disc.
Storing discs
Always store discs in their cases, and place the cases
vertically, avoiding places exposed to high temperature or
humidity, direct sunlight or extremely low temperatures.
Be sure to read the cautions included with the disc.
Cleaning discs
It may not be possible to play the disc if there are
fingerprints or dust on it. In this case, using a cleaning
cloth, etc., to wipe the disc gently from the center toward
the outer edge. Do not use a dirty cleaning cloth.
Normally, wipe the player with a soft cloth. For tough dirt,
apply some neutral detergent diluted in 5 to 6 parts water
to a soft cloth, wring out thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then
wipe again with a dry cloth.
Note that getting alcohol, thinner, benzene or insecticide
on the player could cause the print and coating to peel off.
Also, avoid leaving rubber or vinyl products in contact
with the player for long periods of time, as this could
damage the cabinet.
Do not use benzene, thinner or other volatile chemicals.
Also do not use record spray or antistatic agents.
For tough dirt, apply some water to a soft cloth, wr ing out
thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe off the moisture
with a dry cloth.

02
Specially shaped discs (heart-shaped, hexagonal, etc.)
cannot be used on this player. Never use such discs, as
they will damage the player.
Condensation on discs
If the disc is moved suddenly from a cold place into a
warm room (in winter, for example), water droplets
(condensation) may form on the disc surface. Discs will
not play properly if there is condensation on them.
Carefully wipe off the water droplets from the disc surface
before using the disc.
Extended use of recording discs
Playing a specific section of a recording disc (BD-R/RE,
DVD-R/RW, etc.) continuously for extended periods of
time may reduce performance of the recorded surface
and make the disc unplayable. To avoid this, take
measures so that no single specific section is played for
extended periods of time, and replace the disc
periodically.

Commands and statuses
Serial interface control is performed by the computer sending commands, etc., and the player returning the status.
When command execution is fully completed, the player returns a completion message (R<CR>). If an error is
generated, the player returns the error code (for example, E04<CR>).

without address and the PL command with address.
The PL command without address is set to
respective discs, but how the PL command with address is
handled differs according to the address mode.

according to the address mode. See Table 2 for details.
*3 For the SM command, handling differs according to
the address mode. See Table 1 for details.

OVERVIEW
This package contains C software to implement JPEG
image compression and decompression. JPEG
(pronounced “jay-peg”) is a standardized compression
method for full-color and gray-scale images. JPEG is
intended for compressing real-world scenes; line drawings,
cartoons and other non-realistic images are not
it. JPEG is lossy, meaning that the output image is not
su
exactly identical to the input image. Hence you must not
use JPEG if you have to have identical output bits. However,
on typical photographic images, very good compression
levels can be obtained with no visible ch ange, and
remarkably high compression levels are possible if you can
tolerate a low-quality image. For more details, see the
references, or just experiment with various compression
settings.
This software implements JPEG baseline, extendedsequential, and progressive compression processes.
Provision is made for supporting all variants of these
processes, although some uncommon parameter settings
aren’t implemented yet. For legal reasons, we are not
distribut
ing code for the arithmetic-coding variants of
JPEG; see LEGAL ISSUES. We have made no provision for
supporting the hierarchical or lossless processes defined
in the standard.
We provide a set of library routines for reading and writing
JPEG image files, plus two sample applications “cjpeg” and
“djpeg”, which use the library to perform conversion
between JPEG and some other popular image file formats.
The library is intended to be reused in other applications.
In order to support file
have included considerable functionality beyond the bare
JPEG coding/decoding capability; for example, the color
quantization modules are not strictly part of JPEG
decoding, but they are essential for output to colormapped
file formats or colormapped displays. These extra functions
can be compiled out of the library if not required for a
particular application. We have also included jpegtran, a
utility for lossless transcoding between different JPEG
processes, and “rdjpgcom” and “wrjpgcom”, two simple

The emphasis in designing this software has been on
achieving portability and flexibility, while also making it fast
enough to be useful. In particular, the software is not
intended to be read as a tutorial on JPEG. (See the
REFERENCES section for introductory material.) Rather, it
is intended to be reliable, portable, industrial-strength
code. We do not claim to have achieved that goal in every
aspect of the software, but we strive for it.
We welcome the use of this software as a component of
commercial products. No royalty is required, but we do ask
for an acknowledgement in product documentation, as
described under LEGAL ISSUES.

