Adding Custom Property To Custom Component
Aug 17, 2005What I want to accomplish is that at design time the designer can enter a value for some custom property on my custom task and that this value is accessed at executing time.

View 10 RepliesHi,
I'm trying to enable Expression for a custom property in my custom data flow component.
Here is the code I wrote to declare the custom property:
public override void ProvideComponentProperties()
{
ComponentMetaData.RuntimeConnectionCollection.RemoveAll();
RemoveAllInputsOutputsAndCustomProperties();
IDTSCustomProperty90 prop = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
prop.Name = "MyProperty";
prop.Description = "My property description";
prop.Value = string.Empty;
prop.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;
...
}
In design mode, I can assign an expression to my custom property, but it get evaluated in design mode and not in runtime
Here is my expression (a file name based on a date contained in a user variable):
"DB" + (DT_WSTR, 4)YEAR( @[User::varCurrentDate] ) + RIGHT( "0" + (DT_WSTR, 2)MONTH( @[User::varCurrentDate] ), 2 ) + "\" + (DT_WSTR, 4)YEAR( @[User::varCurrentDate] ) + RIGHT( "0" + (DT_WSTR, 2)MONTH( @[User::varCurrentDate] ), 2 ) + ".VER"
@[User::varCurrentDate] is a DateTime variable and is assign to 0 at design time
So the expression is evaluated as: "DB189912189912.VER".
My package contains 2 data flow.
At runtime,
The first one is responsible to set a valid date in @[User::varCurrentDate] variable. (the date is 2007-01-15)
The second one contains my custom data flow component with my custom property that was set to an expression at design time
When my component get executed, my custom property value is still "DB189912189912.VER" and I expected "DB200701200701.VER"
Any idea ?
I have set a validation error when changing a property in the advanced editor. Unfortunately this validation error is only displayed when you change tabs or press the ok button in the editor.
I have tried calling the validate method within the setcomponentproperty method but the error only show up when ok button is pressed or tab in editor.
I don't want to throw an exception, is there any way you can show a validation error immediately once the user has clicked away / entered / clicked to another property field after entering a property value in the advanced editor that is incorrect.
Thanks
Hi,
I was trying the SSIS programming samples,that comes with installation of SQL Server 2005, I want to load the ChangeCase DLL in the toolbox.
The readMe file gives the direction. It does not work. It says you will see component in once you see DataFlow Task button( clicking Choose Items in the tools box).
I cannot load the custom component to the toolbox, Can I get some help.
Thank you,
Hi,
I am building a custom component have a IDTSCustomProperty90 property that can take the value 'True' or 'False'.
Depending on its setting, I want to include (or not include) a column in the output.
Any advice on how to go about doing this (with some sample code) would be much appreciated!
Here's how I'm declaring the property in ProvideComponentProperties()
IDTSCustomProperty90 IncludeErrorDesc = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
IncludeErrorDesc.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NONE;
IncludeErrorDesc.Name = "Some Name";
IncludeErrorDesc.TypeConverter = typeof(Boolean).AssemblyQualifiedName;
IncludeErrorDesc.Value = Convert.ToBoolean(false);
Thanks in advance

I'm building a custom transform component. I want to mark some input columns as keys for deduplicating. In a similar way to the provided Sort component, I want to check those columns and allow pass-throughs (or not) for the others - so next to each input column name I need two checkboxes (1:use for dedupe; 2:include in output if 1 not checked). If a column is checked for use in the dedupe, I want some other attributes to be shown indicating how it will be used. How do I display the checkboxes to let users select which columns to include for deduplication, and then how do I add further attributes underneath (copying the Sort component's look) for selection?
Thanks in advance for guidance and pointers on this.
Hi all,
I saw a couple of other posts here on this topic, but none quite got to my issue.
I'm trying to add error output to a custom source component (not a script, a custom component). The samples all seem to deal with transform components, and my issues seem to be unique to source components.
I have the following code related to error handling ...
Public Overloads Overrides Sub ProvideComponentProperties()
...
Dim output As IDTSOutput90 = ComponentMetaData.OutputCollection.New
output.Name = OUTPUTCOLUMNNAME
output.ExternalMetadataColumnCollection.IsUsed = True
ComponentMetaData.UsesDispositions = True
output.ErrorRowDisposition = DTSRowDisposition.RD_NotUsed
output.ErrorOrTruncationOperation = "Something got truncated or blew up"
Dim errorOutput As IDTSOutput90 = ComponentMetaData.OutputCollection.New
errorOutput.Name = ERRORCOLUMNNAME
errorOutput.IsErrorOut = True
...
