    Description

      The following BCEL source files are CPL licensed:

      src/main/java/org/apache/bcel/classfile/EnclosingMethod.java
      src/main/java/org/apache/bcel/classfile/LocalVariableTypeTable.java

      This is a problem since CPL is classified as a category B license by the ASF.

      These files are originally from the Eclipse AspectJ project.

      http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.aspectj/modules/bcel-builder/src/org/aspectj/apache/bcel/classfile/EnclosingMethod.java?revision=1.1&root=Tools_Project&view=markup

      http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.aspectj/modules/bcel-builder/src/org/aspectj/apache/bcel/classfile/LocalVariableTypeTable.java?revision=1.1&root=Tools_Project&view=markup

      IBM holds the Copyright of the 1.1 version of these files. As an employee of IBM, I am relicensing these files under AL2.

      I've updated the files with the Apache source license header and updated the package names for the BCEL project. I have not made any other changes to the source.

      I'm able to build BCEL with these updated files, but have not performed any further testing.
