Sync4J - II
5 May 2008Although the sync4j project has not actually published any source, it is still under active development.
The sync4j concept is a very well thought-through concept. It is still under development phase. It development plan is clearly laid out and it is believed that its toolkit will be available soon to develop cross-platform SyncML applications with Java.
To establish a standard and to proof that it is actually implementable the creator usually develops a reference implementation. For ISO standards this is even mandatory. To proof that it is actually practical to implement it, and to make it a standard, a reference toolkit (RTK) was published with a very unrestrictive license on the web site.
Just for you interest, the RTK is written in pure C. It does parsing of the XML commands and the creation of SyncML messages. This is equivalent to the core layer of sync4j. the basic transports are also implemented. Please note that you should have good knowledge of SyncML specifications if you want to use the RTK.