End Sub
Public Overloads Overrides Sub ReinitializeMetaData()
Dim output As IDTSOutput90 = ComponentMetaData.OutputCollection(OUTPUTCOLUMNNAME)
Dim outColumn As IDTSOutputColumn90 = output.OutputColumnCollection.New
outColumn.Name = strName
outColumn.SetDataTypeProperties(DataType.DT_I4, 0, 0, 0, 0)
Dim metadataColumn As IDTSExternalMetadataColumn90 = output.ExternalMetadataColumnCollection.New
metadataColumn.Name = outColumn.Name
metadataColumn.DataType = outColumn.DataType
metadataColumn.Precision = outColumn.Precision
metadataColumn.Length = outColumn.Length
metadataColumn.Scale = outColumn.Scale
metadataColumn.CodePage = outColumn.CodePage
outColumn.ExternalMetadataColumnID = metadataColumn.ID
outColumn.ErrorRowDisposition = DTSRowDisposition.RD_NotUsed
outColumn.ErrorOrTruncationOperation = "Something Truncated!"
outColumn.TruncationRowDisposition = DTSRowDisposition.RD_NotUsed
Dim errorOutput As IDTSOutput90 = ComponentMetaData.OutputCollection(ERRORCOLUMNNAME)
Dim errorColumn As IDTSOutputColumn90 = errorOutput.OutputColumnCollection.New
errorColumn.Name = outColumn.Name
errorColumn.SetDataTypeProperties(DataType.DT_I4, 0, 0, 0, 0)
...
End Sub
The confusions I have are:
a) the stock advanced properties editor (I haven't provided a custom one) doesn't seem to "realize" that I have an error output, so provides no method to configure. I am believing it would need to know which Output columns can have their error/truncation redirected. I'd have thought setting ErrorRowDisposition on my output column would have been enough to trigger this ??
b) since I don't have any means of configuring, not surprisingly, when I try to connect my error output, designer complains that, "Ths error output cannot receive any error rows. This occurs for several reasons: Input columns or output columns are not yet defined. Error handling is not supported by the component. Error handling is not configured for the component."
c) UsesDispoistions would seem to be appropriate only for a transform component
Thanks for reading, and appreciate any help or pointers.

A month or so ago I instigated this thread- http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=243117&SiteID=1 which talked about how to conditionally add a column to my component depending on the value of a custom property. If the custom property is TRUE then the column should appear in the output (and vice versa).
Bob Bojanic said I should use the SetComponentProperty() method to do this and that is working pretty well. However, it bothers me that SetComponentProperty() could be called, the column will then be added, and then the package developer could press 'Cancel'. In this instance the value of my custom property would be inconsistent with the presence of the extra column.
How do you get around that?
Thanks

Hi All,
I am new to SSIS. I am working in adding SSIS components programmatically. I have added Data flow task, Lookup transformation, OLEDB Source and OLEDB Destination.
Now, i am facing problems in adding Custom Script tranformation component programatically. Please help me out.
Venkatesh.
Hi,
I've created a Custom Data Flow Component and added some Custom Properties.
I want the user to set the contents using an expression. I did some research and come up with the folowing:
Code Snippet
IDTSCustomProperty90 SourceTableProperty = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
SourceTableProperty.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;
SourceTableProperty.Name = "SourceTable";
But it doesn't work, if I enter @[System:ackageName] in the field. It comes out "@[System:ackageName]" instead of the actual package name.
I'm also unable to find how I can tell the designer to show the Expression editor. I would like to see the elipses (...) next to my field.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
I am writing a custom task that has some custom properties. I would like to parameterize these properties i.e. read from a varaible, so I can change these variables from a config file during runtime.
I read the documentation and it says if we set the ExpressionType to CPET_NOTIFY, it should work, but it does not seem to work. Not sure if I am missing anything. Can someone please help me?
This is what I did in the custom task
customProperty.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;
In the Editor of my custom task, under custom properties section, I expected a button with 3 dots, to click & pop-up so we can specify the expression or at least so it evaluates the variables if we give @[User::VaraibleName]
Any help on this will be very much appreciated.
