Microsoft Synchronization Services for ADO.NET Books Online Beta 1

Updates 1499 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Synchronization Services lets you synchronize data from disparate sources over two-tier, N-tier, and service-based architectures. Instead of only replicating a database and its schema, the Synchronization Services application programming interface (API) provides a set of components to synchronize data between data services and a local store. Applications are increasingly used on mobile clients, such as portable computers and devices, that do not have a consistent or reliable network connection to a central server. It is important for these applications to work against a local copy of data on the client. Equally important is the need to synchronize the local copy of the data with a central server when a network connection is available. The Synchronization Services API is modeled after the ADO.NET data access APIs and gives you an intuitive way to synchronize data. It makes building applications for occasionally connected environments a logical extension of building applications where you can depend on a consistent network connection.

Project 2007 SDK: Software Development Kit

Updates 1499 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

The Microsoft Office Project 2007 SDK is a release for solution providers, value-added resellers, and other developers to learn about the new Project Server 2007 platform, and how to extend and integrate Project Server 2007 with other applications for enterprise project management (EPM). It features conceptual and "How to" articles, sample code, and programming references.

The download file for the Project 2007 SDK is updated from the RTM SDK download. The pj12ProjectSDK.exe download includes two HTML Help files: PJSDK2007.chm (conceptual topics and managed code reference), and pj12ReportingDB.chm (the Reporting Database Schema reference). OLAPCubeSchemas.xls is a Microsoft Office Excel file that lists the dimensions, measures, and properties of the 14 Project Server OLAP cubes. Additional references include the default Project Guide files and the XML schemas for Project 2007 and the ChangeXML parameter for Statusing methods in the Project Server Interface (PSI).

The Project Portfolio Server 2007 schemas include the AccountData and AccountIndex database references. For more information, see the Project Portfolio Server 2007 Developer Reference.

The download also includes the following complete sample projects that relate to topics in the SDK: ChangeXML Utility, Custom Web Parts, two Impersonation samples, Login Demo, OLP Example, Project Workspace, ProjTool (a tool with source code for testing and development), PSI Extensions, Report Pack, and Test Event Handler. The sample projects use Microsoft Visual C# and Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. The seven Report Pack samples use Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services.
You can also view the Project 2007 SDK online in the MSDN Library.
