Procédure : créer un abonnement par extraction de données (pull) (programmation RMO)

Les abonnements par extraction de données (pull) peuvent être créés par le biais de la programmation au moyen des objets RMO (Replication Management Objects). Les classes RMO utilisées pour créer un abonnement par extraction de données (pull) sont fonction du type de publication à laquelle l'abonnement appartient.

Pour créer un abonnement par extraction de données (pull) ou une publication transactionnelle

  1. Créez des connexions à la fois à l'Abonné et au serveur de publication au moyen de la classe ServerConnection.

  2. Créez une instance de la classe TransPublication en utilisant la connexion au serveur de publication de l'étape 1. Spécifiez Name, DatabaseName et ConnectionContext.

  3. Appelez la méthode LoadProperties. Si cette méthode renvoie false, les propriétés spécifiées à l'étape 2 sont incorrectes ou la publication n'existe pas sur le serveur.

  4. Effectuez une opération AND logique au niveau du bit (& dans Visual C# et And dans Visual Basic) entre la propriété Attributes et AllowPull. Si le résultat est None, appliquez àAttributes le résutat d'une opération OR logique au niveau du bit (| dans Visual C# et Or dans Visual Basic) entre Attributes et AllowPull. Ensuite, appelez CommitPropertyChanges pour activer les abonnements par extraction de données (pull).

  5. Si la base de données d'abonnements n'existe pas, créez-la en utilisant la classe Database. Pour plus d'informations, consultez Création, modification et suppression de bases de données.

  6. Créez une instance de la classe TransPullSubscription.

  7. Définissez les propriétés suivantes des abonnements :

  8. Appelez la méthode Create.

  9. Au moyen de l'instance de la classe TransPublication de l'étape 2, appelez la méthode MakePullSubscriptionWellKnown pour inscrire l'abonnement par extraction de données (pull) sur le serveur de publication. Si l'abonnement est déjà inscrit dans le Registre, une erreur se produit.

Pour créer un abonnement par extraction de données (pull) vers une publication de fusion

  1. Créez des connexions à la fois à l'Abonné et au serveur de publication au moyen de la classe ServerConnection.

  2. Créez une instance de la classe MergePublication en utilisant la connexion au serveur de publication de l'étape 1. Spécifiez Name, DatabaseName et ConnectionContext.

  3. Appelez la méthode LoadProperties. Si cette méthode renvoie false, les propriétés spécifiées à l'étape 2 sont incorrectes ou la publication n'existe pas sur le serveur.

  4. Effectuez une opération AND logique au niveau du bit (& dans Visual C# et And dans Visual Basic) entre la propriété Attributes et AllowPull. Si le résultat est None, appliquez àAttributes le résutat d'une opération OR logique au niveau du bit (| dans Visual C# et Or dans Visual Basic) entre Attributes et AllowPull. Ensuite, appelez CommitPropertyChanges pour activer les abonnements par extraction de données (pull).

  5. Si la base de données d'abonnements n'existe pas, créez-la en utilisant la classe Database. Pour plus d'informations, consultez Création, modification et suppression de bases de données.

  6. Créez une instance de la classe MergePullSubscription.

  7. Définissez les propriétés suivantes des abonnements :

  8. Appelez la méthode Create.

  9. Au moyen de l'instance de la classe MergePublication de l'étape 2, appelez la méthode MakePullSubscriptionWellKnown pour inscrire l'abonnement par extraction de données (pull) sur le serveur de publication. Si l'abonnement est déjà inscrit dans le Registre, une erreur se produit.
