LGPL requirements for Web Start application

Post by converge » Sun Oct 27, 2013 4:19 pm

In a Web Start application using JFreeChart, it's not possible for the user to "swap out" the JFreeChart JAR with their own version. Because of this, how does a Web Start application comply with the LGPL?

If the Web Start application includes 1) "prominent" notice that the JFreeChart library is being used 2) a copy of the LGPL license 3) the JFreeChart source code (perhaps in a separate but required "support" installation), is this enough to comply with the license?