Thanks
1) We are writing a custome Source component for Oracle with OCI calls, Could some one please let me know how to Enable Error Handling for the Same,
2) Is it possible to write Custome Error Handeling Component for SSIS? if yes could you please help me on how to write it.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I developed a simple custom control flow component which has several read/write properties and one readonly property (lets call it ROP) whichs Get method simple returns the value of a private variable (VAR as string). In the Execute method the VAR has a value assigened. When I put the value of ROP or VAR into MsgBox I can see the correct value. However when I execute the component I can not see the value of the ROP in the property window. I see the property but its value is empty string. For example when I put a breakpoint to postexecute or check the property before click OK in a MsgBox I would expect that the property value would be updated in SSIS as well. Is there a way how to display correct values of custom tasks properties in property window?
Thanks for any hints.
Hi all
I'm into a project which uses a lot of views for joining 2 or more tables. Using the MERGE component in SSIS will be a huge effort coz it only has 2 inputs and I gotta SORT the input too.
Isnt it possible to have a VIEW like component that joins more than 2 tables and DOESNT need sorting??
(I've thought about creating views in database engine but it breaks my data floe in SSIS and is'nt a practical solution)
Hi,
I am creating a custom transformation component, and a custom user interface for that component.
In
my custom UI, I want to show the custom properties, and allow users to
edit these properties similar to how the advanced editor shows the
properties.
I know in my UI I need to create a "Property Grid".
In
the properties of this grid, I can select the object I want to display
data for, however, the only objects that appear are the objects that I
have already created within this UI, and not the actual component
object with the custom properties.
How do I go about getting the properties for my transformation component listed in this property grid?
I am writing in C#.
I am writing a custom dataflow transformation component and I need to get the name of the preceeding component.
I have been trying to find a way to get a reference to the Package object, MainPipe object or IDTSPath90 object (connecting to the IDTSInput90 of my component) from my component because I think from there I can get to the information I want.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
TIA . . . Ed
I have a custom transform, with a custom property of value 1. My question is, can I change that value during runtime with the value from a variable?
Thanks
Is there any way to provide a readonly custom property in the ProvideComponentProperties() method of a custom PipelineComponent implementation?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI wrote a custom task following the outline on MSDN. I signed it and installed it into the Tasks folder and in the GAC.
When I go to an SSIS project and add my task, the properties window shows "Could not get value for property 'd61935d9-430b-4c93-9f3e-a29f720d8659'. Specified cast is not valid." (where the guid is different obviously) for many of the properties.
What have I done wrong?
Update: I know this isn't my code because I tried a simple task that just returns success and doesn't do anything. I get the exact same errors, so I must be installing it incorrectly.
Hi all,
I'm wondering if anyone's accomplished this before - I've been unable to find a whiff of info on how to do this so far.
I'm creating a custom component that I'd like to give a "Derived Column" type of ability to. By that, I mean I'd like to populate a property of my component with an expression (including references to input columns, package variables and functions) and be able to evaluate it at runtime - per row processed by the component.
I would also appreciate any information as to how to provide the interface to allow the user to build such an expression as well - is there a UI function in SSIS I can call to pop up the "expression builder"?
Thanks!
I'd like to be able to hold onto lineageIDs in a list in the custom property of an output object. I found that I can really only easily use an array which is fine but now that I have coded it I cannot set any of the array values programatically. I can't even initialize the array the way I want it. I also cannot change the value in the debugger, it just pops back to zero.
Am I missing something? Here's how I'm trying to do it:
IDTSCustomProperty90 linIDsProperty = output.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
linIDsProperty.Name = "KeyColumnLineageIDs";
linIDsProperty.Value = new int[MAX_KEY_COLS];
for (int i = 0; i < ((int[])linIDsProperty.Value).Length; ++i)
((int[])linIDsProperty.Value)[i] = -1;
(please ignore the \ around the [i], the forum changes [i] into for some reason)
Thanks
Charlie.
Hi Folks,
I have a task I wrote which does not always update the property value (as seen in the properties pane)
Basically, change something on the form, then update the task host property with:
this.taskHostValue.Properties["Duration"].SetValue(this.taskHostValue, Convert.ToInt32(spnDuration.Value));
Stepping through this, it does exactly what it is supposed to. Having a look at the property value, it confirms it has changed.
