SqlCeReplication.EndSynchronize Method

Ends an asynchronous data synchronization that was started by a call to the BeginSynchronize method.

Namespace: System.Data.SqlServerCe
Assembly: System.Data.SqlServerCe (in system.data.sqlserverce.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub EndSynchronize ( _
    ar As IAsyncResult _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As SqlCeReplication
Dim ar As IAsyncResult

instance.EndSynchronize(ar)

public void EndSynchronize (
    IAsyncResult ar
)

public:
void EndSynchronize (
    IAsyncResult^ ar
)

public void EndSynchronize (
    IAsyncResult ar
)

public function EndSynchronize (
    ar : IAsyncResult
)

Not applicable.

Parameters

• ar
  The IAsyncResult interface returned by the BeginSynchronize method.

Remarks

This function should be called on completion of synchronization to test for errors that occurred during the asynchronous data synchronization. If synchronization failed, this function throws a SqlCeException that reflects the synchronization errors. This function is usually called from the user delegate, which is automatically called at synchronization completion.

For information about asynchronous data synchronization in SQL Server Compact Edition, see "Asynchronous Data Synchronization" in the SQL Server Compact Edition Books Online.

Example

The following example shows how to set up SQL Server Compact Edition replication to perform asynchronous data synchronization.
