SQL Anywhere clients for MobiLink

Any SQL Anywhere database can be used as a remote database in a MobiLink system.

Use the dbmlsync utility to synchronize SQL Anywhere remote databases with a consolidated database. To run dbmlsync you must have the SYS_RUN_REPLICATION_ROLE system privilege.

Extended options can be specified on the dbmlsync command line using the -e or -eu options, or they can be stored in the database.

The following are the SQL statements used for configuring and running MobiLink SQL Anywhere clients:

Synchronization profiles allow you to place some dbmlsync options in the database. The synchronization profile you create can contain a variety of synchronizations options.

The SQL Anywhere synchronization client, dbmlsync, provides an optional set of event hooks that you can use to customize the synchronization process. When a hook is implemented, it is called at a specific point in the synchronization process.

The Dbmlsync C++ API provides a programming interface that allows MobiLink client applications written in C++ to launch synchronizations and receive feedback about the progress of the synchronizations they request.

The Dbmlsync .NET API provides a programming interface that allows MobiLink client applications written in .NET to launch synchronizations and receive feedback about the progress of the synchronizations they request.

Database tools (DBTools) is a library you can use to integrate database management, including synchronization, into your applications. All the database management utilities are built on DBTools.

Scripted upload applies only to MobiLink applications that use SQL Anywhere remote databases.