Reopening the UI and resetting all the controls returns the expected results.
The package however does not realise it has changed. There is no * next to the package name in the top tabs.
As long as the package thinks it is unchanged, SaveXML does not get called either so the tasks do not persist.
Changing the value on the properties pane works fine though.
The frustrating thing is this is slightly random. Slight in the sense that sometimes it works but most of the time it does not.
The sample code I used was the MS download IncrementTask (Which works BTW) so I can't see it as being a VS / SSIS bug but rather something I am / am not doing. 3 tasks I have written all behave the same. I have to "nudge" them before savign the package.
Any ideas what the problem might be?
TIA
Cheers,
Crispin
Im working through the MS example of "removeDuplicates". I cant seem to figure out how to add custom property for input column.
I added the helper method:
private static void AddIsKeyCustomPropertyToInput(IDTSInput90 input, object value)
{
IDTSCustomProperty90 isKey = input.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
isKey.Name = "IsKey";
isKey.Value = value;
}
I call it from:
public override void ProvideComponentProperties()
{
//...
AddIsKeyCustomPropertyToInput(input, false);
//...
}
public override void ReinitializeMetaData()
{
IDTSInput90 input = ComponentMetaData.InputCollection[0];
if (input.CustomPropertyCollection.Count == 0)
{
AddIsKeyCustomPropertyToInput(input, false);
}
// ...
}
However when I deployed it and added the component to SSIS package - I cant see the Custom Column "IsKey" in the input column properties window.
What am I missing - please help
Hi
I am writing a custom transformation component that utilises a user variable.
Before using the variable at run time I am checking that the variable exists, but it would be nice to be able to add it if it does not. I cannot find any documentation on the subject, though I can see that the Variables class is derived from a ReadOnlyCollectionBase.
Is there a way to add a user variable with package scope from a custom component, either at run time or design time?
Thanks . . . Ed
I've run into this a second time now. I'm hoping for some resolution AND guidance for proper build, save, etc. protocols in BIDS.
I've coded a custom component, included post-build procedures to add it to the GAC, selected it from the "Choose Items..." menu, and successfully added to a data flow. I've then been able to succesfully debug it.
This was all Friday afternoon. I shut down my BIDS session(s) and called it a week. This morning when I open BIDS, I get the following error when I attempt to add it to a data flow task:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio------------------------------The component could not be added to the Data Flow task.Could not initialize the component. There is a potential problem in the ProvideComponentProperties method.------------------------------ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:Error at Data Flow Task [DTS.Pipeline]: Component "component "" (16)" could not be created and returned error code 0x80131600. Make sure that the component is registered correctly.------------------------------Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0048021 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)------------------------------BUTTONS:OK------------------------------
What would explain this? I'm new to VS/BIDS. Am I improperly shutting down my BIDS sessions? Is a save required for my code? Does "Build <component>" not automatically save?
Also, when I re-build a component after making a change to it, what do I need to do in my package's Data Flow task? Delete the current component, re-add it, and configure it again? I'm sure there are certain things that require one type of re-initialization vs. others (i.e., making a change to the Design Time code vs. making a change to code within the ProcessInput method.)
What can I do to properly register this now? I'm dead in the water and have no idea what to do. Any help's appreciated.
Hi
I developed a €śdata flow source€? in my computer and it is ready!
It works in my computer, but how do I deploy this component in to the server? I have any programming environment on it.
Any Idea?
Hi
in the acquireconnection method Using the below statment I can get a connection Object
oledbConnection = cmado.AcquireConnection(transaction) as OleDbConnection;
from the connection object I can get the connectionstring from the object by calling
oledbConnection.connectionstring() property which will have all the details like DataBase, UserName & other Inofrmation but there is no password Info.
How to get the password Information, I need that information since I will use that info to make OCI calls to fetch the data from the Oracle database in m,y custome source component.
any help is much appriciated
thanks in advance.
Hi,I have developed a custom source component to get data from a generic odbc connection with some special caracteristics.
The component works fine by getting and mapping the output fields etc...
The only two problems existing are that when i run the task it says that the data flow has no components inside... how is this possible since i have my source mapped to a flat file inside that data flow?
This is the error:
SSIS package "BVEIT000D.dtsx" starting.
