поясните за Apache License 2.0
You should not! 
лицензию или код под этой лицензией?
код под лицензией Apache 2.0 хочу включить в закрытое приложение
а ты её читал, или хотя бы как Рабинович пел слушал?
читал, но кое-что нифига не понял, там что-то про совместимость с GPLv3 во 2 версии дописали и в результате у меня возникли подозрения, что нельзя использовать в closed-source
еще я видел либу ( agent++ 4.0 которая была заявлена как лицензированная под Apache Licence 2.0, а внутре у нея были отдельные файлы, в хедерах у которых указана GPLv2.
это укрепило мои подозрения.
хотя может просто накосячили те, кто либу делал.

там что-то про совместимость с GPLv3 во 2 версии дописалиизначальный код можно перелицензировать по gpl, а на лицензию производных продуктов ограничений нет (она может быть и несовместимой с gpl).
а как же тогда получилось, что в либе, которая вроде как Apache Licence 2.0 есть запчасти под GNU GPLv2?
такого вроде быть не должно, иначе можно было бы написать hello world, приинклюдить kernel линукса и отлицензировать результат как Apache Licence 2.0
а потом результат закрыть и юзать как захочется.

Как будто все в этом мире делают все `как надо'. Напиши авторам этой либы, они должны лучше знать как так получилось.
код под лицензией Apache 2.0 хочу включить в закрытое приложениеМожно, если, например, в своём проприетарном приложении ты линкуешь библиотеку, код которой залицензирован под Apache 2.0. С GPLv2 так не прокатит в общем случае.
еще я видел либу ( agent++ 4.0 которая была заявлена как лицензированная под Apache Licence 2.0, а внутре у нея были отдельные файлы, в хедерах у которых указана GPLv2.Закачал agent++-4.0.1, никаких хедеров там под GPLv2 не увидел.

Теперь увидел. 5 хедеров и 4 плюсовых файла под двумя лицензиями — GPLv2+ и Apache 2.0. Если двойное лицензирование исходников было сделано должным образом, то всё в порядке, весь проект можно рассматривать как лицензированный Apache 2.0, если же авторы тупо использовали кусок кода, лицензированного под GPLv2+, то, во-первых, это их косяк, во-вторых, юридически корректно считать, что проект под лицензией GPLv3.
я вот думаю, не воспользовались ли авторы тем, что это не просто GPL код, а именно часть кода стандартной библиотеки C++, для которой есть специальное исключение, позволяющее использовать ее в closed-source.
Однако даже если это так, я не уверен, что выдёргивание и модификация части кода с включением результата в не-GPL проект (в пределе - в closed-source) разрешено данным исключением.
Однако даже если это так, я не уверен, что выдёргивание и модификация части кода с включением результата в не-GPL проект (в пределе - в closed-source) разрешено данным исключением.
юридически корректно считать, что проект под лицензией GPLv3.а почему именно v3?
а почему именно v3?Потому что
The Free Software Foundation considers the Apache License, Version 2.0 to be a free software license, compatible with version 3 of the GPL.
…
Apache 2 software can therefore be included in GPLv3 projects, because the GPLv3 license accepts our software into GPLv3 works. However, GPLv3 software cannot be included in Apache projects. The licenses are incompatible in one direction only, and it is a result of ASF's licensing philosophy and the GPLv3 authors' interpretation of copyright law.
то есть объединение кода под недвойными лицензиями GPLv2+ и Apache License 2.0 даёт результирующую лицензию GPLv3, так как GPLv2 и Apache License 2.0 несовместимы.
Despite our best efforts, the FSF has never considered the Apache License to be compatible with GPL version 2, citing the patent termination and indemnification provisions as restrictions not present in the older GPL license.http://www.apache.org/licenses/GPL-compatibility.html
я вот думаю, не воспользовались ли авторы тем, что это не просто GPL код, а именно часть кода стандартной библиотеки C++, для которой есть специальное исключение, позволяющее использовать ее в closed-source.Ну это всё же отдельная лицензия, GPLvX with GCC Runtime Library Exception vY, в твоём проекте такого не наблюдается, но это опять возможно косяк авторов.
Вот приятный ресурс, где просто объясняется, для чего какая лицензия.
