# CHANGELOG:
# 2006-07-15 v0.1.1 AN: - released version
# 2007-10-09 v0.2.0 PL: - fixed error with deprecated string exceptions
#			- added optional timeout to sockets to avoid blocking 
#			  operations
# 2010-07-11 v0.2.1 AN: - change all raise exception (was deprecated), license 
#						  change to LGPL
# 2010-07-12 v0.2.2 TK: - PEP8 compliance
#						  isolating send and receive functions
# 2012-11-20 v0.3.0 AN: - change API to class model
#                       - using INSTREAM scan method instead of the deprecated STREAM
#                       - added MULTISCAN method
#                       - STATS now return full data on multiline
#                   TK: - changes to API to make it more consistent
# 2012-11-20 v0.3.1 AN: - typo change (Connextion to Connexion)
#                       - Fixed Issue 3: scan_stream: AssertionError
# 2013-04-20 v0.3.2 TT/AN: - improving encoding support for non latin filenames
#                   TKL:   - When pyclamd calls _recv_response, it appears to expect
#                            that it will only get one result at a time. This is not
#                            always the case: it may get multiple results separated
#                            by newlines.
#                          - Typos corrected with pyflakes
#                          - Adding a compatibility layer for the most important
#                            functions in the 0.2 API - init_*_socket, scan_file,
#                            contscan_file, multiscan_file, and version.
# 2013-04-21 v0.3.3 AN: - ClamdUnixSocket is now able to get unix socket name
#                         from /etc/clamav/clamd.conf
# 2013-11-16 v0.3.4 JB/AN: - Nasty encoding bug in scan_stream
# 2014-06-22 v0.3.6 JS/AN: - correction in assert for filename (change to basestring)
# 2014-06-23 v0.3.7 AN: - correction in README.txt and example.py
#                       - adding pyclamd.ClamdAgnostic()
# 2014-07-06 v0.3.8 AN: - License clarification (use of LGPLv3+)
# 2014-07-06 v0.3.9 SK/AN: - Bug correction + setup.py improvment for building
# 2014-07-06 v0.3.10 SK/AN: - Bug correction with python3 bytes stream
# 2015-03-14 v0.3.14 AN : - Bug correction for clamd.conf default path
# 2015-06-04 v0.3.15 AN : - optimization in scan_stream
# 2015-10-21 v0.3.16 JMS : - avoid EICAR detection in py3 pyc file
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# TODO:
# - improve tests for Win32 platform (avoid to write EICAR file to disk, or
#   protect it somehow from on-access AV, inside a ZIP/GZip archive isn't enough)
# - use SESSION/END commands to launch several scans in one session
#   (for example provide session mode in a Clamd class)
# - add support for RAWSCAN commands ?
# ? Maybe use os.abspath to ensure scan_file uses absolute paths for files
