# Description of Changes ### What was changed - An **automated license check** was integrated into the CI/CD workflow (`build.yml` and `licenses-update.yml`). - A new file, `allowed-licenses.json`, was added to explicitly define the permitted licenses. - The **Gradle build process** was updated to run `checkLicense` and detect any non-compliant licenses. ### Why the change was made - **Improved license compliance** to ensure only compatible licenses are used. - **Automated license validation** within the CI/CD workflow to detect potential incompatibilities early. - **Legal risk mitigation** by excluding problematic licenses like **GPL-2.0 (without Classpath Exception)**. ### Any challenges encountered - The **allowed license list had to be manually curated** to ensure all relevant open-source libraries were covered. - Some dependencies use **slightly different license names** (e.g., `"Apache License, Version 2.0"` vs. `"Apache-2.0"`), which needed to be handled in the validation process. --- ## Checklist ### General - [x] I have read the [Contribution Guidelines](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) - [x] I have read the [Stirling-PDF Developer Guide](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/blob/main/DeveloperGuide.md) (if applicable) - [x] I have read the [How to add new languages to Stirling-PDF](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/blob/main/HowToAddNewLanguage.md) (if applicable) - [x] I have performed a self-review of my own code - [x] My changes generate no new warnings ### Documentation - [x] I have updated relevant docs on [Stirling-PDF's doc repo](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-Tools.github.io/blob/main/docs/) (if functionality has heavily changed) - [ ] I have read the section [Add New Translation Tags](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/blob/main/HowToAddNewLanguage.md#add-new-translation-tags) (for new translation tags only) ### UI Changes (if applicable) - [ ] Screenshots or videos demonstrating the UI changes are attached (e.g., as comments or direct attachments in the PR) ### Testing (if applicable) - [x] I have tested my changes locally.
