Hi Muhammad,
My apologies for the confusion. The win32/README.md file could use some extra
information. I am working on that now.
The only the external libraries you need to provide for ClamAV 0.101 and prior
are OpenSSL. For 0.102, which will be released momentarily, the number of
required external libraries has grown.
This is the list of externally built libraries required by ClamAV on Windows:
- bzip2
- libcurl
- json-c
- libxml2
- openssl
- pcre2
- pthread-win32
- zlib
The libcurl and json-c dependencies are new, but the others used to be code
that had been copied into our clamav-devel repository. We removed these from
our code base.
The libcurl dependency may be configured a variety of ways. We choose to build
libcurl with the following dependencies: libssh2, nghttp2, openssl, and zlib.
nghttp2 in turn may depend on libxml2, zlib, and openssl. openssh2 may also
depend on openssl and zlib. openssl itself also may depend on zlib.
As you can see, the build process for the dependencies is non-trivial, which is
why we've created a dependency management tool (Mussels) to make that process
easier. Mussels is functional now on Windows and on macOS, but because we're
hopeful that developers will find it useful to build other projects, we still
wish to make a few changes before we'll be ready for the public to start using
it.
I hope that we'll be able to make Mussels available within a couple of weeks.
In the meantime, building of the library dependencies on Windows will have to
be done manually, or using some other dependency management tool.
Regards,
Micah
