Remarks

The TransSynchronizationAgent class supports the ability to programmatically synchronize subscriptions to transactional or snapshot publications.

Examples

In the following example, the Synchronize method is called on the instance of the TransSynchronizationAgent class that is accessed from the SynchronizationAgent property to synchronize the push subscription.

         // Define the server, publication, and database names.
            string subscriberName = subscriberInstance;
            string publisherName = publisherInstance;
            string publicationName = "AdvWorksProductTran";
            string subscriptionDbName = "AdventureWorks2012Replica";
            string publicationDbName = "AdventureWorks2012";

            // Create a connection to the Publisher.
            ServerConnection conn = new ServerConnection(publisherName);

            TransSubscription subscription;

            try
            {
                // Connect to the Publisher.
                conn.Connect();

                // Define the push subscription.
                subscription = new TransSubscription();
                subscription.ConnectionContext = conn;
                subscription.DatabaseName = publicationDbName;
                subscription.PublicationName = publicationName;
                subscription.SubscriptionDBName = subscriptionDbName;
                subscription.SubscriberName = subscriberName;

                // If the push subscription exists, start the synchronization.
                if (subscription.LoadProperties())
                {
                    // Check that we have enough metadata to start the agent.
                    if (subscription.SubscriberSecurity != null)
                    {
                        // Synchronously start the Distribution Agent for the subscription.
                        subscription.SynchronizationAgent.Synchronize();
                    }
                    else

                    }
                }
                else
                {
                    // Do something here if the push subscription does not exist.
                    throw new ApplicationException(String.Format(
                        "The subscription to '{0}' does not exist on {1}",
                        publicationName, subscriberName));
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {

                throw new ApplicationException("The subscription could not be synchronized.", ex);
            }
            finally
            {
                conn.Disconnect();
            }
' Define the server, publication, and database names.
Dim subscriberName As String = subscriberInstance
Dim publisherName As String = publisherInstance
Dim publicationName As String = "AdvWorksProductTran"
Dim subscriptionDbName As String = "AdventureWorks2012Replica"
Dim publicationDbName As String = "AdventureWorks2012"

' Create a connection to the Publisher.

Dim subscription As TransSubscription

Try
    ' Connect to the Publisher.
    conn.Connect()

    ' Define the push subscription.
    subscription = New TransSubscription()
    subscription.ConnectionContext = conn

    subscription.PublicationName = publicationName

    If subscription.LoadProperties() Then
        ' Check that we have enough metadata to start the agent.
        If Not subscription.SubscriberSecurity Is Nothing Then

            subscription.SynchronizationAgent.Synchronize()
        Else
            Throw New ApplicationException("There is insufficent metadata to " + _
             "synchronize the subscription. Recreate the subscription with " + _
             "the agent job or supply the required agent properties at run time.")
        End If
    Else
        ' Do something here if the push subscription does not exist.
        Throw New ApplicationException(String.Format( _
         "The subscription to '{0}' does not exist on {1}", _
         publicationName, subscriberName))
    End If
Catch ex As Exception
    ' Implement appropriate error handling here.
    Throw New ApplicationException("The subscription could not be synchronized.", ex)
Finally
    conn.Disconnect()
End Try

Thread Safety

The TransSynchronizationAgent class does not support multithreaded apartments. You can specify a single-threaded apartment by declaring the [STAThread] attribute on the method that is the main entry point for the application. This is the default for Microsoft Windows-based applications that are created by using Microsoft Visual Studio.
