How do I know which components in the OpenJDK project are under just the GPL, and which are under the GPL + Classpath exception?
Each source file is individually licensed. The key difference is the presence of the sentence: Sun designates this particular file as subject to the “Classpath” exception as provided by Sun in the LICENSE file that accompanied this code. in the “+ Classpath” version. So basically if you see the word “Classpath” in the license header then you know that the exception applies.
