8.2. The Run-Time License

The run-time system and other run-time code are supplied on a license that follows the General Public License, but which explicitly allows you to use the source or object code in your application software without any of the GPL terms and conditions flowing down.

As a special exception, if other files instantiate generics from this unit, or you link this unit with other files to produce an executable, this unit does not by itself cause the resulting executable to be covered by the GNU General Public License. This exception does not however invalidate any other reasons why the executable file might be covered by the GNU Public License.

The run-time license is supplied free of charge, and there are no recurring costs associated with using the run-time system.
