Bug #5635
closedbuild-area should have a licenses.txt
0%
Description
To be consistent, it seems to me build-area should have a licenses.txt listing the licenses for its included libraries in the style of other modules, which keep a module-info/licenses.txt file in a particular format.

Agreed. I put the license files in lib/ and in the launch4j directories
because I find it better to put the license files adjacent to the licensed code.
In Ptolemy, we have a list of classes in ptolemy.actor.gui.GenerateCopyrights
and if those classes are present, then a HTML version of the license file
is made available.

However, the above are out of scope for this bug.
To close this bug, we need to identify each licensed product in build-area
and update licenses.txt with that information.

I checked in the licenses.txt with the library licenses for build-area module at version 30078.
Close the bug.
