[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-125?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13580837#comment-13580837 ]
Robert Burrell Donkin commented on RAT-125:
-------------------------------------------
Hi Ate
Thanks for the patch and apologies again for being so slow in getting to this.
Looks like the right approach to me
Unless anyone jumps in, I'll take a look at applying this patch and committing the results...

> While checking on an ASL20 license header itself is supported by Apache Rat (duh), properly checking an applied ASL20 license (for usage *outside* the ASF) isn't supported yet.
> I've created an AppliedApacheSoftwareLicense20 check which does check this, using the http://apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html#apply template as template (duh).
> This header matcher itself extends a more generic CopyrightHeader matcher, which only takes care of the copyright header line validation, using a regex pattern + configurable copyright owner.
> As an example the following configuration:
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.rat</groupId>
> <artifactId>apache-rat-plugin</artifactId>
> <version>0.9-SNAPSHOT</version>
> <configuration>
> <licenses>
> <license implementation="org.apache.rat.analysis.license.AppliedApacheSoftwareLicense20">
> <copyrightOwner>FooBar \(www\.foobar\.com\)</copyrightOwner>
> </license>
> </licenses>
> </configuration>
> </plugin>
>
> will properly match a license header like:
> Copyright 2012 FooBar (www.foobar.com)
> Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License");

>
> I'll attach a patch with the two header matchers + unit tests shortly.
