This pragma automatically tells windows compiler which library you need 
to link to.

You always need a library if you're linking to the DLL, otherwise the linker 
doesn't know which symbols are available, or their types (if using C++ 
mangling)

No, you won't have it twice. the .lib file is only used during the linking 
process. It doesn't add anything to your exe.

Think of it as a symbol table, not a static link.
