Overview
The TICDSDocumentRegistrationOperation
class describes a generic operation used by the TICoreDataSync
framework to register a document for future synchronization.
The operation carries out the following tasks:
- Subclass checks whether the
documentIdentifier
directory exists on the remote.- If not, ask the document sync manager whether to continue registering this document, and if not, bail, otherwise:
- Subclass creates the
documentIdentifier
directory on the remote, along with the general directory hierarchy. - Subclass saves the
documentInfo.plist
file at the root of the document hierarchy, encrypting it if necessary. - Continue by creating hierarchy for this client to synchronize this document.
- Subclass creates the
- If document has been registered before, subclass checks whether this client has synchronized this document before.
- If so, registration is complete.
- If not, continue by creating client’s directories for this document.
- If not, ask the document sync manager whether to continue registering this document, and if not, bail, otherwise:
- Subclass checks whether the client’s directory exists inside
SyncChanges
.- If so, registration is complete.
- If not, continue by creating client’s directories for this document.
- Subclass creates a directory for this client in this document’s
SyncChanges
andSyncCommands
directories.
Operations are typically created automatically by the relevant sync manager.
