In reading the LGPL for pthreads-win32 I find I am confused. My application=
 is company proprietary and one reading says that an application that "uses=
 the library" does not itself fall under the LGPL. Another reading says tha=
t it does (mainly because it uses pthread.h and semaphore.h).

Can I link to pthreads-win32 in my application without the license requirin=
g that I provide my source or object code to my customers?

Is there anything that my legal department would accept that would confirm =
this?

Thanks, Jay
