Understanding the ActiveSync Manager's Role (Windows CE 5.0)
ActiveSync supports data synchronization between a Windows-based desktop computer and a Windows CE–based device. After comparing the data objects on both machines, it updates both computers with the most-recent versions of those objects.
The ActiveSync manager handles the "global" tasks, such as detecting changes, transferring data, and resolving conflicts. It does not decide which data objects are to be kept, deleted, or copied. Those functions are performed by developer-written service providers.
