SchedulerStorageBase.CreateOutlookExportSynchronizer() Method

Creates an object which allows you to control how MS Outlook’s Calendar is synchronized with data in the storage.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraScheduler

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraScheduler.v24.1.Core.Desktop.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Scheduler.CoreDesktop

Declaration

C#

public virtual AppointmentExportSynchronizer CreateOutlookExportSynchronizer()

VB.NET

Public Overridable Function CreateOutlookExportSynchronizer As AppointmentExportSynchronizer

Returns

Type	Description
AppointmentExportSynchronizer	A DevExpress.XtraScheduler.Exchange.AppointmentExportSynchronizer object which allows MS Outlook’s Calendar to be synchronized with the data in storage.

Remarks

The AppointmentSynchronizer object maintains an Outlook appointment identifier via the AppointmentSynchronizer.ForeignIdFieldName mapping. It provides the ability to accomplish synchronization instead of simple export and import operations (for which the AppointmentExporter and AppointmentImporter classes have been constructed).

You can synchronize the data in MS Outlook’s Calendar with the data from the storage using the SchedulerStorageBase.SynchronizeOutlookWithStorage method. After the data is synchronized, MS Outlook’s Calendar will contain a copy of the scheduler storage data.

Use the CreateOutlookExportSynchronizer method to control how data is synchronized. Call this method to create a DevExpress.XtraScheduler.Exchange.AppointmentExportSynchronizer object and subscribe to its events to control individual synchronization operations.
