Displaying Windows Task Scheduler Tasks with PHP
Excellent writeup of a PHP app that interfaces with the Windows Task Scheduler. I’m going to have to double check on his use of the Task Service object. I thought it was only COM accessible in Task Scheduler 2.0 (the new version, that comes with Vista or Windows 7, or Server 2008). I thought in XP (which included the Task Scheduler 1.0 – the schtasks.exe or the good old Scheduled Task’s folder) that either the Task Service COM interface had to be accessed with a lower level language, or possibly the Scheduled Task’s accessible via WMI (but not through the schtask folder interface). Its possible thats the task scheduler this code uses for access. If thats the reality, then you may not see all the tasks you may have entered using the GUI interface, using this tool. More on that later.
