Re: Commercial Java program bundled with 'free' database?

i know some commerical programs like sam party dj
http://www.spacialaudio.com/products/sampartydj/ use firebird as their
database engine http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
you can use sql server 2005 express too but you have to get permission
from microsoft:
embedding:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnsse/html/emsqlexcustapp.asp
licensing:
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/editions/express/redistregister.mspx

hope this helps

Hi! I am writing a program for a client and I'm using several database
files that I created with MySQL (inventory, customer, etc). I'm not
sure if I can freely bundle these database files with my program when I
distribute it to my customer so I have a question:

Does there exist something like MySQL that I can use to create files
with and distribute with programs that I write without having to pay
licensing fees?

Thanks, all!
