ul_u_long ULCountUploadRows (
SQLCA * sqlca,
ul_publication_mask publication-mask,
ul_u_long threshold );
Returns the number of rows that need to be synchronized, either in a set of publications or in the whole database.
One use of the function is to prompt users to synchronize.
sqlca A pointer to the SQLCA.
publication-mask A set of publications to check. A value of 0 corresponds to the entire database. The set is supplied as a mask. For example, the following mask corresponds to publications PUB1 and PUB2.:
UL_PUB_PUB1 | UL_PUB_PUB2
For more information on publication masks, see Designing sets of data to synchronize separately.
threshold A value that determines the maximum number of rows to count, and so limits the amount of time taken by the call. A value of 0 corresponds to no limit. A value of 1 determines if any rows need to be synchronized.
The following call checks the entire database for the number of rows to be synchronized:
count = ULCountUploadRows( sqlca, 0, 0 );
The following call checks publications PUB1 and PUB2 for a maximum of 1000 rows:
count = ULCountUploadRows( sqlca, UL_PUB_PUB1 | UL_PUB_PUB2, 1000 );
The following call checks to see if any rows need to be synchronized:
count = ULCountUploadRows( sqlca, UL_SYNC_ALL, 1 );
