I can just say what I think. From what I know you can use Apache licensed code in your commercial project without any problem and without distributing source code, just the Apache license. And you do need to give a proper attribution to the original project/library. I suggest that you research more into this in more details. The above short guide is a quick and "dirty" guide how to include Apache 2.0 licensed code in a commercial project. If there are some nuances that you want to address, I am afraid you will have to dig deeper into the details unfortunately :)<br>I am not a lawyer, I am a software developer like yourself and I just posted the above as a short summary to reference myself and to give it to others the gist in a short and concise form.

I wan't to use library under Apache 2.0 license in my commercial project, which must be distributed under other license. If I include Apache 2.0 license into my project as it is needed, how to indicate, that this Apache 2.0 license is applyed only to library's part?

This article is mostly about how to use some code (say a library) that has been licensed out by Apache 2.0 license in a commercial product. To license out your code under Apache license, you need to follow licensing procedure, which is basically you have to say explicitly that you license under the Apache 2.0 license (one of the necessary steps would be to include copy of the license, yes), but I encourage you to research more into the finer details.
