RelationalSyncProvider.ApplyChangeFailed Event

Occurs during uploading, after failing to apply a row at a node.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Event ApplyChangeFailed As EventHandler(Of DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs)
'Usage
Dim instance As RelationalSyncProvider
Dim handler As EventHandler(Of DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs)

AddHandler instance.ApplyChangeFailed, handler
public event EventHandler<DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs> ApplyChangeFailed
public:
 event EventHandler<DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs^>^ ApplyChangeFailed {
    void add (EventHandler<DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs^>^ value);
    void remove (EventHandler<DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs^>^ value);
}
member ApplyChangeFailed : IEvent<EventHandler<DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs>,
    DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs>
JScript supports the use of events, but not the declaration of new ones.

Remarks

If a row cannot be applied during synchronization, the ApplyChangeFailed event is raised. The DbApplyChangeFailedEventArgs object provides information about the error or conflict that caused the failure. In a handler for the event, you can respond to the event in several ways, including specifying whether the synchronization provider should try to apply the row again. For more information, see How to: Handle Data Conflicts and Errors for Database Synchronization (SQL Server).

Examples

The following code examples show how update-update conflicts can be processed in an ApplyChangeFailed event handler. In the example, the conflicting rows are displayed to the console with an option to specify which row should win the conflict. To view this code in the context of a complete example, see How to: Handle Data Conflicts and Errors for Database Synchronization (SQL Server).
