We have an app that monitors a folder for file drop and need to initiate a virus scan before using any incoming files.
This needs to be a part of the Delphi app and the file must pass the Virus Scan otherwise we delete the file.
I know that there are command shell options available, however this must be a direct API call to a registered AV engine installed on the PC.
We have looked at the MSOffice AntiVirus API but that only seems to be for developers wanting to make scanning apps that are triggered by hosting apps. We need the opposite.
Any suggestions on a Virus Scanning Engine and API would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
