SyncParameter Constructor (String, Object)

Initializes a new instance of the SyncParameter class by using name and value parameters.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Synchronization.Data
Assembly:  Microsoft.Synchronization.Data (in Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
    name As String, _
    value As Object _
)
'Usage
Dim name As String
Dim value As Object

Dim instance As New SyncParameter(name, value)
public SyncParameter(
    string name,
    Object value
)
public:
SyncParameter(
    String^ name, 
    Object^ value
)
new : 
        name:string * 
        value:Object -> SyncParameter
public function SyncParameter(
    name : String, 
    value : Object
)

Parameters

Remarks

Synchronization parameters are typically used to pass filtering information to the synchronization agent. These parameters are then used in commands for the synchronization adapter.

Examples

The following code example is from a class that derives from SyncAgent. This code creates a SyncParameter object that specifies a value for the @SalesPerson parameter. In an application, this value might come from a login ID or other user input. To view code in the context of a complete example, see How to: Filter Rows and Columns.

this.Configuration.SyncParameters.Add(
    new SyncParameter("@SalesPerson", "Brenda Diaz"));
Me.Configuration.SyncParameters.Add(New SyncParameter("@SalesPerson", "Brenda Diaz"))

The following code example is from a class that derives from DbServerSyncProvider. This code specifies which inserted columns and rows to download for the Customer table. You can hardcode a value for SalesPerson. However, it is more common to use a parameter that has a value that can change, as shown in the example. The example passes the filter parameter together with the other parameters that are required to download incremental inserts.

SqlCommand customerIncrInserts = new SqlCommand();
customerIncrInserts.CommandText =
    "SELECT CustomerId, CustomerName, CustomerType " +
    "FROM Sales.Customer " +
    "WHERE SalesPerson = @SalesPerson " +
    "AND (InsertTimestamp > @sync_last_received_anchor " +
    "AND InsertTimestamp <= @sync_new_received_anchor " +
    "AND InsertId <> @sync_client_id)";
customerIncrInserts.Parameters.Add("@SalesPerson", SqlDbType.NVarChar);
customerIncrInserts.Parameters.Add("@" + SyncSession.SyncLastReceivedAnchor, SqlDbType.Timestamp);
customerIncrInserts.Parameters.Add("@" + SyncSession.SyncNewReceivedAnchor, SqlDbType.Timestamp);
customerIncrInserts.Parameters.Add("@" + SyncSession.SyncClientId, SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier);
customerIncrInserts.Connection = serverConn;
customerSyncAdapter.SelectIncrementalInsertsCommand = customerIncrInserts;
Dim customerIncrInserts As New SqlCommand()
With customerIncrInserts
    .CommandText = _
        "SELECT CustomerId, CustomerName, CustomerType " _
      & "FROM Sales.Customer " _
      & "WHERE SalesPerson = @SalesPerson " _
      & "AND (InsertTimestamp > @sync_last_received_anchor " _
      & "AND InsertTimestamp <= @sync_new_received_anchor " _
      & "AND InsertId <> @sync_client_id)"
    .Parameters.Add("@SalesPerson", SqlDbType.NVarChar)
    .Parameters.Add("@" + SyncSession.SyncLastReceivedAnchor, SqlDbType.Timestamp)
    .Parameters.Add("@" + SyncSession.SyncNewReceivedAnchor, SqlDbType.Timestamp)
    .Parameters.Add("@" + SyncSession.SyncClientId, SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier)
    .Connection = serverConn
End With
customerSyncAdapter.SelectIncrementalInsertsCommand = customerIncrInserts
