- mobile application is working using self .sdf database but from time to time it connects to SQL Server and do some synchronization (synch or asynch, really doesn't matter). But, when there is no network connection (broken, suspended, wifi broken etc.) I have to create an option - Pocket PC will land into cradle and I have to synch all changes made in SDF and SQL Server using ActiveSync (or something like that - via USB).
So my question is : is there any simple mechanism to do this? Or I have to write some Active Sync manager which will be dealing with my replication? (pretty hard to do). Awaiting answer - Maciej Wysocki.
PS. I am using Windows CE 3.0 but I can setup Windows Mobile 5.0 too, I am just wondering if there is any chance to make this type of synch. working.
The merge replication over ActiveSync works since it uses http/https and ActiveSync provides pass thru http connections. You do not have to write anything for ActiveSync. Just cradle the device and try to sync it should work.If you have any problems, let me know, we can try to figure it out

|||Ok. Thanks for reply. I wanna know one more thing which I really need. Is there any chance to fire synchronization everytime when Pocket PC is put into cradle? I know that I can create a thread ( http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=596053&SiteID=1 ) with checking section, but it's not good solution (every new thread = less performance). So putting Pocket into cradle fires any event? Thanks in advance. Maciej WysockiPS. If getting Pocket out of cradle is detectable too I will be glad to get to know how can I check it.
