The following set of functions provides an interface for loading
the virus database: |
| ba4cac37 |
<PRE> |
| e79e504d |
const char *cl_retdbdir(void);
int cl_load(const char *path, struct cl_engine *engine,
unsigned int *signo, unsigned int options); |
| ba4cac37 |
</PRE> |
| e79e504d |
<code>cl_retdbdir()</code> returns the default (hardcoded) path to the directory
with ClamAV databases.
<code>cl_load()</code> loads a single database file or all databases from a
given directory (when <code>path</code> points to a directory). The second
argument is used for passing in the pointer to the engine that should
be previously allocated with <code>cl_engine_new()</code>. A number of loaded
signatures will be <SPAN CLASS="textbf">added</SPAN> to <code>signo</code> <A NAME="tex2html23"
HREF="footnode.html#foot336"><SUP><SPAN CLASS="arabic">10</SPAN></SUP></A>. The last argument can
pass the following flags:
<UL>
<LI><SPAN CLASS="textbf">CL_DB_STDOPT</SPAN>
<BR>
This is an alias for a recommended set of scan options.
</LI>
<LI><SPAN CLASS="textbf">CL_DB_PHISHING</SPAN>
<BR>
Load phishing signatures.
</LI>
<LI><SPAN CLASS="textbf">CL_DB_PHISHING_URLS</SPAN>
<BR>
Initialize the phishing detection module and load .wdb and .pdb files.
</LI>
<LI><SPAN CLASS="textbf">CL_DB_PUA</SPAN>
<BR>
Load signatures for Potentially Unwanted Applications.
</LI>
<LI><SPAN CLASS="textbf">CL_DB_OFFICIAL_ONLY</SPAN>
<BR>
Only load official signatures from digitally signed databases.
</LI>
<LI><SPAN CLASS="textbf">CL_DB_BYTECODE</SPAN>
<BR>
Load bytecode.
</LI>
</UL>
<code>cl_load()</code> returns <code>CL_SUCCESS</code> on success and another code on
failure. |
