      Adding synchronization to your UltraLite application

Calling the synchronization function

In order to synchronize data with a MobiLink synchronization server, UltraLite applications call a synchronization function. The particular function depends on the development model you are using and on the synchronization stream you have selected.

It is helpful to distinguish the following kinds of synchronization streams:

• Externally-initiated synchronization streams    ActiveSync and HotSync synchronization are initiated by an external application.

  For information about calling HotSync synchronization, see the following:

  • MobileVB    See Synchronization.

  • Embedded SQL    See Adding HotSync synchronization to Palm applications.

  • Static C++ API    See Adding HotSync synchronization to Palm applications.

• Direct synchronization streams    TCP/IP, HTTP, and HTTPS synchronization streams are initiated directly from the UltraLite.

  For information about calling the synchronization function for these streams, see the following:

  • UltraLite for MobileVB    See Synchronize method.

  • UltraLite ActiveX    See Synchronize method.

  • Native UltraLite for Java    See ianywhere.native_ultralite.Connection.synchronize in the API Reference.

  • UltraLite.NET    See Synchronize in the UltraLite.NET API Reference.

  • Embedded SQL    See ULSynchronize function.

  • Static C++ API    See Synchronize method.

  • Static Java API    See synchronize method.
