Como tratar conflitos de dados e erros

Este tópico mostra como tratar conflitos de dados e erros no Sync Framework. Os exemplos neste tópico se concentram nos seguintes eventos e tipos do Sync Framework:

Para obter informações sobre como executar o código de exemplo, consulte "Exemplo de aplicativos nos tópicos de instruções" em Programando tarefas comuns de sincronização do cliente e do servidor.

Entendendo os conflitos de dados e erros

No Sync Framework, os conflitos e erros são detectados no nível da linha. Uma linha está em conflito se ela foi alterada em mais de um nó entre as sincronizações. Normalmente, os erros que ocorrem durante a sincronização envolvem uma violação de restrição, por exemplo, uma chave primária duplicada. Se possível, os aplicativos devem ser projetados para evitar conflitos, uma vez que sua detecção e resolução adicionam complexidade, processamento e tráfego de rede. As maneiras mais comuns de evitar conflitos são: atualizar uma tabela em apenas um nó (geralmente no servidor) ou filtrar dados para que somente um nó atualize uma determinada linha. Para obter mais informações sobre filtragem, consulte Como filtrar linhas e colunas. Em alguns aplicativos, os conflitos não podem ser evitados. Por exemplo, em um aplicativo de força de vendas, dois vendedores podem dividir um território. Os dois podem atualizar os dados para o mesmo cliente e as mesmas ordens. Portanto, o Sync Framework fornece um conjunto de recursos que podem ser usados para detectar e resolver conflitos.

Os conflitos de dados podem ocorrer em qualquer cenário de sincronização no qual as alterações sejam feitas em mais de um nó. Obviamente, os conflitos podem ocorrer na sincronização bidirecional, mas também podem ocorrer nas sincronizações somente para download e somente para upload. Por exemplo, se uma linha for excluída no servidor e a mesma linha for atualizada no cliente, haverá um conflito quando o Sync Framework tentar aplicar a atualização carregada no servidor. Os conflitos são sempre entre o servidor e o cliente que atualmente está sincronizando. Considere o exemplo a seguir:

  1. O cliente A e o cliente B sincronizam com o servidor.

  2. Uma linha é atualizada no cliente A e, em seguida, o cliente A sincroniza. Não há nenhum conflito, e a linha é aplicada no servidor.

  3. A mesma linha é atualizada no cliente B e, em seguida, o cliente B sincroniza. A linha do cliente B agora está em conflito com a linha do servidor por causa da atualização gerada no cliente A.

  4. Se você resolver esse conflito a favor do servidor, o Sync Framework poderá aplicar a linha do servidor no cliente B. Se você resolver a favor do cliente B, o Sync Framework poderá aplicar a linha do cliente B no servidor. Durante uma sincronização posterior entre o cliente A e o servidor, a atualização originada no cliente B é aplicada no cliente A.

Tipos de conflitos e erros

O Sync Framework detecta os seguintes tipos de conflitos. Esses conflitos são definidos na enumeração ConflictType:

  • Ocorre um conflito de ClientInsertServerInsert quando o cliente e o servidor inserem uma linha com a mesma chave primária. Esse tipo de conflito também é conhecido como uma colisão de chave primária.

  • Ocorre um conflito de ClientUpdateServerUpdate quando o cliente e o servidor alteram a mesma linha. Este é o tipo mais comum de conflito.

  • Ocorre um conflito de ClientUpdateServerDelete quando o cliente atualiza uma linha e o servidor exclui a mesma linha.

  • Ocorre um conflito de ClientDeleteServerUpdate quando o cliente exclui uma linha e o servidor atualiza a mesma linha.

  • Um conflito ErrorsOccurred ocorre quando um erro impede que uma linha seja aplicada.

