IKnowledgeSyncProvider::GetChangeBatch
Gets a change batch that contains item metadata for items that are not contained in the specified knowledge from the destination provider.
Syntax
HRESULT GetChangeBatch(
DWORD dwBatchSize,
ISyncKnowledge * pSyncKnowledge,
ISyncChangeBatch ** ppSyncChangeBatch,
IUnknown ** ppUnkDataRetriever);
Parameters
dwBatchSize
[in] The requested number of changes to include in the change batch.pSyncKnowledge
[in] The knowledge from the destination provider. This knowledge must be mapped by calling ISyncKnowledge::MapRemoteToLocal on the source knowledge before it can be used for change enumeration.ppSyncChangeBatch
[out] Returns a change batch that contains item metadata for items that are not contained in pSyncKnowledge.ppUnkDataRetriever
[out] Returns an object that can be used to retrieve change data. It can be an ISynchronousDataRetriever object or a provider-specific object.
Return Value
S_OK
Provider-determined error codes
Remarks
Be aware that dwBatchSize is a requested number only. A smaller or larger batch can be returned.
Notes for Implementers
If there are no more changes to send after this batch, ISyncChangeBatchBase::SetLastBatch must be called on the returned change batch. Otherwise, Sync Framework calls GetChangeBatch again to retrieve another batch of changes.
Example
The following examples are an implementation of GetChangeBatch. The first example shows how to get a batch of changes from a custom metadata store object and a data retriever interface from a custom item store object. The second example implements the m_pMetadataMgr->GetChangeBatch method that is called in the first example. This method enumerates all items in the metadata store and adds an item to the returned change batch if the item is not contained in the destination knowledge.
