LibClamAV
Hello,
I'm new to clam av and I like what I see. I would like to add clam av support to an app I'm developing but would like to understand the libclamav api.

The Api looks simple enough but what I don't understand from the docs is, do I need to deploy the entire clam av client to a system prior to including it with my app? I don't see an api to update the database or a way to reference the clamd.conf file?

Thanks,
Charlie

Re: LibClamAV [ In reply to ]
As I understand it, freshclam simply download cvds based on a DNS entry.
The engine loads the cvds at creation, so if you were to update the cvds,
you would need to destroy and recreate an engine. All you need is libclamav.

Not sure about clamd.conf
