SimpleSyncProvider.UpdateItem Method
When overridden in a derived class, called by the Sync Framework runtime to update an item in the destination store.

public abstract function UpdateItem(

changeUnitsToUpdate : IEnumerable<SyncId>,
keyAndExpectedVersion : ItemFieldDictionary,
recoverableErrorReportingContext : RecoverableErrorReportingContext,
keyAndUpdatedVersion : ItemFieldDictionary,
commitKnowledgeAfterThisItem : boolean
)
Parameters
- itemData
Type: System.Object
Data for the item in provider-specific format.
- changeUnitsToUpdate
Type: System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<SyncId>
A SyncId object that contains the change units to update for an item. The parameter should be null (not empty) if no change units are specified.
- keyAndExpectedVersion
Type: Microsoft.Synchronization.SimpleProviders.ItemFieldDictionary
The key and expected version properties of the item to be updated. The provider must perform an optimistic concurrency check to verify that the version of the item on the destination corresponds to the values found in keyAndExpectedVersion. If this check fails, provider should report a recoverable error by using a RecoverableErrorReportingContext object.
- recoverableErrorReportingContext
Type: Microsoft.Synchronization.SimpleProviders.RecoverableErrorReportingContext
A RecoverableErrorReportingContext object that is used to report recoverable errors that occur during attempts to update an item.
- keyAndUpdatedVersion
Type: Microsoft.Synchronization.SimpleProviders.ItemFieldDictionary%
Returns the key and updated version properties of the updated items. If the return value is not valid, the Sync Framework runtime throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException, which ends the session.
- commitKnowledgeAfterThisItem
Type: System.Boolean%
Returns whether the Sync Framework runtime should commit knowledge to the metadata store after processing is complete for the specified item.
Remarks
After Sync Framework has detected and loaded changes from the source, it must apply those changes and corresponding metadata changes to the destination replica. Metadata changes at the destination are handled by Sync Framework, but applying data changes is store-specific and is handled by implementing the following methods: DeleteItem, InsertItem, and UpdateItem.
Examples
The following code example shows an implementation of this method that applies updates to an in-memory sample data store. ItemTransfer is a simple transfer mechanism that is used when changes are loaded from the source and applied to the destination. To view this code in the context of a complete application, see the "Sync101 using Simple Sync Provider" application that is available in the Sync Framework SDK and from Code Gallery.