Detecção de conflitos e erros

Se uma linha não puder ser aplicada durante a sincronização, normalmente será devido a um erro ou conflito de dados. Em ambos os casos, o evento DbServerSyncProviderApplyChangeFailed ou SqlCeClientSyncProviderApplyChangeFailed é gerado, dependendo se o erro ou o conflito ocorreu durante uma fase de upload ou download da sincronização. Se o evento ApplyChangeFailed do cliente for gerado, o Sync Framework selecionará quaisquer linhas conflitantes para você. Em seguida, decida como resolver esses conflitos. Se o evento ApplyChangeFailed do servidor for gerado, as linhas conflitantes serão selecionadas com dois comandos definidos no SyncAdapter para cada tabela:

  • A consulta ou o procedimento armazenado que você especifica para a propriedade SelectConflictUpdatedRowsCommand seleciona as linhas em conflito na tabela base do banco de dados do servidor. O Sync Framework executará esse comando se uma operação de inserção, atualização ou exclusão retornar um valor @sync\_row\_count igual a 0. Esse valor indica que houve falha na operação. Esse comando seleciona as linhas de conflitos ClientInsertServerInsert, ClientUpdateServerUpdate e ClientDeleteServerUpdate.

  • A consulta ou o procedimento armazenado especificado para SelectConflictDeletedRowsCommand seleciona as linhas em conflito na tabela de marcas de exclusão no banco de dados do servidor. O Sync Framework executará esse comando se a linha em conflito não foi encontrada na tabela base. Esse comando seleciona as linhas do conflito ClientUpdateServerDelete.

Os dados de cada linha em conflito são armazenados em uma coleção SyncConflict. Essa coleção pode ficar grande o bastante para causar um erro de memória insuficiente nestas situações:

  • Há muitas linhas conflitantes. Considere a possibilidade de sincronizar um número menor de linhas em cada sessão ou limite o número de conflitos atualizando uma determinada linha em apenas um nó.

  • As linhas em conflito contêm colunas que usam tipos de dados grandes. Considere a possibilidade de não incluir as colunas que usam tipos de dados grandes no conjunto de colunas a ser sincronizado. Para obter mais informações, consulte Como filtrar linhas e colunas.

Resolução de conflitos e erros

A resolução de conflitos e erros deve ser tratada em resposta aos eventos DbServerSyncProviderApplyChangeFailed e SqlCeClientSyncProviderApplyChangeFailed. O objeto ApplyChangeFailedEventArgs fornece acesso a várias propriedades que podem ser usadas durante a resolução de conflitos:

  • Especifique como resolver o conflito definindo a propriedade Action para um dos valores da enumeração ApplyAction:

    • Continue: ignorar o conflito e continuar a sincronização.

    • RetryApplyingRow: repetir a aplicação da linha. Haverá falha na nova tentativa, e o evento será gerado novamente se você não solucionar a causa do conflito, alterando uma ou ambas as linhas conflitantes.

    • RetryWithForceWrite: repetir com lógica para forçar a aplicação da alteração. O SqlCeClientSyncProvider possui suporte interno para essa opção. Para usar essa opção no servidor, use o parâmetro @sync\_force\_write e adicione suporte nos comandos que aplicam alterações ao banco de dados do servidor. Por exemplo, para um conflito ClientUpdateServerDelete, você poderia alterar a atualização em uma inserção se @sync\_force\_write estivesse definido como 1. Para ver o código de exemplo, consulte a seção "Exemplos" mais adiante neste tópico.

  • Obtenha o tipo de conflito e visualize as linhas conflitantes a partir do cliente e servidor com a propriedade Conflict.

  • Obtenha o conjunto de dados das alterações que está sendo sincronizado usando a propriedade Context. As linhas expostas pela propriedade Conflict são cópias; portanto, a substituição delas não altera as linhas aplicadas. Use o conjunto de dados exposto pela propriedade Context para desenvolver os esquemas de resolução personalizados se o aplicativo os exigir. Para ver o código de exemplo, consulte a seção "Exemplos" mais adiante neste tópico.

