Scheduler, Part 1: The overview

So I've been coding like a daemon ;) and I've just about finished this little scheduler application.
While I could have done it allot faster and simpler, this version of the application is a bit more robust. In other words if the average Joe was to use it, they shouldn't be able to break it.


It's still a fairly simple program though, its primary task is to take applications you give it, couple them with a date and a time and then once that date/time is reached it executes the given application.

I initially started writing this so that I could execute my Age of Conan updater after 01:00 in the morning, since its updates were HUGE and the cost of my bandwidth comes done between 01:00 and 08:00 in the morning. Yes I am aware that windows have a native scheduler, but that damned thing kept crashing AoC on start-up and I didn't feel like installing a 3rd party program so I wrote one myself.

In any case, Part 2 will illustrate the design of this application and how it works.
Part 3 will the run through some code snippets and just show how everything fits together.

Hope someone can make use of this, Part 3 will also include a link from where the application may be downloaded.
