INotifyingChangeApplierTarget.GetNextTickCount Method

When overridden in a derived class, increments the tick count and returns the new tick count.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Synchronization
Assembly:  Microsoft.Synchronization (in Microsoft.Synchronization.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Function GetNextTickCount As ULong
'Usage
Dim instance As INotifyingChangeApplierTarget
Dim returnValue As ULong

returnValue = instance.GetNextTickCount()

ulong GetNextTickCount()

unsigned long long GetNextTickCount()

abstract GetNextTickCount : unit -> uint64 

function GetNextTickCount() : ulong

Return Value

Type: System.UInt64
The newly incremented tick count.

Remarks

Tick counts must be monotonically increasing.

Notes to Implementers

To ensure that the tick count is always increasing, a provider that represents a FeedSync feed must obtain the current tick count by calling FeedSyncServices.GetNextTickCount and return a value equal to or greater than the value returned by this method.
