SqlCeClientSyncProvider Class

Abstracts a client synchronization provider for SQL Server Compact that communicates with the client and shields the synchronization agent from the specific implementation of the client database.

Namespace: Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.SqlServerCe
Assembly: Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.SqlServerCe (in microsoft.synchronization.data.sqlserverce.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Class SqlCeClientSyncProvider
    Inherits ClientSyncProvider
public class SqlCeClientSyncProvider : ClientSyncProvider
public ref class SqlCeClientSyncProvider : public ClientSyncProvider
public class SqlCeClientSyncProvider extends ClientSyncProvider
public class SqlCeClientSyncProvider extends ClientSyncProvider

Remarks

The principal activities of the client synchronization provider are as follows:

  • Stores information about tables on the client that are enabled for synchronization.

  • Retrieves changes that occurred in the client database since the last synchronization.

  • Applies incremental changes to the client database.

  • Detects conflicting changes.

Example

The following code example creates a class that derives from SqlCeClientSyncProvider. The class creates a connection to the client database and handles several common events, including schema creation in the client database. To view this code in the context of a complete example, see How to: Work with Events and Program Business Logic.

public class SampleClientSyncProvider : SqlCeClientSyncProvider
{

    public SampleClientSyncProvider()
    {
        //Specify a connection string for the sample client database.
        Utility util = new Utility();
        this.ConnectionString = util.ClientConnString;

        //Log information for the following events.
        this.SchemaCreated += new EventHandler<SchemaCreatedEventArgs>(EventLogger.LogEvents);
        this.ChangesSelected += new EventHandler<ChangesSelectedEventArgs>(EventLogger.LogEvents);
        this.ChangesApplied += new EventHandler<ChangesAppliedEventArgs>(EventLogger.LogEvents);
        this.ApplyChangeFailed += new EventHandler<ApplyChangeFailedEventArgs>(EventLogger.LogEvents);
        
        //Use the following events to fix up schema on the client.
        //We use the CreatingSchema event to change the schema
        //by using the API. We use the SchemaCreated event 
        //to change the schema by using SQL.
        //Note that both schema events fire for the Customer table,
        //even though we already created the table. This allows us
        //to work with the table at this point if we have to.
        this.CreatingSchema += new EventHandler<CreatingSchemaEventArgs>(SampleClientSyncProvider_CreatingSchema);
        this.SchemaCreated += new EventHandler<SchemaCreatedEventArgs>(SampleClientSyncProvider_SchemaCreated);

     }

            //to specify literal defaults with .Columns[ColName].DefaultValue,
            //but we will specify defaults like NEWID() by calling
            //ALTER TABLE after the table is created.
