UDT - SQL Server 2005 - How To Add Custom Properties In C# ?

Oct 20, 2006

Hello to everyone, I've a question about UDTs and the way I can use them to access tables and columns where they are applied in a SQL Server 2005 DB.
I've already spent 2 days googling and MSDN reading but nothing helped me to solve my problem, thats why I'm posting it here (this is the second post, maybe the last one was in the wrong Forum).

The scenario follows:

I've created a UDT called MyUDT that exposes 2 properties MyTable, MyColumn, here its the code:


[Serializable]
[SqlUserDefinedType(Format.UserDefined, IsByteOrdered = true, MaxByteSize = 8000, Name = "MyUDT")]
public class MyUDT : INullable, IBinarySerialize
{

    private string _myTable;
    private string _myColumn;
....    

    /// <summary>
    /// Set or Get the Table Name where the UDT is applied.
    /// </summary>
    public string MyTable {
        get { return this._myTable; }
        set { this._myTable = value; }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Set or Get the Table's Column Name where the UDT is applied.
    /// </summary>
    public string MyColumn
    {
        get { return this._myColumn; }
        set { this._myColumn = value; }
    }

....

}


And here it's my question/s:

How can I expose the defined Properties (MyTable, MyColumn) in order to be directly used from
SQL Server Management Studio within the Column Properties Panel?

Pls take a look to the print screen placed below:

[img=http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/7193/untitledip1.th.jpg]

 
If it is not possible, is there a way for any UDT to get back from the sql server execution context
the table and the column where it is applied/used?

I need to solve that in order to later retrieve via SQL the Extended Table Properties where the UDT is used
and make some work on presented MetaData. Thanks in advance, every answer/help will be very much appreciated.

Displaying Custom Properties For Custom Transformation In Custom UI

Mar 8, 2007

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#.

Expression Editor On Custom Properties On Custom Data Flow Component

Aug 14, 2007

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

Non-browsable Custom Properties

Aug 16, 2006

Does anyone happen to know if it is possible to set a custom data flow component property to be non-browsable? I have a number of custom component properties, and would prefer that they only be updateable through my custom UI as opposed to via the property grid on the SSIS designer,

thanks

Accessing Custom Properties In UI

May 11, 2007

I am attempting to set my custom properties in the UI I have created for my custom transformation. I can access them in the ProcessInput, but if I try to assign them a new value in my UI the values dont change.



I set the properties up in ProvideComponentProperties

public override void ProvideComponentProperties()

{

// Perform component setup operations

ComponentMetaData.UsesDispositions = false;

// Add Input

IDTSInput90 input = ComponentMetaData.InputCollection.New();

input.Name = "TrimInput";

input.ErrorRowDisposition = DTSRowDisposition.RD_NotUsed;

// Add Output

IDTSOutput90 output = ComponentMetaData.OutputCollection.New();

output.Name = "TrimOutput";

output.SynchronousInputID = input.ID;

IDTSCustomProperty90 Trimproperty = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New();

Trimproperty.Name = "Trim Values";

Trimproperty.Description = "Selected Trim Values";





IDTSCustomProperty90 Colproperty = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New();

Colproperty.Name = "Col Names";

Colproperty.Description = "Column Names";



}



btn Click event in UI form



IDTSCustomProperty90 Trimproperty = _dtsComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection["Trim Values"];

Trimproperty.Value = sConcatTrim;



IDTSCustomProperty90 Colproperty = _dtsComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection["Col Names"];

Colproperty.Value = sConcatColNames;



Any suggestions or please point me to any example would be greatly appreciated.

Where To Create Custom Column Properties?

Jun 29, 2006

I'm building a custom component and UI and am a bit confused on where I
need to create and/or set custom column
properties?

My UI will have a datagrid with three
columns: 1) a check box to select a column for use by the component, 2)
the input column name, and 3) a "differentiator" checkbox that indicates
an extra property about some of the columns that have the first column
checkbox checked (For example, my component may be using five input columns, but
three of those need to be used in a slightly different
way.)

