KnowledgeSyncProvider class

Question

Hi,

Does anybody know where to find documentation, howtos, tutorials, etc., on how to extend the KnowledgeSyncProvider class. This class in new with the Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 CTP. It comes with a sample, but we were not able to find a big picture documentation of this class, besides the absolutely useless MSDN reference documentation.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Inherit the class: public abstract class KnowledgeSyncProvider : SyncProvider

Answer 2

The KnowledgeSyncProvider class seems to have been in the Microsoft Sync Framework 1.0 already. There is a sample here How to: Configure N-Tier Peer-to-Peer Synchronization

The SyncSDK (1st link Zanoni provided) comes with a sample application the Managed NTFS Provider Sample. And the MyStore.cs file has some inline documentation too.

There is the Pro Sync Framework book on google books (it think they handle the 1.0 version). Of course some pages are missing but I guess you can figure out some anyway. And the source-code for the book samples is available too
