I want to write a scheduler for this code. Could you please guide me

rmuch commented 8 years ago

How you decide to schedule scans is entirely your choice - the library simply provides functions for you to initialize the ClamAV engine and scan a file or directory for viruses from within your own application.

If you're developing on Windows, the simplest way would be to use a scheduled task to invoke your scanning tool; on a Unix-like platform, you could use a cron job.

If you're writing a background service, one of many ways is to use a System.Threading.Timer as explained here.