It appears that the arithmetic coding option of the JPEG

used without obtaining one or more licenses. For this
reason, support for arithmetic coding has been removed

mode, it is unlikely that very many implementations will
support it.) So far as we are aware, there are no patent
restrictions on the remaining code.
The IJG distribution formerly included code to read and
write GIF files. To avoid entanglement with the Unisys LZW
patent, GIF reading support has been removed altogether,
and the GIF writer has been simplified to produce
uncompressed GIFs. This technique does not use the LZW
algorithm; the resulting GIF files are larger than usual, but
are readable by all standard GIF decoders.

We highly recommend reading one or more of these

JPEG software.
The best short technical introduction to the JPEG
compression algorithm is
Wallace, Gregory K. “The JPEG Still Picture Compression
Standard”,
Communications of the ACM, April 1991 (vol. 34 no. 4),
pp. 30-44.

PostScript file containing a revised version of Wallace’s
article is available at ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/
wallace.ps.gz. The file (actually a preprint for an article that
appeared in IEEE Trans. Consumer Electronics) omits the
sample images that appeared in CACM, but it includes
corrections and some added material. Note: the Wallace
article is copyright ACM and IEEE, and it may not be used
for commercial purposes.
A somewhat less technical, more leisurely introduction to
JPEG can be found in The Data Compression Book by Mark
Nelson and Jean-loup Gailly, published by M&T Books (New
2nd ed. 199
York),
good explanations and example C code for a multitude of
compression methods including JPEG. It is an excellent
source if you are comfortable reading C code but don’t
know much about data compression in general. The book’s
JPEG sample code is f ar from industrial-st rength, but when
you are ready to look at a full implementation, you’ve got
one here...
The best full description of JPEG is the textbook “JPEG Still
Image Data Compression Standard” by William B.
Pennebaker and Joan L. Mitchell, published by Van
Nostrand Reinhold, 1993, ISBN 0-442-01272-1. Price
US$59.95, 638 pp. The book includes the complete text of
the ISO JPEG standards (DIS 10918-1 and draft DIS 10918-
2). This is by far the most complete exposition of JPEG in
existence, and we highly recommend it.
The JPEG standard itself is not available electronically; you
must order a paper copy t
feel a need to own a certified official copy, we recommend
buying the Pennebaker and Mitchell book instead; it’s
much cheaper and includes a great deal of useful
explanatory material.) In the USA, copies of the standard
may be ordered from ANSI Sales at (212) 642-4900, or from
Global Engineering Documents at (800) 854-7179. (ANSI
doesn’t take credit card orders, but Global does.) It’s not
cheap: as of 1992, ANSI was charging $95 for Part 1 and $47
for Part 2, plus 7% shipping/handling. The standard is
divided into two parts, Part 1 being the actual specification,
while Part 2 covers compliance testing methods. Part 1 is
titled “Digital Compre
Still Images, Part 1: Requirements and guidelines” and has
document numbers ISO/IEC IS 10918-1, ITU-T T.81. Part 2 is
titled “Digital Compression and Coding of Continuous-tone
Still Images, Part 2: Compliance testing” and has
document numbers ISO/IEC IS 10918-2, ITU-T T.83.
Some extensions to the original JPEG standard are defined
in JPEG Part 3, a newer ISO standard numbered ISO/IEC IS
10918-3 and ITU-T T.84. IJG currently does not support any
Part 3 extensions.
The JPEG standard does not specify all details of an
interchangeable file format. For the omitted details we
follow the “JFIF” conventions, revision 1.02. A copy of the
JFIF spec is available from:

Numerous viewing and image manipulation programs now
support JPEG. (Quite a few of them use this library to do so.)
The JPEG FAQ described above lists some of the more popular free and shareware viewers, and tells where to
obtain them on Internet.
If you are on a Unix machine, we highly recommend Jef
Poskanzer’s free PBMPLUS software, which provides many
useful operations on PPM-format image files. In particular,
it can convert PPM images to and from a wide range of
other formats, thus making cjpeg/djpeg considerably more
useful. The latest version is distributed by the NetPBM
and is available from

as portable as the IJG software is; you are likely to have
difficulty making it work on any non-Unix machine.
A different free JPEG implementation, written by the PVRG
group at Stanford, is available from ftp://
havefun.stanford.edu/pub/jpeg/. This program is designed
for research and experimentation rather than production
use; it is slower, harder to use, and less portable than the
IJG code, but it is easier to read and modify. Also, the PVRG
supports

other hand, it doesn’t do progressive JPEG.)
FILE FORMAT WARS
Some JPEG programs produce files that are not compatible
with our library. The root of the problem is that the ISO
JPEG committee failed to specify a concrete file format.
Some vendors “filled in the blanks” on their own, creating proprietary formats that no one else could read. (For
example, none of the early commercial JPEG
implementations for the Macintosh were able to exchange
compressed files.)
The file format we have adopted is called JFIF (see
REFERENCES). This format has been agreed to by a
number of major commercial JPEG vendors, and it has
become the de facto standard. JFIF is a minimal or “lo
end”
representation. We recommend the use of TIFF/JPEG
(TIFF revision 6.0 as modified by TIFF Technical Note #2) for
“high end” applications that need to record a lot of
additional data about an image. TIFF/JPEG is fairly new and
not yet widely supported, unfortunately.
The upcoming JPEG Part 3 standard defines a file format
called SPIFF. SPIFF is int eroperable with JFIF, in the sense
that most JFIF decoders should be able to read the most
common variant of SPIFF. SPIFF has some technical
advantages over JFIF, but its major claim to fame is simply
that it is an official standard rather than an informal one. At
this point it is unclear whether SPIFF will supersede JFIF or
whether JFIF will remain the de-facto standard. IJG intends
to support SPIFF once the standard is frozen, but we have
not decided whether i
format or not. (In any case, our decoder will remain capable
of reading JFIF indefinitely.)
Various proprietary file formats incorporating JPEG
compression also exist. We have little or no sympathy for
the existence of these formats. Indeed, one of the original reasons for developing this free software was to help force
convergence on common, open format standards for JPEG
files. Don’t use a proprietary file format!
TO DO
The major thrust for v7 will probably be improvement of
visual quality. The current method for scal
tization tables is known not to be very good at low Q

The licenses for most software are designed to take away
your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU
General Public License is intended to guarantee your
freedom to share and change free software - to make sure
the software is free for all its users. This General Public
License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s
software and to any other program whose authors commit
to using it. (Some other Free
is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to
freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get
it if you want it, that you can change the software or use
pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you
can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that
forbid anyone to deny you these righ
surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain
responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the
software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program,
whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all
the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show
them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the
software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal

permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to
make certain that everyone understands that there is no
warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by
someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to
know that what they have is not the original, so that any
problems introduced by others will not reflect on the
original authors’ reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by
software patents. We wish to avoid the dange r that
tributors of a free program will individually obtain
is

patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary.
To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must
be licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distributi on
and modification follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,
DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it
may be distributed under the terms of t hi s G en eral Public
License. The “Program”, below, refers to any such
program or work, and a “work
means either the Program or any derivative work under
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the
Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with
modifications and/or translated into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
the term “modification”.) Each licensee is addressed as
“you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and
modification are not covered by this License; they are
outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not
restricted, and the output from the Program is covered
ontents constitute a work based on the
ly if its c
on
Program (independent of having been made by running
the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the
Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the
Program’s 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 License and to the absence of any
warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a
copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for th
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 Program or
any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the
Program, 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) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent
notices stating that you changed the files and the date
of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or
publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived
from the Program or an
a whole at no charge to all third parties under the
terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands
interactively when run, you must cause it, when
started running for such interactive use in the most
ordinary way, to print or display an announcement
including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice
that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you
provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the
program under these conditions, and telling the user
how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the
Program itself is intera
print such an announcement, your work based on the
Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a
whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived
from the Program, and can be reasonably considered
independent and separate works in themselves, then this
License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections
when you distribute them a s separate works. But when
you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which
is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the
whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire
whole, and thus to each and every part regardless o
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
Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based
on the Program with the Program (or with a work based
64
on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution

