Open Source licensing on libraries & DLL's -


most of know main purpose of open source libraries' licensing distribute source code along application.

well - commercially still applies - regardless if it's gpl or lgpl. not know extremely it's tweaks or rules - that's why i'm asking here.

however - wish keep code closed source. question is:

if use external open source library (which i'll gladly release code)

&

it import functions closed source dll - (definitions only)

does mean i'm allowed not distribute dll's code?

you use gnu's lgpl.

from wikipedia:

the gnu lesser general public license or lgpl (formerly gnu library general public license) free software license published free software foundation (fsf). lgpl allows developers , companies use , integrate lgpl software own (even proprietary) software without being required (by terms of strong copyleft) release source code of own software-parts.

(emphasis mine).

and here link gnu lgpl official page.
