IMAExtensibleFileExport.DeliverExportFile Method

Called on an export run to export data from the connector space to a connected data source that requires an intermediate file to process any data source changes.

Namespace: Microsoft.MetadirectoryServices
Assembly: Microsoft.MetadirectoryServicesEx (in Microsoft.MetadirectoryServicesEx.dll)

Parameters

• fileName
  The name of the intermediate file that contains the data from the connector space to be exported to a connected data source. This value comes from the Output file name box in Management Agent Configuration in the Configure Run Profile dialog box when you create a run profile with an Export type step for an extensible connectivity management agent.

• connectTo
  The name of the connected directory. This value comes from the Connect To dialog box of the Configure Connection Information dialog box in the extensible connectivity management agent properties.

• user
  The user name of the account that has the appropriate privileges on the connected directory. This value comes from the User box in the Configure Connection Information dialog box in the extensible connectivity management agent properties.

• password
  The plain text password of the account that has the appropriate privileges on the connected directory. This value comes from the Password box in the Configure Connection Information dialog box in the extensible connectivity management agent properties.

• configParameters
  The parameters and values that are configured in the Configure Additional Parameters dialog box of the extensible connectivity management agent properties.

• types
  A TypeDescriptionCollection object that contains a collection of TypeDescription objects.

Remarks

Implement this method in all types of file-based connected data source extensions. Although this method is not called from import-only connected data source extensions, an error occurs if this method is not implemented in the extension. For an import-only connected data source extension, you can implement this method by throwing an EntryPointNotImplementedException exception.

Use this method to create the intermediate file and call the connected data source to process the intermediate file.

All data in Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization Service (FIM Synchronization Service) uses the Unicode character set. If the connected data source that receives the exported data requires data in a different character set, use this method to convert the Unicode data to the character set that is required by your connected data source.

For a code example that implements this interface, see Example: Connected Data Source Extension for File-Based Data Sources.
