MetaDataItem Property (SynchronizationMetaDataEventArgs)


Xceed.Synchronization Assembly > Xceed.Synchronization Namespace > SynchronizationMetaDataEventArgs Class : MetaDataItem Property
Gets or sets the Xceed.FileSystem.FileSystemItem object representing a meta data item.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property MetaDataItem As FileSystemItem
'Usage
 
Dim instance As SynchronizationMetaDataEventArgs

Dim value As FileSystemItem

 

instance.MetaDataItem = value

 

value = instance.MetaDataItem
public FileSystemItem MetaDataItem {get; set;}
Remarks

The meta data represents the last synchronization date (the last write date of the synchronization's master file) and the master file checksum map (a list of checksums computed from the data blocks of the master file).

The use of meta data is optional. However, when doing repeated synchronizations on the same date, meta data can be very useful. For example, if a file is found that is modified after the last synchronization date, but is not selected as the master file, overwriting it would result in a loss of the modifications in that file.

Requirements
