How does one find out if there are multiple viruses in a single file?

The problem is to avoid a possibly harmless virus to mask severe infections.

Another problem, for users of older library versions, is how to know if the pointer returned is an array of strings or a single string. Is this the right list to ask this question?

Thank you

Hi all!

There used to be a hack in libclamav, whereby function cli_append_virus() added
the virus name to an array when SCAN_ALL was true.  It was a hack because a
caller argument had different types according to that flag.

The hack was temporary, and it seems to be gone in recent versions.

What is now the behavior if multiple virus are found?  I have an email filter
that can be configured to take different action according to virus names.  How
do I update it?  (Filter actions are "none", "pass", "reject", "drop", in that
order.  A message with multiple viruses gets the rightmost action.)

Thanks for any idea
Ale
