download_statistics connection event

Tracks synchronization statistics for download operations.

Parameters

In the following table, the description provides the SQL data type. If you are writing your script in Java or .NET, you should use the appropriate corresponding data type. See SQL-Java data types and SQL-.NET data types.

In SQL scripts, you can specify event parameters by name or with a question mark, but you cannot mix names and question marks within a script. If you use question marks, the parameters must be in the order shown below and are optional only if no subsequent parameters are specified (for example, you must use parameter 1 if you want to use parameter 2). If you use named parameters, you can specify any subset of the parameters in any order.

Parameter name for SQL scripts

Description

Order

s.remote_id VARCHAR(128). The MobiLink remote ID. You can only reference the remote ID if you are using named parameters. Not applicable

s.username

VARCHAR(128). The MobiLink user name as specified in your SYNCHRONIZATION USER definition.

1

s.warnings

INTEGER. The number of warnings issued.

2

s.errors

INTEGER. The number of errors, including handled errors, that occurred.

3

s.fetched_rows

INTEGER. The number of rows fetched by the download_cursor script.

4

s.deleted_rows

INTEGER. The number of rows fetched by the download_delete_cursor script.

5

s.filtered_rows

INTEGER. The number of rows from the deleted_rows parameter actually sent to the remote. This reflects download filtering of uploaded values.

6

s.bytes

INTEGER. The number of bytes sent to the remote as the download.

7

Default action

None.

Remarks

The download_statistics event allows you to gather, for any user, statistics on downloads. The download_statistics connection script is called just prior to the commit at the end of the download transaction.

Note

Depending on the command line, not all warnings or errors are logged, so the warnings and errors counts may be more than the number of warnings or errors logged.

SQL example

The following example inserts synchronization statistics into a table called download_audit.

CALL ml_add_connection_script(
 'ver1', 
 'download_statistics', 
 'INSERT INTO download_audit(
   user_name, 
   warnings, 
   errors, 
   deleted_rows, 
   fetched_rows, 
   download_rows, 
   bytes )
  VALUES (
   {ml s.username}, 
   {ml s.warnings}, 
   {ml s.errors}, 
   {ml s.fetched_rows}, 
   {ml s.deleted_rows}, 
   {ml s.filtered_rows}, 
   {ml s.bytes})')

Once vital statistics are inserted into the audit table, you may use these statistics to monitor your synchronizations and make optimizations where applicable.

Java example

The following call to a MobiLink system procedure registers a Java method called downloadStatisticsConnection as the script for the download_statistics event when synchronizing the script version ver1.

CALL ml_add_java_connection_script(
  'ver1',
  'download_statistics',
  'ExamplePackage.ExampleClass.downloadStatisticsConnection' )

The following is the sample Java method downloadStatisticsConnection. It prints the number of fetched rows to the MobiLink message log. (Note that printing the number of fetched rows to the MobiLink message log might be useful at development time but would slow down a production server.)

public String downloadStatisticsConnection(
  String user,
  int warnings,
  int errors,
  int fetchedRows,
  int deletedRows,
  int bytes ) {
  java.lang.System.out.println( 
   "download connection stats fetchedRows: " 
   + fetchedRows );
  return ( null );
}
.NET example

The following call to a MobiLink system procedure registers a .NET method called DownloadStats as the script for the download_statistics connection event when synchronizing the script version ver1.

CALL ml_add_dnet_connection_script(
  'ver1',
  'download_statistics',
  'TestScripts.Test.DownloadStats'
)

The following is the sample .NET method DownloadStats. It prints the number of fetched rows to the MobiLink message log. (Note that printing the number of fetched rows to the MobiLink message log might be useful at development time but would slow down a production server.)

public string DownloadStats(
  string user,
  int warnings,
  int errors,
  int deletedRows,
  int fetchedRows,
  int downloadRows,
  int bytes ) {  
  System.Console.WriteLine( 
   "download connection stats fetchedRows: " 
   + fetchedRows );
  return ( null );
}
