I recently downloaded Clamwin from SourceForge.net using git.
$ git clone git://clamwin.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/clamwin/clamav-win32.git

Later i even downloaded binaries for Clamwin from github.
I got the whole source code however I'm unable to start with anything. Are there any step by step tutorials for clam win.

Basically we are going to change the UI as well as some features but Im not sure how do we go approaching this. My programming language is C# and using Visual studio.
Any help would be really appreciated.

One of the ClamWin developers will correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the source code is all there is available, unless the source code is liberally commented. ClamWin is essentially ClamAV with a GUI and a bit of code that is specific to Windows. Perhaps you can get some information re: Clam AV.

Let us know how your project goes.

Thanks GuitarBob. As i said before i have the whole set of Codes.
As prescribed by this link https://oss.netfarm.it/clamav/ i got the whole source code which is around 233mb. Im trying to execute it using Visual Studio.

From there i went upto this link
D:\clamav-win32\contrib\msvc\clamav.sln

But when it opens in visual studio i have a set of 14projects. Im not sure how to approach this. Where is the execution point i mean the main method. Also when i run it i just get a blank screen as command prompt. Is there anything that im missing?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks

Let's let one of the developers address this in a bit. In the meantime, you might do some searching in these forums to see if someone had a similar inquiry in the past.

Yeah im in the research part already. I have gone through lots of documentation and researches. And if i get through any ill surely post it over here.

But i guess someone might be there who has already Decompiled ClamWin as well as ClamAv for the source.