The problem is, I don't understand when or
where I'm supposed to create the custom property for the input
column. SetUsageType is where I've been thinking, but I don't
know if I'm supposed to be creating it for an input column or a virtual
input column. I'd appreciate any guidance.

SSIS - Custom Properties For Derived And Other Transformations

May 10, 2006

Hi,

I saw some thing called custom properties for the "Derived transformation" in the msdn site. I tried to use them in a simple package, but I am getting an error as "can't write to derivedoutputcolumnname.friendlyexpression". Friendly expression is one of the custom properties available for the derived transformation output columns.

The steps I followed to get to this error are as follows:

1) Get data from a table using OLEDB Source. Suppose I am getting firstName, LastName etc.

2) Derived column input is values from the above OLEDB Source.

3) I have added a new column called "Concatenated name" which is concatenated value of first and last names.

4) Then in the properties editor of this data flow task in expressions option I clicked on ellipse available. I got an editor for property expression, which contained two columns called "Property" and "Expression". Property column contains dropdown with friendly expressions propety for the derived columns and expression column is a text box, where in we can enter expression to be evaluated for the corresponding friendly expression property.

5) Now when I click on OK and try to debug it gives an error as "Can't write to concatenatedname.friendlyexpresiion".

If anybody has already faced this problem and solved it please let me know, because I am struck here a long time.



Thanks&Regards,

Sreekanth Ammisetty

Can Custom Properties In A SSIS Component Be Disabled

Is there a way of disabling a custom property in a component so that during design-time the property is grayed out? I looked around the properties of IDTSCustomProperty90 and nothing sticks out.

Building Expression Like Properties In Custom SSIS Tasks

Oct 22, 2007



Ive been using SSIS for a month or two and now find I need to create some custom tasks to perform some performance logging. in the the overloaded ProviderComponentProperties section I am trying to create a property which has the same look as the Expressions properties you find elsewhere (Little + on the left and a group of sub properties when expanded).

Ive have played with creating a IDTSCustomPropertyCollection90 collection then adding my sub properties to it but I cant seem to then add my new collection to the ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertiesCollection.

Im assuming the Expressions parameter is a collection added to the properties collection but I cant figure out how. Any help would be much appreciated.

Custom Task With PropertyGrid Control SSIS - Not Able To See Properties In GUI

Apr 29, 2008

Hello All Experts,

I have created one custom task with PropertyGrid Control and two button on it. I have everything under one class library project.
Problem I am facing is when i load task and clik on Edit I can not see those properties into that GUI and even functionlity of those two buttons (OK and Cancel) not working but I am able to see those properties in default property window.

If I create this GUI as a seperate window application then I am able to see those properties in GUI and buttons also working but in SSIS I am not able to load the task.

After reading on internet about SSIS they suggest to create everything under one project which I did.

Basically I am trying to populate connection managers like Source Connection and Destination Connection when I load this task and there are much more backend functionlity but at first step i m stuck and not able to see those properties in GUI.

Please help and give your input on it. I was following "Increment Task" example given by MSDN.
If you need more info let me know.

Thanks

Custom Properties In External Metadata Not Writeable Using The Advanced Editor

Jun 30, 2006

Hello,

I'm working on a custom dataflow destination component. It makes use of the External Metadata Collection. I also use Custom Properties with the external metadata collection.

When I open the destination component using the Advanced Editor, and select an External Metadata Collection and change the Custom Property it always changes back to the original value.

Additionally the method SetExternalMetadataColumnProperty never gets called.

Here is a little Test Component that surfaces the problem:



[DtsPipelineComponent(ComponentType=ComponentType.DestinationAdapter, DisplayName="Test Destination")]
public class Class1 : PipelineComponent
{
public override void ProvideComponentProperties()
{
base.ProvideComponentProperties();

ComponentMetaData.InputCollection.RemoveAll();
IDTSInput90 input = ComponentMetaData.InputCollection.New();
input.Name = "Name";
input.ExternalMetadataColumnCollection.IsUsed = true;

IDTSExternalMetadataColumn90 ext = input.ExternalMetadataColumnCollection.New();
ext.Name = "ExtName";
IDTSCustomProperty90 customProp = ext.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
customProp.Name = "Custom Property";
customProp.Value = "Hallo";
}

public override IDTSCustomProperty90 SetExternalMetadataColumnProperty(int iID, int iExternalMetadataColumnID, string strPropertyName, object oValue)
{
return base.SetExternalMetadataColumnProperty(iID, iExternalMetadataColumnID, strPropertyName, oValue);
}
}

Any ideas how to make that work?

