The TSI Synchronizer, build 2701 (release
version), is an ActiveX DLL that gives you programmatic access to many replication
features that were previously not available, or available only through tools like the
Briefcase Reconciler for Replication or the Microsoft Replication Manager.
 Trigeminal Software, Inc.
Some of the things that it allows you to do:
- Get and set the retention period programmatically (and without Replication Manager)
- Do indirect synchronizations programmatically (and without Replication Manager)
- Perform synchronizations with status events so you can implement progress meters
- Get history information about synchronizations programmatically (and without Replication
Manager)
- Create new replicas with status events so you can implement progress meters
- Manage Synchronizers, getting and setting both what replicas are managed by a
Synchronizer and what schedules exist for those replicas
- View information about replicas in the replica set that cannot easily be gotten
elsewhere
- Set all the miscellaneous Synchronizer properties programmatically (and without
Replication Manager)
- Using VB6 or later, where CreateObject takes an optional second parameter that
represents as server name, you can use remotely manage Synchronizers on multiple machines,
by creating an ActiveX EXE that uses the TSI Synchronizer object..
- Various fun things that are completely unsupported and undocumented, but are encouraged
nevertheless.
