    Adding synchronization to your application

Initializing the synchronization options

The details of any synchronization, including the URL of the MobiLink synchronization server, the script version to use, the MobiLink user ID, and so on, are all held in a UlSynchOptions object.

Before synchronizing, initialize the synchronization parameters as follows:

UlSynchOptions opts = new UlSynchOptions();

The UlSynchOptions() object has a set of methods to set and get its fields. For a list, see Synchronization parameters. Use these methods to set the required synchronization parameters before synchronizing. For example:

opts.setUserName( "50" );
opts.setScriptVersion( "default" );
opts.setStream( new UlSocketStream() );

Notes 

The synchronization streams for UltraLite Java applications are objects, and are set by their constructors. The available streams are as follows:

• UlSocketStream    TCP/IP synchronization

• UlSecureSocketStream    TCP/IP synchronization with Certicom elliptic-curve transport-layer security.

• UlSecureRSASocketStream    TCP/IP synchronization with Certicom RSA transport-layer security.

• UlHTTPStream    HTTP synchronization.

• UlHTTPSStream    HTTPS synchronization.

The following line sets the stream to TCP/IP:

synch_opts.setStream( new UlSocketStream() );

For more information, see Synchronization parameters.