O SqlCeClientSyncProvider também inclui uma propriedade ConflictResolver que pode ser usada para resolver conflitos no cliente. Para cada tipo de conflito, você pode definir um valor a partir da enumeração ResolveAction:

Não há nenhum requisito para definir ConflictResolver para cada tipo de conflito. Você pode resolver conflitos da mesma maneira como no servidor, tratando o evento ApplyChangeFailed. No entanto, a propriedade ConflictResolver oferece uma maneira fácil de especificar as opções de resolução de conflitos no cliente.

Exemplo

Os exemplos de código a seguir mostram como configurar a resolução e detecção de conflitos para a tabela Customer no banco de dados de amostra Sync Framework. Nesse exemplo, os comandos sincronização são criados manualmente em vez de usar o SqlSyncAdapterBuilder. Você pode usar a resolução e detecção de conflitos com os comandos gerados pelo SqlSyncAdapterBuilder, mas os comandos manuais fornecem muito mais flexibilidade, especialmente sobre como você pode forçar a aplicação de alterações conflitantes.

Partes Principais da API

Esta seção fornece exemplos de código que destacam as partes principais da API usadas na resolução e detecção de conflitos. A consulta a seguir seleciona linhas conflitantes a partir da tabela base no banco de dados do servidor.

SqlCommand customerUpdateConflicts = new SqlCommand();
customerUpdateConflicts.CommandText =
    "SELECT CustomerId, CustomerName, SalesPerson, CustomerType " +
    "FROM Sales.Customer " +
    "WHERE CustomerId = @CustomerId";
customerUpdateConflicts.Parameters.Add("@CustomerId", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier);
customerUpdateConflicts.Connection = serverConn;
customerSyncAdapter.SelectConflictUpdatedRowsCommand = customerUpdateConflicts;
Dim customerUpdateConflicts As New SqlCommand()
With customerUpdateConflicts
    .CommandText = _
        "SELECT CustomerId, CustomerName, SalesPerson, CustomerType " _
      & "FROM Sales.Customer " + "WHERE CustomerId = @CustomerId"
    .Parameters.Add("@CustomerId", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier)
    .Connection = serverConn
End With
customerSyncAdapter.SelectConflictUpdatedRowsCommand = customerUpdateConflicts

A consulta a seguir seleciona linhas conflitantes a partir da tabela de marcas de exclusão no banco de dados do servidor.

SqlCommand customerDeleteConflicts = new SqlCommand();
customerDeleteConflicts.CommandText =
    "SELECT CustomerId, CustomerName, SalesPerson, CustomerType " +
    "FROM Sales.Customer_Tombstone " +
    "WHERE CustomerId = @CustomerId";
customerDeleteConflicts.Parameters.Add("@CustomerId", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier);
customerDeleteConflicts.Connection = serverConn;
customerSyncAdapter.SelectConflictDeletedRowsCommand = customerDeleteConflicts;
Dim customerDeleteConflicts As New SqlCommand()
With customerDeleteConflicts
    .CommandText = _
        "SELECT CustomerId, CustomerName, SalesPerson, CustomerType " _
      & "FROM Sales.Customer_Tombstone " + "WHERE CustomerId = @CustomerId"
    .Parameters.Add("@CustomerId", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier)
    .Connection = serverConn
End With
customerSyncAdapter.SelectConflictDeletedRowsCommand = customerDeleteConflicts

O exemplo de código a seguir cria um procedimento armazenado que aplica atualizações no banco de dados do servidor. Esse procedimento é especificado para a propriedade UpdateCommand. Os procedimentos armazenados também podem ser usados para aplicar inserções e exclusões no banco de dados do servidor. Para obter exemplos desses procedimentos, consulte Scripts de instalação para tópicos de instruções do provedor de banco de dados.

O procedimento de atualização usp_CustomerApplyUpdate tenta uma operação de atualização ou inserção, com base no valor do parâmetro @sync\_force\_write e se a linha para atualização existir no banco de dados do servidor. Se a linha não existir, o procedimento transforma a atualização em uma operação de inserção. Nesse exemplo, a linha ausente é gerada por um conflito de atualização/exclusão.

