Using tkDNN as a plugin in software with other license. #142

Closed Szamtu closed 3 years ago

Szamtu commented 3 years ago

Good morning,

Is it possible to use tkDNN library (on GPL license) as a plugin in other open source project, as a self plugin?

I'm asking, becouse, I could add a tkDNN plugin to a fork of project, that we sometimes update. The project: PastaPi is under MIT license (as original project Spaghetti forked from).

My idea is to add plugin element called tkDNN_yolo that is linked dynamicly with the tkDNN library. Separate plugin with it's own cmake could be licensed under GPL. (the plugin that can be turned on/off to build with the project). Is such plugin compatybile with tkDNN GPLv2 license?

I think is ok, as far as you keep the license. But honestly... I'm not a lawyer