I implemented a custom source adaptor. I want to be able to associate custom properties with each of the output columns. I want them to be passed downsteam. The idea is to be able to retrieve these information in a downstream custom transformations of ours and process the various columns accordingly. How do I go about doing this?I noticed that the IDTSCustomProperty90 seems to have a local scope only.

Reg:- Assign File Properties To SSIS Varibales(Custom Task) In Property Grid Progrmatically.

Jul 6, 2007

HI,

I need to open a File through File connection manager and want to assign these file properties to SSIS precreated varibale or Newly created varibale. I want to show file properties in Propertygrid. Properties grid will conatin File Propeties Column and SSIS varibale Combobox column. The combo box will contain New variable field. When user select New Variable field, then a new SSIS varibale window will open and we can able create New variable and that Newly created variable should add to that property comboBox.



For Instance if we create a new varibale Name "Creationdate" by clicking on New Varible in ComboBox, then that CreationDate variable should add to Property ComboBox in PropertyGrid. After adding when we select that variable Name "Creationdate" then that selected file Creation date should assign to SSIS varibale "Creationdate" field.



Any Comments or sample will help me.

SQL 2012 :: Connection Properties Versus SSMS Server Properties

Mar 16, 2015

I have an ODBC connection string that is working fine with the following properties:

Database="XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY"; strangely no server is specified in the string, but it is specified in the ODBC Connection file.

I am trying to do a new server registration in SSMS for this database.However, I don't understand where the network spec is placed.

Under Registered server name I've tried:

YYYYYYXXXXX

When I browse the server for the database instance list, I receive "network path was not found".

I even tried:"XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY" for the registered server name.Same error message.

What am I doing wrong ?

Programmatically Set Linked Server Properties + SQL 2005 + RPC / RPC OUT

May 21, 2008



Hi Folks,

In SQL 2005, the linked servers are not automatically enabled for RPC / RPC OUT like they were in SQL 2000. I have set the properties for my linked server by using SQL Management Studio.

I right click on the Linked Server --> Properties --> Server Options

There are options like: Collation Compatible, Data Access, RPC, RPC OUT, Use Remote Collation

There is a drop down box to set each value to TRUE or FALSE. Setting them through management studio works great, however for the production environment I need to set these properties programmatically. Is there a stored procedure or registry setting that would allow my program to set these values for a given linked server?

Thank you.

Creating Custom Primary Key In SQL Server 2005

Mar 11, 2008

I currently have a website which is using ASP.NET 2.0, C#, and SQLServer 2005. The website will be used to enter grants for auniversity. When a new grant is entered, I need to generate a primarykey. The primary key will need to follow the format: Two digit forfiscal year, then number of the grant for that year. Example:Year 08 and 14th grant of the year would be: 0814How can I implement this. Right now, I have a "New Grant.aspx" pagewith a Submit button. I am guessing the date is going to be formattedin C#. How can I check what the last primary key in the database is?Also, it seems to me that SQL Server insists that the primary key be32 bits long, however my primary key will only be 4. How can Ioverride this? Thanks.

Better Method To Count Records In Custom Paging For SQL Server 2005

Jul 24, 2006

heres my problem, since I migrated to SQL-Server 2005, I was able to use the Row_Number() Over Method to make my Custom Paging Stored Procedure better.  But theres onte thing that is still bothering me, and its the fact the Im still using and old and classic Count instruction to find my total of Rows, which slow down a little my Stored Procedure.  What I want to know is:  Is there a way to use something more efficiant to count theBig Total of Rows without using the Count instruction???  heres my stored procedure:
SELECT RowNum, morerecords, Ad_Id FROM (Select ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Ad_Id) AS RowNum, morerecords = (Select Count(Ad_Id) From Ads) FROM Ads)  as testWHERE RowNum Between 11 AND 20
The green part is the problem, the fields morerecords is the one Im using to count all my records, but its a waste of performance to use that in a custom paging method (since it will check every records, normally, theres a ton of condition with a lot of inner join, but I simplified things in my exemple)...I hope I was clear enough in my explication, and that someone will be able to help me.  Thank for your time.

