Hello,

I’m trying to understand the licensing for Build Wrapper. Does it fall under the same license as SonarScanner(LGPL-3.0 License), or have a different licensing model?

Any clarification would be appreciated!

Thanks,  
Aravind

Hi Aravind,

The build wrapper is distributed with the server to enable C, C++, and Objective-C analysis. The license is commercial.
