Hi
I wrote a program that computes a car’s fuel economy while driving. My program uses flow sensors that are interfaced with the K8055 and it gets the speed from a GPS receiver.
I modified the source file K0555_C.cpp and incorporated it into my program. I left the Velleman header in it but also added my own. It also uses the two Velleman DLLs.
I’d like to publish my program as open source under the GPL3v3 license.
Am I allowed to publish the project with the DLLs and the modified Visual Studio project and the modified K8055_C.cpp source?
Thanks
You can, if you place the Velleman header is in its original state in your source code.
Maybe you can publish a link here to your project, could be interesting for other users?
Thanks very much.
Here is the link to the project.
sourceforge.net/projects/flowswot/
I left the Velleman header in the C++ sources intact.
I’m still struggling with CVS, it will be a few days (weeks?) before the sources are on sourceforge. For now, only the exe files are available.
Can/should I include the original Velleman DLLs, executables and installer in my release ZIP file as well?
The K8055 dll’s (version 2 and 3) don’t need any runtime libraries so only the dll that you use in your project is necessary to let your program work.
By the way, nice project. Looking forward to see the source and schematics.
The sources have been on sourceforge.net/projects/flowswot/ for some weeks now.
There are no schematics. It’s just a verbal description in the readme file in the release.
I put the K055_C.dll into the latest release ZIP file V0.1.3. Is that OK?
