Ok guys! This is rather complicated. Lets say I have a computer, a
switch (think of it as a router which can be configured by its own IP
address) and projector. If the computer is connected to the switch and
then to the projector, and we can use the interface by opening up a
browser and putting the IP address(just like a router setup) for the
switch to control the projector (on/off). Now I want to use/make a
software to manipulate the interface or the router control to turn on/off
the projector with a predefined logic (say, it will turn of whenever I
shutdown the computer). It will send the switch thru its control to send
the projector to do a certain task (on/off). Now I want to know if there
is anyway you can do it. I am thinking maybe a macro program or
independent software which is automated and independent of user control.
This has been presented to me by a university to come up with a solution
(I am not a student and this is not my homework so please take it
seriously). I am asking you guys.I took it as a challenge you should too.
If you can help please respond quickly
I know its not a eclipse related
problem but it software related thats why I am asking you..

This is not Eclipse related but it is extremely simple. Use curl to send
whatever to the projector. If you want it to shut down when you turn
off your computer, put it in a shut down script.
