jibba Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 I saw that utorrent uses Azureus features (sourcecode?).Azureus is under the GNU Licence. If utorrent uses sourcecode from Azureus/anyother GPL Tool it breaks the copyrights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Yes, it can definitely use Java sourcecode in a C++ program.No, it's written from scratch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonGato Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Using similar features doesn't mean using sourcecode.Azureus is made in Java and µTorrent in C++ so I doubt he used much code if any. EDIT: damn! resident admin was faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Linux has a file browser, that means they stole source code from Windows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
