Apr 10, 2015 at 2:34 | comment | added | Ross Patterson | @PhilipKendall Bison's generated code is not GPLed, however its included code is GPLed. Bison is the canonical example of a program that generates GPLed output. | |
Apr 5, 2015 at 6:52 | comment | added | user53141 | According the the GPL FAQ Bison does this because it copies code to the output, which would otherwise be GPL. So it's a special case they've allowed for. | |
Apr 5, 2015 at 5:51 | comment | added | Philip Kendall | Although it is worth noting that Bison, one of the most common code generating GPL programs, specifically makes its generated code not subject to the GPL. | |
