Can I use the i386 code in a GPL project?
07/01/14 07:46 AM


I was looking at MESS, and it has quite an interesting and cool i386 software core. However there isn't any explicit license set. i386.c just contains:

/*
2 Intel 386 emulator
3
4 Written by Ville Linde
5
6 Currently supports:
7 Intel 386
8 Intel 486
9 Intel Pentium
10 Cyrix MediaGX
11 Intel Pentium MMX
12 Intel Pentium Pro
13 Intel Pentium II
14 Intel Pentium III
15 Intel Pentium 4
16 */

I've tried to contact Ville Linde on here but I didn't get any reply... Is there any other way to pass a message to find out if I can use this in another project?

I wanted to use it for work based stuff so I know it violates the general MAME/MESS license where I can't use it for any commercial operation, but at the same time I didnt' want to alter dosbox from C++ into C for it's CPU.

Sorry if it's all weird.