    CREATE PROCEDURE usp_CustomerApplyUpdate (  
        @sync_last_received_anchor binary(8), 
        @sync_client_id uniqueidentifier,
        @sync_force_write int,
        @sync_row_count int out,
        @CustomerId uniqueidentifier,
        @CustomerName nvarchar(100),
        @SalesPerson nvarchar(100),
        @CustomerType nvarchar(100))        
    AS      
        -- Try to apply an update if the RetryWithForceWrite option
        -- was not specified for the sync adapter's update command.
        IF @sync_force_write = 0
        BEGIN   
            UPDATE Sales.Customer 
            SET CustomerName = @CustomerName, SalesPerson = @SalesPerson,
            CustomerType = @CustomerType, UpdateId = @sync_client_id
            WHERE CustomerId = @CustomerId
            AND (UpdateTimestamp <= @sync_last_received_anchor
            OR UpdateId = @sync_client_id)
        END
        ELSE
        -- Try to apply an update if the RetryWithForceWrite option
        -- was specified for the sync adapter's update command.
        BEGIN
            --If the row exists, update it.
            -- You might want to include code here to handle 
            -- possible error conditions.
            IF EXISTS (SELECT CustomerId FROM Sales.Customer
                       WHERE CustomerId = @CustomerId)
            BEGIN
                UPDATE Sales.Customer 
                SET CustomerName = @CustomerName, SalesPerson = @SalesPerson,
                CustomerType = @CustomerType, UpdateId = @sync_client_id
                WHERE CustomerId = @CustomerId          
            END
            
            -- The row does not exist, possibly due to a client-update/
            -- server-delete conflict. Change the update into an insert.
            ELSE
            BEGIN
                INSERT INTO Sales.Customer 
                       (CustomerId, CustomerName, SalesPerson,
                        CustomerType, UpdateId)
                VALUES (@CustomerId, @CustomerName, @SalesPerson,
                        @CustomerType, @sync_client_id)
            END
        END
    
        SET @sync_row_count = @@rowcount
        

O exemplo de código a seguir define as opções de resolução de conflito para SqlCeClientSyncProvider. Como pode ter sido observado antes, essas opções não são obrigatórias, mas elas fornecem uma maneira fácil de resolver conflitos. Nesse exemplo, as atualizações sempre devem prevalecer nos conflitos de atualização/exclusão, e todos os outros conflitos devem gerar o evento ApplyChangeFailed do cliente.

this.ConflictResolver.ClientDeleteServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.ServerWins;            
this.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerDeleteAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
//If any of the following conflicts or errors occur, the ApplyChangeFailed
//event is raised.
this.ConflictResolver.ClientInsertServerInsertAction = ResolveAction.FireEvent;
this.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.FireEvent;
this.ConflictResolver.StoreErrorAction = ResolveAction.FireEvent;

//Log information for the ApplyChangeFailed event and handle any
//ResolveAction.FireEvent cases.
this.ApplyChangeFailed +=new EventHandler<ApplyChangeFailedEventArgs>(SampleClientSyncProvider_ApplyChangeFailed);
Me.ConflictResolver.ClientDeleteServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.ServerWins
Me.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerDeleteAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins
'If any of the following conflicts or errors occur, the ApplyChangeFailed
'event is raised.
Me.ConflictResolver.ClientInsertServerInsertAction = ResolveAction.FireEvent
Me.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.FireEvent
Me.ConflictResolver.StoreErrorAction = ResolveAction.FireEvent

'Log information for the ApplyChangeFailed event and handle any
'ResolveAction.FireEvent cases.
AddHandler Me.ApplyChangeFailed, AddressOf SampleClientSyncProvider_ApplyChangeFailed

