Develop a custom file sync provider over file transfer WCF service

Question

I'm trying to develop a custom sync provider to sync files over the internet using WCF service.

We already have a file transfer service and it's working in production but I need to implement a custom sync provider on top of it. I've checked the solution in Braynt Likes blog here but this doesn't fulfill my needs.

Any advices, guidance, or sample code to help is really appreciated?

My advice is not to write custom code when there are powerful products available, especially if they're free.

Have a look at the Microsoft Sync Framework. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sync/bb821992.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sync/default.aspx

I kinda think that's what the OP is asking about - the article he links to show how to create a custom provider for the MS Sync Framework, and he has a tag "syncframework" - so I guess that what he's after – Refugio
