ToonMariner Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html Read the site - essentially you don't have to provide a licence - the only thing you need to state is that you provide the code without warranty and your fine. If you ever get to the stage where you want to protect and licence your applications then have a look at ioncube but for now just have a read of the gnu site and see if you find anything that suits your needs.

DanDaBeginner Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 thanks ToonMariner . so meaning, for example is, all I just need to do is choose among this license that I think will be best suit for my classes, then include it (commented inside the class) on my classes stating that this class is under GPU.. thats it?

ToonMariner Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 you should display the lincence on download of your code. have the licence as a page on your site and simply put in your comments the url to the licence that applies to your code....
