Class SyncToken

java.lang.Object

org.identityconnectors.framework.common.objects.SyncToken

public final class SyncToken
extends Object

Abstract "place-holder" for synchronization. The application must not make any attempt to interpret the value of the token. From the standpoint of the application the token is merely a black-box. The application may only persist the value of the token for use on subsequent synchronization requests.

What this token represents is entirely connector-specific. On some connectors this might be a last-modified value. On others, it might be a unique ID of a log table entry. On others such as JMS, this might be a dummy value since JMS itself keeps track of the state of the sync.
