Offline app support

[Simon]

In the test app that is generated from the latest Q2 Phone drop, there doesn't seem to be any indication for how you could run an app in "offline" mode, it appears on-line only is all that is available.

Tried looking for documentation on the API but cannot find any (although there is a bit in the Everlive site)

Hi Simon,

Thanks for writing and for your feedback.

The SynchronizationContext exposes the AddAsync and DeleteAsync methods. These do not require Internet connection to work - you can use them anytime.

The SynchronizationContext.SynchronizeAsync method initiates a Synchronization procedure which requires Internet connection.

It seems that we need to extend our online help regarding this topic.

Let us know should you have further questions or need assistance.

Right, I'll have a look in to that.

BTW, where is the library / help documentation for the Sync Framework.  I was unable to find any and it's not listed in the Library API docs for the Q2 release

I am writing new content regarding the Online vs. Offline usage of the framework as we speak.
