SqlCeReplication.ReinitializeSubscription Method
Marks a subscription for reinitialization. After calling this method, an application must call the Synchronize method to download the latest snapshot of the publication to the device.
Namespace: System.Data.SqlServerCe
Assembly: System.Data.SqlServerCe (in system.data.sqlserverce.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Sub ReinitializeSubscription ( _
uploadBeforeReinitialize As Boolean _
)
public void ReinitializeSubscription (
bool uploadBeforeReinitialize
)
public:
void ReinitializeSubscription (
bool uploadBeforeReinitialize
)
public void ReinitializeSubscription (
boolean uploadBeforeReinitialize
)
public function ReinitializeSubscription (
uploadBeforeReinitialize : boolean
)
Parameters
- uploadBeforeReinitialize
If True, the changes in the subscription database are uploaded to the Publisher before the snapshot is applied at the Subscriber. The default is False.
Remarks
A flag is marked in the SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP1 subscription system table to signify that during the next synchronization, the subscription should be reinitialized. After calling the ReinitializeSubscription method, the application must call the Synchronize method to delete the existing replica and download a new replica of the publication to the Windows Mobile-based device.
Example
Dim repl As SqlCeReplication = Nothing
Try
' Create SqlCeReplication instance
'
'NOTE: when possible, prompt users to enter security
'credentials at runtime. If you store credentials in a file,
'you must secure the file to prevent unauthorized access.
'
repl = New SqlCeReplication()
repl.InternetUrl = "https://www.adventure-works.com/sqlmobile/sqlcesa35.dll"
repl.InternetLogin = "MyInternetLogin"
repl.InternetPassword = "<enterStrongPassword>"
repl.Publisher = "MyPublisher"
repl.PublisherDatabase = "MyPublisherDatabase"
repl.PublisherLogin = "MyPublisherLogin"
repl.PublisherPassword = "<enterStrongPassword>"
repl.Publication = "MyPublication"
repl.Subscriber = "MySubscriber"
repl.SubscriberConnectionString = "Data Source=MyDatabase.sdf"
' Mark the subscription for reinitialization with Upload first
'
repl.ReinitializeSubscription(True)
' Synchronize to the SQL Server to populate the Subscription
'
repl.Synchronize()
Catch
' Handle errors here
Finally
' Dispose the repl object
'
repl.Dispose()
End Try
SqlCeReplication repl = null;