sical act of transferring
ereof, to be licensed as
medium does not bring the other work under the scope
of this License.
3. You may copy and distrib
based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable
form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided
that you also do one of the following:
a) 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; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least
three years, to give any third party, for a charge no
more than your cost of physically performing source
distribution, a complete machine-re
corresponding source code, to be distributed under
the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to
the offer to distribute corresponding source code.
(This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial
distribution and only if you received the program in
object code or executable form with such an offer, in
accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of
the work for ma ki ng m od if ic at io ns to i t. Fo r an executable
work, complete source code means all the source c
dules it contains, plus any associated interface
for all mo
definition files, plus the scripts used to control
compilation and installation of the executable. However,
as a special exception, the source code distributed need
not include anything that is normally distributed (in
either source or binary form) with the major components
(compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself
accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or 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 pla ce cou nt s a s d is tribution of the source code,
even though third parti
source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the
Program except as expressly provided under this
License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,
sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will
automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
from you under this License will not have their licenses
terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.
5. You are not required to accept
have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you
permission to modify or distribute the Program or its
derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if
you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying
or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License
to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributing or modifying the Program or works based on
it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work
based on the Program), the recipien
eives a license from the original licensor to copy,
rec
distribute or modify the Program 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 to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of
patent infringement or for any otherreason (not limited
to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you
ly
(whether by court order, agreement or ot
contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you
cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your
obligations under this License and any other pertinent
obligations, then as a consequence you may not
distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the
Program by all those who receive copies directly or
indirectly through you, then the only way you could
satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely
from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or
o
f wh
unenforceable under any particu
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 license practices. Many people have made

application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to
decide if he or she is willing to distribute software
gh any other system
throu
that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is
believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of th e Program is restricted
in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted
interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the
Program under this License 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
License incorporates the limitation as if written in the
body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/
versions of
or new
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 Program specifies a version number of this License
which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the
option of following the terms and conditions either of
ode
that version or of any later version published by the Free
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a

different, write to the author to ask for permission. For
software which is copyrighted by the Free Software
Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be
guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all
derivatives of our free software and of promoting the
sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11.BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF
CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE
PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE
STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/
OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS”
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER

PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.
SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU

REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE
LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT
HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM 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 PROGRAM
(INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR

OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER

SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the

This General Public License does not permit incorporating
your program into proprietary programs. If
a subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to
permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If
this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
Public License instead of this License.
The licenses for most software are designed to take away
your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU
General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your
freedom to share and change free software - to make sure
the software is free
General Public License, applies to some specially
designated software packages - typically libraries - of the
Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to
use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first think
carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General
Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular
case, based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to
freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (
service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
it if you want it; that you can change the software and use
pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed
that you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that
forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to
surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to
certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the
library or if you modify it.
For example, if you dis tribute copies of the library, whether
is
or for a fe e, yo u mus t give the recipients all the rights
grat
that we gave you. You must make sure that they, too,
receive or can get the source code. If you link other code
with the library, you must provide complete object files to
the recipients, so that they can relink them with the library
after mak ing c hang es to t he li brary and recompiling it. And
you must show them these terms s o they kno w thei r rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we
copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license,
which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or
modify the library.
To prot
that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the
library is modified by someone else and passed on, the
recipients should know that what they have is not the
original version, so that the original author’s reputation will
not be affected by problems that might be introduced by
others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the
existence of any free program. We wish to make sure that a
company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent
holder. Therefore,
for all its us
ect each distribut
we insist that any pate
ers. This license, the Lesser
arge for this
and ch
or, we want to make it very clear
nt license obtained
for a version of the library must be consistent with the full
freedom of use specified in this license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by
the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the
GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certain
designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary
General Public License. We use this license for certain
libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into nonfree programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically
or using a shared library
legally speakin
original library. The ordinary General Public License
therefore permits such linking only if the entire
combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other
code with the library.
We call this license the “Lesser” General Public License
because it does Less to protect the user’s freedom than the
ordinary General Public Li cense. It also provides other free
software developers Less of an advantage over compet
non-
free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we
use the ordinary General Public License for many libraries.
However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special
need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain
library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve
this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library.
A more frequent case is that a free library does the same
job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is
little to gain by limiting the free library to
so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in nonfree programs enables a greater number of people to use a
large body of free software. For example, permission to use
the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many
more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as
well as its variant, the GNU Linux operating system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less
protective of the users’ fre
user of a program that is linked with the Library has the
freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a
modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribut ion
and modification follow. Pay close attention to the
difference between a “work based on the library” and a
“work that uses the library”. The former contains code
derived from the library, whereas the latter must be
combined with the library in order to run.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,
DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or
her progra
ot
copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may
be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General
Public License (also called “this License”). Each licensee
is addressed as “you”.
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”
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 sour ce code for all
modules it contains, plus any associated interface
definition files, plu
compilation and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and
modification are not covered by this License; 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
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 License and to the
absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this
License 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 an
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library,
portion
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 wo rk to be licensed at
no charge to all third parties under the terms of this
License.
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, t
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
who le. If i dent ifi abl e se ctio ns o f th at wo rk are not derived
from
independent and separate works in themselves, then this
License, 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 License, 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 ri
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 License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU
General Public License instead of this License to a given
copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the
notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the
ordinary GNU General Pu
of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
ordinary GNU General Public License 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 License 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
deriv
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 portio
the
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 License.
However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with the
Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the
Library (because it contains portions of the Library),
rather than a “work that uses the library”. The executable
is therefore covered by this License. Section 6 states
terms for distribution of such executables.
When a “work th