Para os conflitos de atualização de cliente/exclusão de servidor, a atualização é gravada forçada no servidor, como pode ser visto no exemplo de código a seguir. O conflito de atualização de cliente/exclusão de servidor é controlado no servidor com a opção RetryWithForceWrite no manipulador de eventos ApplyChangeFailed do servidor. Quando você usa essa opção, isso significa que o parâmetro @sync\_force\_write está definido como 1 quando o procedimento armazenado de atualização é chamado no servidor.

if (e.Conflict.ConflictType == ConflictType.ClientUpdateServerDelete)
{

    //For client-update/server-delete conflicts, we force the client 
    //change to be applied at the server. The stored procedure specified for 
    //customerSyncAdapter.UpdateCommand accepts the @sync_force_write parameter
    //and includes logic to handle this case.
    Console.WriteLine(String.Empty);
    Console.WriteLine("***********************************");
    Console.WriteLine("A client update / server delete conflict was detected.");

    e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryWithForceWrite;

    Console.WriteLine("The client change was retried at the server with RetryWithForceWrite.");
    Console.WriteLine("***********************************"); 
    Console.WriteLine(String.Empty);

}
If e.Conflict.ConflictType = ConflictType.ClientUpdateServerDelete Then

    'For client-update/server-delete conflicts, we force the client 
    'change to be applied at the server. The stored procedure specified for 
    'customerSyncAdapter.UpdateCommand accepts the @sync_force_write parameter
    'and includes logic to handle this case.
    Console.WriteLine(String.Empty)
    Console.WriteLine("***********************************")
    Console.WriteLine("A client update / server delete conflict was detected.")

    e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryWithForceWrite

    Console.WriteLine("The client change was retried at the server with RetryWithForceWrite.")
    Console.WriteLine("***********************************")
    Console.WriteLine(String.Empty)
End If

O exemplo de código a seguir registra as informações de conflito e faz gravações forçadas de quaisquer inserções conflitantes no manipulador de eventos ApplyChangeFailed do cliente.

private void SampleClientSyncProvider_ApplyChangeFailed(object sender, ApplyChangeFailedEventArgs e)
{

    //Log event data from the client side.
    EventLogger.LogEvents(sender, e);

    //Force write any inserted server rows that are in conflict 
    //when they are downloaded.
    if (e.Conflict.ConflictType == ConflictType.ClientInsertServerInsert)
    {
        e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryWithForceWrite;
    }

    if (e.Conflict.ConflictType == ConflictType.ClientUpdateServerUpdate)
    {
        //Logic goes here.
    }

    if (e.Conflict.ConflictType == ConflictType.ErrorsOccurred)
    {
        //Logic goes here.
    }

}
Private Sub SampleClientSyncProvider_ApplyChangeFailed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ApplyChangeFailedEventArgs)

    'Log event data from the client side.
    EventLogger.LogEvents(sender, e)

    'Force write any inserted server rows that are in conflict 
    'when they are downloaded.
    If e.Conflict.ConflictType = ConflictType.ClientInsertServerInsert Then
        e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryWithForceWrite
    End If

    If e.Conflict.ConflictType = ConflictType.ClientUpdateServerUpdate Then
        'Logic goes here.
    End If

    If e.Conflict.ConflictType = ConflictType.ErrorsOccurred Then
        'Logic goes here.
    End If

End Sub 'SampleClientSyncProvider_ApplyChangeFailed

Exemplo de código completo

O exemplo de código completo a seguir inclui os exemplos de código descritos anteriormente e o código adicional para executar a sincronização. Além disso, saiba que o exemplo fornece aos usuários do aplicativo uma opção de como resolver os conflitos de atualização/atualização. Uma das opções é um esquema de resolução personalizado que combina valores de coluna das linhas conflitantes. O código para o esquema de resolução personalizado está contido nos manipuladores de eventos SampleServerSyncProvider_ApplyChangeFailed e SampleServerSyncProvider_ChangesApplied. O exemplo requer a classe Utility disponível em Classe de utilitário para tópicos de instruções do provedor de banco de dados.
