The metadata format for the database providers changed in Sync Framework 2.1. The new metadata format is incompatible with previous versions of the database providers. Components in the Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.SqlServerCe namespace automatically upgrade the metadata format of a SQL Server Compact database. This upgrade occurs the first time a component in this namespace connects to the database. The SqlCeSyncStoreMetadataUpgrade class is used to manually upgrade the metadata to the new format. Be aware that the upgrade to the new metadata format cannot be undone, and when you try to use an earlier version of the database providers to synchronize a database that is in the 2.1 format, Sync Framework throws an exception.

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
