It is possible.
The following C # code can be compiled into a .exe
file, and it does: Forever (1), wait sixty seconds (2), make a request on a PHP page (3) and pick up what the page prints for to process (4).
public static void Main( string[] args )
{
int dados = 0;
while ( true ) // 1
{
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep( TimeSpan.FromSeconds( 60 ) ); // 2
dados++;
using ( var client = new System.Net.WebClient() )
{
var retorno = client.DownloadString( "http://servidor.url/pagina.php?dado=" + dados ); // 3
Console.WriteLine( retorno ); // 4
}
}
}
You need to download an IDE from C # programming or the equivalent in another language.
You can also an .exe from a PHP , but it is not such a common solution.
