       Chaste Third Party Licences
    </title>

<h1>Third party packages</h1>

<p>
Chaste depends on many third-party packages to provide some of the core functionality.
A full list of these, together with their licences, is given below.
</p>

<p>
In most cases, source code for these packages is not distributed with Chaste
(notable exceptions are triangle, Tetgen and CxxTest).  They must instead be
installed separately.  When using the standalone cardiac executable, statically
linked binaries of some of these libraries are incorporated within the executable.
The 'Used by' column indicates where these libraries are used:
  <dl>
    <dt>Executable:</dt><dd> linked to the standalone cardiac executable, and distributed with it in binary form</dd>
    <dt>Tests:</dt><dd> only required for testing Chaste</dd>
    <dt>Source:</dt><dd> required for building Chaste from source</dd>
    <dt>Cardiac:</dt><dd> only really needed if you're building the cardiac-specific source</dd>
    <dt>Distributed:</dt><dd> source code is distributed with the Chaste source</dd>
    <dt>Optional:</dt><dd> may be used by Chaste if installed, but not essential</dd>
  </dl>
