8 Synchronization DataStoreGetTimeStamp(), DataStoreSetTimeStamp()
Record timestamping is important for synchronization and reconciliation of data between devices; between a portable device and a desktop PC, for example. Passing the FT_TIMESTAMP flag when creating a new datastore makes the first field a timestamp field. The DataStore Manager updates this field when the record has been modified.
You can read the data in the timestamp field by calling
DataStoreGetField()
and passing zero for the
FieldID
parameter and NULL for field name.
To retrieve the time and date a datastore was last changed, call
DataStoreGetTimeStamp()
. To modify a datastore's timestamp manually, call
DataStoreSetTimeStamp()
.