though the source code is not. Whether this is true is
09
especially significant if the work can be linked without
the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold
for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters,
data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros
and small inline functions (ten lines or less in length),
then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless
of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables
containing this object code plus portions of the Library
will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you
may distribute the object code for the work u
s of Section 6. Any executa bles containing that work
term
also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked
directly with the Library itself.
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also
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, provided that the terms permit modification of
the work for the customer’s own use and reverse
engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the
work that the Library is used in it and that the Library an
e are covered by this License. You must supply a
its us
copy of this License. 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 License. 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 were used in the
work (which must be distributed under Sections 1 and
2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with
the Library, with the complete machine-readable “work
that uses the Library”, as object code and/or so
ode, so that the user can modify the Library and then
c
relink to produce a modified executable containing the
modified Library. (It is understood that the user who
changes the contents of definitions files in the Library
will not necessarily be able to recompile the
application to use the modified definitions.)
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,
er installs one, as long as the modified version
e us
if th
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.
exec
utable, the required form of the “work that

uses the Library” must include any data and utility
programs needed forreproducing the executable from it.
However, as a special exception, the materials to be
distributed need not include anything that is normally
distributed (in either source or binary form) with the
major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
operating system on which th e executable runs, unless
that component itself accompanies the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the
license restrictions of other proprietary
t normally accompany the operating system. Such a
no
contradiction means you cannot use both them and the
Library together in an executable that you distribute.
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 License, 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
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
66
this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,
En

libraries that do

sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and
will automatically terminate your rights under this
License. However, parties w
rights, from you under this License will not have their
licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, 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 License. Therefore, by modifying
or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to
do so, and all its terms and conditions for copyi
ing or modifying the Library or works based on it.
distribut
10.Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based
on the Library), the recipient automatically receives a
license 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
s with this License.
third partie
11.I
f, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of
d
patent infringement or for any otherreason (not limited
to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you
(whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that
contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you
cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your
obligations under this License and any other pertinent
obligations, then as a consequence you may not
distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the
Library by all those who receive copies directly or
tly through you, then the only way you could
direc
in
urce
satisfy both it and this License 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 license practices. Many people h

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 License.
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 License may add an explicit

among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this
License incorporates the limitation as if written in the
body of this License.
13.The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/
or new versions of the Lesser General Public License
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 License
which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the
option of following the term
at version or of any later version published by the Free
th
Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
license version number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
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. For software which is copyrighted by the
Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software
Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
ision
will be guided by the two goals of preserving the
dec
the
free status of all derivatives of our free software and of
promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
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/OR OTHER PARTIES

16.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE
LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT
HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED
ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,

ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the
greatest possible use to the public, we recommend making
it free software that everyone can redistribute and change.
You can do so by permitting redistribution under these
terms (or, alternatively, under the terms
blic License).
General Pu
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the
library. It is safest to attach them to the sta rt of each source
file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and
each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a
pointer to where the full notice is found.
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
