    MetaDataItem Property (SynchronizationMetaDataEventArgs)
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets the Xceed.FileSystem.FileSystemItem object representing a meta data item.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Property MetaDataItem As FileSystemItem
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As SynchronizationMetaDataEventArgs
    Dim value As FileSystemItem
     
    instance.MetaDataItem = value
     
    value = instance.MetaDataItem
    public FileSystemItem MetaDataItem {get; set;}
    Remarks

    The meta data represents the last synchronization date (the last write date of the synchronization's master file) and the master file checksum map (a list of checksums computed from the data blocks of the master file).

    The use of meta data is optional. However, when doing repeated synchronizations on the same date, meta data can be very useful. For example, if a file is found that is modified after the last synchronization date, but is not selected as the master file, overwriting it would result in a loss of the modifications in that file.
