Deploying SQL Anywhere MobiLink clients

Notes
  • For SQL Anywhere clients, you need to deploy a SQL Anywhere database server and the MobiLink client.

    See Deploying databases and applications.

  • If you are redistributing MobiLink synchronization clients you need to include the following files in your installation, in addition to those required for the SQL Anywhere database.

  • When deploying the files below, place them in the same directory structure unless otherwise noted.

  • To deploy Sybase Central, see Deploying administration tools.

  • There is a deployment wizard for Windows. See Using the Deployment Wizard.

  • For Windows Mobile deployment, files that are listed below in the bin32 directories are located in the ce\arm.50 directory. .NET assemblies are placed in the ce\Assembly\v2 directory.

All directories are relative to install-dir.
