public class SyncAppSkeleton

extends BasicAppSkeleton

This code can be used as a foundation for all stand-alone synchronization utilities. It can parse command-line parameters, or it can instead ask the parameters through a GUI. Once the parameters have been retrieved, it will establish a connection to the device and invoke the serviceDevice() method, which you will have to provide. The connection will be closed either after your code has finished its job, or after it has failed because of an Exception.

Method Detail

synchronizeDevice

public void synchronizeDevice(Link link)
                       throws java.lang.Exception

This method needs to be overwritten by your application. It will be invoked by the skeleton after all options have been parsed, and after a connection to the Palm device has been established.
You should use the supplied Link, and you should not try to close the connection yourself, since this will be done for you by the skeleton.

Parameters:

link - the open Link between the host and the Palm device

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - anything can go wrong

addFixedOptions

protected void addFixedOptions()

Overrides:

addFixedOptions in class BasicAppSkeleton

appMain

public void appMain()

Overrides:
