Sync Manager
Account

The Sync Manager API helps applications in scheduling their data sync operations.

Required Header

#include <sync_manager.h>

Overview

The Sync Manager provides APIs for managing the sync operations. Applications will call these APIs to schedule their sync operations. Sync Manager maintains sync requests from all the applications and invokes their respective callback methods to perform data synchronization operations.

Functions

int sync_manager_on_demand_sync_job (account_h account, const char *sync_job_name, sync_option_e sync_option, bundle *sync_job_user_data, int *sync_job_id)
 Requests Sync Manager to perform one time sync operation.
int sync_manager_add_periodic_sync_job (account_h account, const char *sync_job_name, sync_period_e sync_period, sync_option_e sync_option, bundle *sync_job_user_data, int *sync_job_id)
 Requests Sync Manager to perform periodic sync operations.
int sync_manager_add_data_change_sync_job (account_h account, const char *sync_capability, sync_option_e sync_option, bundle *sync_job_user_data, int *sync_job_id)
 Requests Sync Manager to perform sync operations whenever corresponding DB changed.
int sync_manager_remove_sync_job (int sync_job_id)
 Requests Sync Manager to remove corresponding sync job id.
int sync_manager_foreach_sync_job (sync_manager_sync_job_cb sync_job_cb, void *user_data)
 Requests Sync Manager to query corresponding sync request.

Typedefs

typedef bool(* sync_manager_sync_job_cb )(account_h account, const char *sync_job_name, const char *sync_capability, int sync_job_id, bundle *sync_job_user_data, void *user_data)
 Called to get the information once for each sync job.
