Exception type Condition

ObjectDisposedException

Example

The following example creates metadata for an item, sets the change unit version for each change unit in the item, and sets the custom field values for the index fields of the item.

private ItemMetadata CreateContactMetadata(Contact contact, SyncId itemId, SyncVersion creationVersion,
    SyncVersion changeVersion)
{
    // Create the item by using the metadata storage service.
    ItemMetadata itemMeta = _ContactReplicaMetadata.CreateItemMetadata(itemId, creationVersion);

    // Set the version information for each change unit.
    itemMeta.SetChangeUnitVersion(new SyncId((byte)Contact.ChangeUnitFields.NameCU), changeVersion);
    itemMeta.SetChangeUnitVersion(new SyncId((byte)Contact.ChangeUnitFields.PhoneCU), changeVersion);
    itemMeta.SetChangeUnitVersion(new SyncId((byte)Contact.ChangeUnitFields.AddressCU), changeVersion);
    itemMeta.SetChangeUnitVersion(new SyncId((byte)Contact.ChangeUnitFields.BirthdateCU), changeVersion);

    // A unique index is defined for the combination of first name, last name, and phone number in order
    // to map between the item ID and the contact.
    // Set the field values for the index fields.
    itemMeta.SetCustomField(FirstNameField, contact.FirstName);
    itemMeta.SetCustomField(LastNameField, contact.LastName);
    itemMeta.SetCustomField(PhoneNumberField, contact.PhoneNumber);

    return itemMeta;
}
