The following set of functions provides an interface for loading
the virus database: |
d8f8e62a |
<PRE> |
96e05490 |
const char *cl_retdbdir(void);
int cl_load(const char *path, struct cl_engine **engine,
unsigned int *signo, unsigned int options); |
d8f8e62a |
</PRE> |
96e05490 |
<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
directory (if <code>path</code> points to a directory). The second argument
is used for passing in the engine structure which should be previously
initialized with NULL. A number of loaded signatures will be <SPAN CLASS="textbf">added</SPAN> |
ee93a07e |
to <code>signo</code> <A NAME="tex2html20"
HREF="footnode.html#foot313"><SUP><SPAN CLASS="arabic">8</SPAN></SUP></A>. The last argument can pass the following flags: |
96e05490 |
<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_CVDNOTMP</SPAN>
<BR>
Load CVD files directly without unpacking them into a temporary
directory.
</LI>
</UL>
<code>cl_load</code> returns 0 (<code>CL_SUCCESS</code>) on success and a negative
value on failure. |
