Need a C++ component which gets a list of tasks from a mysql database,



the "task" consists of:

function to call, parameters, and scheduled times in cron format



DATABASE TABLE - tasks

var char function

var char args

var char scheduledtime



scheduled time is in the format (seconds minutes hours days weeks months)

30 0 0 0 0 = every 30 seconds

0 5 0 0 0 0 = every 5 minutes

0 1 0 0 0 0 = every 1 minute

0 1 1 0 0 0 = every 1 hour 1 minute

0 1 1 2 0 0 = every 2 days, 1 hour, 1 minute



When the object is created, it gets a list of tasks from the database, and executes the function at the specified time with the args specified.



This object should start a boost thread which sleeps until it is time to execute the next function. The function is launched in a new thread, then the main scheduling thread goes back to sleep.



This application should come with a test application which uses the component.



It should create a new instance of the object, retrieve the tasks from a sample database and run them at the scheduled times.
