Software::License::LGPL_3_0::or_later - LGPLv3.0+ license for Software::License infrastructure
Version v0.10.2, released on 2016-10-10 22:17 UTC.
"Software-License-OrLaterPack" (or just "OrLaterPack" for brevity) is an add-on for "Software-License", a set of licenses with "or later" clause (like "GPL_3::or_later"). It allows Perl developers (who use "Dist-Zilla") to release their work under the terms of a License version N or (at user option) any later version.
This is "Software::License::LGPL_3_0::or_later" module documentation. Read this if you are going to hack or extend the module, or use the module directly.
If you want to use GNU license with "or later" clause read the user manual. General topics like getting source, building, installing, bug reporting and some others are covered in the README file.
my $lic = Software::License::LGPL_3_0::or_later->new( {
holder => 'John Doe',
year => '2010',
program => 'Assa'
} );
$lic->_abbr; # 'LGPL'
$lic->abbr; # 'LGPLv3.0+'
$lic->_name; # 'GNU Lesser General Public License'
$lic->name; # 'The GNU Lesser General Public License version 3.0 or later'
$lic->notice;
# Copyright statement and
# standard GNU 3-paragraph license notice.
$lic->notice( 'short' );
# Copyright statement, license name and
# two sentences about free software and warranties.
# Xand other methods inherited from Software::License::LGPL_3_0

"Software::License::LGPL_3_0::or_later" is a subclass of "Software::License::LGPL_3_0". It overrides few parent methods and introduces few own methods.
See documentation on Software::License for a general description of the class interface.
Bare abbreviated license name, "LGPL".
Note: this attribute is not inherited from the base class.
Abbreviated license name: concatenated bare abbreviated license name, 'v' character, and license version (with trailing plus sign).
Note: this attribute is not inherited from the base class.
A reference to base license object, i. e. license without "or later" clause.
Note: this attribute is not inherited from the base class.
Bare name of the license, which is also bare name of the base license, because it does include neither definitive article ("The"), nor license version nor "or later" clause: "GNU Lesser General Public License".
Note: this attribute is not inherited from the base class.
This attribute meets "Software::License" specification: returned name starts with definitive capitalized article ("The"). Returned name also includes the base license version (like other "Software::License" classes do) (without trailing plus sign) and "or later" clause.
A program name as specified by the "program" option in constructor, or the "Program" option in constructor, or "this program". This form of program name is intended to be used in the middle of sentence.
Note: this attribute is not inherited from the base class.
A program name as specified by the "Program" option in constructor, or the "program" option in constructor, or "This program". This form of program name is intended to be used in the beginning of sentence.
Note: this attribute is not inherited from the base class.
License version (base license version with appended plus sign to denote "or later" clause).
This method overrides Software::License's "notice". Differences are:
The method can be called with 'short' argument to get short version of notice. Short version includes: copyright statement, license name, and two sentences about free software and warranties. Note: This is experimental feature.
