Sync DB between Windows Mobile and MySQL

[Panagiotis Peikidis]

Hello everyone,

as the title suggests, I am trying to create a Windows Mobile
application that contains a local database cache which synchronizes
with a central database server. The database already exists and it's a
MySQL hosted in a linux server.

I am trying to figure out how to do this with the new Microsoft Sync
Framework but I am failing miserably. I have so many questions.

First of all, I am trying to follow this walkthrough:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc488004.aspx

I cannot find the service as noted in section "Adding a Web reference
from the project to the WCF service". I successfully run the service
as instructed previously but there is nothing in http://localhost:4837/etcetc..

Anyway, my first question is: Is this middle tier thing in the
walkthrough a web service? If so, I probably can't use this in the
linux server. So, what do I do?

Hey,

Have you figured it out?

I'm in a similar position and for the moment I'm considering doing the synchronization manually through TCPClient connected to a socket server that will actually do most of the work.

Client caches data locally and whenever it has connectivity it pushes data to central server for input into main database.
