Introduction to Java Synchronization tutorial

This tutorial guides you through the basic steps for using Java synchronization logic. Using the CustDB sample as a SQL Anywhere consolidated database, you specify simple class methods for MobiLink table-level events. The process also involves running the MobiLink server (mlsrv11) with an option to set the path of compiled Java classes.

Required software

SQL Anywhere 11
Java Software Development Kit

Competencies and experience

You require:

familiarity with Java
basic knowledge of MobiLink event scripts

Goals

You gain competence and familiarity with:

using simple Java class methods for MobiLink table-level events

Key concepts

This section uses the following steps to implement basic Java-based synchronization using the MobiLink CustDB sample database:

compiling a source file with MobiLink server API references
specifying class methods for particular table-level events
running the MobiLink server (mlsrv11) with the -sl java option
testing synchronization with a sample Windows client application
