QNX® Momentics® Development Suite & Neutrino® RTOS License Guide (Version 6.3.0 Service Pack 2)

Introduction

This Guide describes the contents and corresponding licensing attributes of version 6.3.0 Service Pack 2 of the QNX Momentics Development Suite tools (Standard Edition and Professional Edition), as well as the corresponding Neutrino Real Time Operating System (collectively, the "Software").

Most of the Software is licensed to you under version "meula1_05b" of the QNX Software System End User License Agreement ("QSS EULA"), a copy of which was provided with the Software and which has also published at http://licensing.qnx.com/published/eula/meula1_05b.html.* However, like all other operating system technology providers in the embedded marketplace, QSS includes certain third party software contributions in its products. Examples include our Eclipse-based Integrated Development Environment, our GNU-based compiler, linker & debugger tools, our NetBSD based TCP/IP stack, various standard development and runtime utilities, and a host of drivers that incorporate third party code supplied by the vendors of the hardware for which they were written.

This Guide has been prepared in order to present to you in a convenient manner all of the licensing considerations that relate to third party interests in QNX products. The Guide breaks down QNX product offerings into their constituent technologies, providing a useful product overview. A series of columns are used to link the applicable attributes to the relevant components. The contents of each column are further defined below. Specific export / import information is provided at the end of this Guide.

The Guide is broken down into three main sections: QNX Momentics Development Tools, QNX Neutrino Runtime Components and QNX Neutrino BSPs & Drivers. The QNX Momentics Development Tools represent the components that are typically used in-house by QNX customers within their embedded device development teams. The QNX Neutrino Runtime Components represent a comprehensive list of the QNX technologies available to those teams for use in their final products. Your developers will select a subset of these to ship in the devices they develop. QNX Neutrino BSPs and Drivers consist primarily of runtime components, but they have been listed separately from the Neutrino Runtime Component section in order to eliminate repetition and to isolate the sections of this document that are likely to change (i.e., as additional BSPs and drivers are added).

You will find that many of the described line items have a corresponding list of directories. These indicate the origin of source code materials used to build the component. They don't include all of the header files and libraries used in compiling and linking (either by QSS in delivering the binaries, or by you in creating your own target system software), or all of the related executables (e.g., utilities). These are included in other sections of this Guide (e.g., Platform Core).

Runtime licensing is provided under a separate agreement (e.g., a Runtime License Agreement or an OEM License Agreement), as further described in the QSS EULA. These agreements provide license rights to redistribute "Runtime Components" (as defined in the QSS EULA). Runtime components are described in the QNX Neutrino Runtime Components and QNX Neutrino BSP & Driver portions of this document. Runtime Components of Driver Development Kits and Technology Development Kits generally do not bear additional royalties when distributed for use in association with a corresponding version of QNX. See the Licenses column for details on particular products.

Third party license terms are a fact of life in any modern embedded development project. When adopting QNX tools or runtime components your developers can review this License Guide to determine any applicable license terms or special considerations that apply to the QNX products they plan to use. To identify the subset of relevant license terms for a particular configuration of runtime components in their target device, they just gather the applicable references in the License(s) column for the applicable technologies they have adopted.

Interpretation of Column References

The information provided in any row of a product description applies to all of its constituent components, unless otherwise expressly stated.

Column	Content Description
SE	Indicates the contents of the Standard Edition version of the QNX Momentics Development Suite product. "S" means "standard", "B" means "bundled with", "O" means "optional", and "NA" means "not available".
PE	Indicates the contents of the Professional Edition version of the QNX Momentics Development Suite product. "S" means "standard", "B" means "bundled with", "O" means "optional", and "NA" means "not available".
Code	Indicates the form of software code provided. References to "Source" indicate that "source code is included", rather than "comprehensive source code for every elements of the product is included". "Object" means binaries in object or executable form.
Type	Indicates the Type I, Type II and Type III Software ratings, as defined in the QSS EULA.
Support	Indicates the level of support provided for the referenced products. "Full" means full support by QSS under its Standard and Priority Support Plans. "Limited" means there limits are imposed on QSS's support ("Limited (Source)" means the limits relate to support of source code and "Limited (3rd Party)" means the limits relate to QSS reliance on third parties for support). "Unsup" means QSS does not provide support for the referenced component(s).
Licenses	Indicates the end user license terms, including any flow-through terms referenced in the consolidated Third Party License Terms Guide (version 1_05b) ("TPLTG") which is published at http://licensing.qnx.com/published/eula/TPLTG1_05b.html.*