Sql 2005 Extended Properties

Under SSMS I can add simple text and carriage returns to an extended property associated with a column. SSMS preserves the <CRLF> formatting that I used. But when I try to read this same text using, for example,



SELECT name, value FROM ::fn_listextendedproperty

(NULL, 'schema', 'dbo', 'table', 'Customers', 'column', 'CompanyName')



I find that "value" has the <CRLF>'s removed! What am I doing wrong here?

Custom Installation Of Sql Std 2005.. What Are Most Doing?

Dec 28, 2007



I've configured a min. of two drives.. C and D.. we typically install
the database files on d.. ie: d:datasql databasesinstancenameshere


When i run setup.. i let it pick the defaults.. then afterwards i
change the default database path to D:


Is there any reason NOT to do this..



IE: choose this path d:...sql when i click advanced during setup..
and have the program files placed there too.. IE: master db's etc
too..

(does having a seperate backup of the master database files even matter, ie: if reinstalling say on a different box or even the same box, dont these need to be recreated from scratch anyway?)


What are most doing.. with multi logical drive letter installs?

Server Properties

Oct 11, 2002

Hello!
We are having problems with a single SQL Server where the Server properties will not save, and always revert to the default.
It occurs only on those tabs with "configured" and "running" options at the bottom. Other tabs will keep the settings we custom.
The big problem is with the memory and processor tabs which even when we've made only a single change and stopped and started the service, reverts back to a default.
Any clues - we are logged in as "sa" and have not removed the SA priviledges.

Thanks for any help,
Simon

SQL 2005: Creating Custom Primary Key

Mar 27, 2008

Hello everyone!

Even though I am not "new to SQL Server", my experience in working with it has ebbed and flowed, and working with SQL Server is not something that happens for me even on a monthly basis.

I work as an in-house programmer for a financial investment company and I have been asked to work on a database that is to hold financial data.

One of the requirements for the tables has been that the Primary Key should be [name_of_the_table] + [Identity].

So, for example, for table "tblEquities", the values of the Primary Key would be:

PK
-------
tblEquities1
tblEquities2
tblEquities3
tblEquities4
tblEquities5


My questions are:
1) Is it possible to achieve this by using just one column, as in defining a formula for the "Computed Column Specification" , something that would look like "'tblEquities' + Identity()"?
2) If the above is not possible, I assume it's much easier to just define a column as being Identity column and then create a 2nd computed column that would aggregate the name of the table with the value in the Identity column, so that I end up with a column holding the desired values? (I guess it would look something like
"'tblEquities' + [Identity]")

Also, I have been asked to find out what SQL 2005 have/offers, in term of guaranteeing referential integrity. Are the "Database Diagram", as well as the "Relationships" dialog box, the tools that would meet that criteria or does SQL 2005 contain other tools that would help in this regard?

Thank you!

Custom Security Extensions For SQL RS 2005

Apr 12, 2007

Hi,



I'm having a lot of trouble trying to set up a custom security extension with Reporting Services 2005. Following the VB example from McGraw Hill Osborne (http://www.mhprofessional.com/product.php?cat=112&isbn=0072262397&cat=112), I've compiled the .dll for the extension and made the changes to the ReportManager and ReportServer .config files. After I reset IIS and return to the RS website, it displays "The report server has encountered a configuration error..." and I get a message in my System Event log:



The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{BA126AD1-2166-11D1-B1D0-00805FC1270E}
to the user MYMACHINEASPNET SID (S-1-5-21-1708537768-839522115-1343024091-1005). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.



Wondering if anyone else has had similar trouble and how did they get around it?
