Building and Running SimpleStickies

Build and run the SimpleStickies application to create some sample content for this tutorial.

1. Open SimpleStickies.xcode, located in the StickiesExample/Examples/SimpleStickies1_TrickleSyncing folder.

2. Click Build and Go in Xcode to launch the application.

SimpleStickies registers the Stickies schema and the SimpleStickies client. You can examine these changes to the state of the sync engine using Syncrospector.

Viewing Sync Clients

You can use Syncrospector to see if your client successfully registered with the sync engine.

1. Launch Syncrospector, located in the StickiesExample/Applications folder.

2. Select Clients from the left-side pull-down menu to see the registered clients.

   You should see SimpleStickies listed as one of the registered clients. Most of the client properties displayed by Syncrospector (described in Table 1)are set in the client description property list.
