Hi,

I will be developing an application in Qt, using Qt under the LGPL license. Can I sell it to a client, without providing the source code for it?

+6  A: 

LGPL allows you to link to the code without releasing your source, so yes, you can do it.

Awesome, you have really helped a lot, you don't know that, just saved me from licensing visual studio, which I really didn't like in the first place, but its cheaper than the Qt commercial license.Thanks again!

Glad that this helped. Well, it's the main difference between GPL and LGPL: LGPL libraries can be used anywhere, including proprietary software, while GPL can't.
