libclamav.dll & VB6

Hi,

I've created a little program in VB6 for file scanner using the ClamD TCP/IP
daemon on 3310 port.

My questions are:

1 - It's possible to use libclamav.dll in a VB6 App?
2 - If is possible, how to declare and use the libclamav.dll in a .bas
module?
3 - There are a small samples code for this?

I would something like this:

Declare Function cl_scanfile Lib "libclamav.dll" ....

I've found the clamav.h file, but I've not experience in C++ and C++ code
convertion in VB6.

Thanks.... for all

A. Di Nardo

No. libclamav.dll uses __cdecl. VB can only call stdcall dlls. You would
need at least a proxying dll.
The datatypes would probably be hard to mimic. many structures. Although
perhaps the proxying dll
could allocate it. Which functions did you want to use?

You need to be aware that ClamAV is written in C not in C++.
