Remarks

The following code example provisions a SQL Server Compact database. Provisioning is based on scope information that is retrieved from the server by calling GetDescriptionForScope and specifying the scope name ("filtered_customer"), the connection, the object prefix name used on the server (null), and the optional database schema in which Sync Framework stores synchronization objects (in this case "Sync"). SQL Server Compact databases do not support separate schemas, so we prefix the name of all synchronization-related objects with "Sync" so that they are easy to identify. To view this code in the context of a complete example, see How To: Execute Database Synchronization (SQL Server).

DbSyncScopeDescription clientSqlCe1Desc = SqlSyncDescriptionBuilder.GetDescriptionForScope("filtered_customer", null, "Sync", serverConn);
SqlCeSyncScopeProvisioning clientSqlCe1Config = new SqlCeSyncScopeProvisioning(clientSqlCe1Conn, clientSqlCe1Desc);
clientSqlCe1Config.ObjectPrefix = "Sync";
clientSqlCe1Config.Apply();
Dim clientSqlCe1Desc As DbSyncScopeDescription = _
    SqlSyncDescriptionBuilder.GetDescriptionForScope("filtered_customer", Nothing, "Sync", serverConn)
Dim clientSqlCe1Config As New SqlCeSyncScopeProvisioning(clientSqlCe1Conn, clientSqlCe1Desc)
clientSqlCe1Config.ObjectPrefix = "Sync"
clientSqlCe1Config.Apply()
