Xypon, What is the license of GLPK Java utility JAR file?

The jar file is not linked to native solver, right? It is just
interface to the solver.

Here my take on this issue.

############

GLPK native solver is GPL.

C programs + GPLK (GPL) solver = Your Application (GPL).

If  GLPK Java utility JAR file is:

1. GLPK Java Jar (LGPL) + GPLK (GPL) solver + your code = Your app is
OK to be released as LGPL /MIT / BSD / ( commercial).


2. GLPK Java Jar (GPL) + GPLK (GPL) solver + your code = GPL.

It is not OK to distribute your application without releasing all the
source code (GPL).