Warning: 0x80047034 at BVEIT000D_<EMPRESA> TXT, DTS.Pipeline: The DataFlow task has no components. Add components or remove the task.
Information: 0x4004300C at BVEIT000D_<EMPRESA> TXT, DTS.Pipeline: Execute phase is beginning.
SSIS package "BVEIT000D.dtsx" finished: Success.
The other problem is that if i want to <ignore> a certain source column the component already shows me an error saying that the no column with ID 0 was found...
Any one with experience in creating custom components?

Hi huys,
can you tell me how you create a MSI file for your custom component.
basically i've created a SSIS custom component, and i want to distiribute among a few people, i guess instead of providing step by step instructions it would be easy if they just clicked on packaged msi file.
i've seen many people putting their custom components on the web as MSI, how do you do it?
cheers
Does anyone know how to get destination coulmns to show up in the advanced editor for a custom component? I have a custom flat file destination component that builds the output based on a specific layout. It works as long as the upstream column names match my output names. What I want is to allow non-matching columns to be mapped by the user as they can in a stock flat file destination. The closest that I have been able to come is to get the "column mappings" tab to show up and populate the "Available Input Columns" by setting ExternalmetadataColumnCollection.IsUsed to true on the input. The problem is that the "Available destination columns" box is always empty. I have tried the IsUsed property on the output and pretty much every other property that I could find. On the Input and Output properties all of my columns show up under the output as both External and Output columns. Is there a separate collection for "destination" columns that I can't find? It's getting a little frustrating, is this something that can be done or do I have to write a custom UI to make it happen?
Thanks!

I've been trying to figure this out on my own for pretty much all of today, and part of last week. I've downloaded samples, searched this forum, blogs, etc. So I figured I would post, since it's the end of the day, and I'm not much further along.
I'm working on a custom transformation component, whose main function is to use SQL encryption/decryption to encrypt/decrypt data from the input columns, into the output columns. The component needs two strings, a key name and a certificate name, as well as the connection manager it should use to connect to SQL which will do the encryption/decryption.
Here's where I'm stuck:
1) How can I provide the key/certificate names via properties? What I'm expecting/looking for is a way to add these two properties at the component-level, which would show up under the "Custom Properties" section of the properties pane (currently, this only has one property, "UserComponentTypeName"). These key/certificate values will be used for all input columns.
2) How do I access the connection managers from within the component? What is the best way to go about using a connection manager from within my component to connect to SQL and perform the encryption/decryption? In a custom task, this was fairly simple, but it seems that same concept won't work on a transformation component.
3) Is there a better way to go about accomplishing this (column encryption via SQL from within SSIS)? Am I going about this all wrong?
As I said, I've searched for direction, but there seems to be next to nothing in the regards of a good reference for creating custom transformation components. I've looked at two MS samples, but can't seem to make any sense out of them.
Thanks in advance.

Hello.
I want to test my custom component with unit tests and i thought i must only initilize the component to play around with it. But when i calling the ProviderComponentProperties method and there the RemoveAllInputsOutputsAndCustomProperties method a NullReference exception is thrown. After debugging the test i had seen that the ComponentMetaData of the component is null. Is there a way to initilize the ComponentMetaData?
The Code of the Component looks like this:
Code Block
[DtsPipelineComponent(
DisplayName = "TestSourceAdapter",
ComponentType = ComponentType.SourceAdapter,
IconResource = "TestSourceAdapter.TestSourceAdapter.ico"
)]
public class TestSourceAdapter: PipelineComponent
{
public override void ProvideComponentProperties()
{
RemoveAllInputsOutputsAndCustomProperties();
IDTSOutput90 output = ComponentMetaData.OutputCollection.New();
output.Name = "TestSourceAdapter";
ComponentMetaData.OutputCollection
["TestSourceAdapter"].ExternalMetadataColumnCollection.IsUsed = true;
ComponentMetaData.ValidateExternalMetadata = false;
ComponentMetaData.UsesDispositions = true;
ComponentMetaData.Name = "TestSourceAdapter";
ComponentMetaData.Description = "TestSourceAdapter";
ReinitializeMetaData();
}
...
}
And in test i call only this
Code Block
TestSourceAdapter testAdapter = new TestSourceAdapter();
_testAdapter.ProvideComponentProperties();
i hope anyone can help
regards
kai
