Examples

The following code example creates a package and adds a FILE ConnectionManager. The DTSFileConnectionUsageType enumeration describes the FileUsageType property as being an existing file by specifying the FileExists value.

using System;  
using System.Collections.Generic;  
using System.Text;  
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime;  

namespace Microsoft.SqlServer.SSIS.Samples  
{  
    class mySqlServer_Sample  
    {  
        static void Main(string[] args)  
        {  
            Package package = new Package();  
            ConnectionManager cm_srcDirectory = package.Connections.Add("FILE");  
            cm_srcDirectory.Name = "cm_srcDirectory";  
            cm_srcDirectory.ConnectionString =  @"C:\MyFTPDirectory\*.*";  
            cm_srcDirectory.Properties["FileUsageType"].SetValue(cm_srcDirectory, DTSFileConnectionUsageType.FileExists);  
        }  
    }  
}  
Imports System  
Imports System.Collections.Generic  
Imports System.Text  
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime  

Namespace Microsoft.SqlServer.SSIS.Samples  
    Class mySqlServer_Sample  
        Shared  Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)  
            Dim package As Package =  New Package()   
            Dim cm_srcDirectory As ConnectionManager =  package.Connections.Add("FILE")   
            cm_srcDirectory.Name = "cm_srcDirectory"  
            cm_srcDirectory.ConnectionString =  "C:\MyFTPDirectory\*.*"  
            cm_srcDirectory.Properties("FileUsageType").SetValue(cm_srcDirectory, DTSFileConnectionUsageType.FileExists)  
        End Sub  
    End Class  
End Namespace  

Remarks

This enumeration is used by the connection manager for validation purposes. For example, if the connection is being used to delete a file, and the connection is pointing to a folder, it fails validation. In addition, this enumerator indicates to the connection manager whether ambiguous names are files or folders. For example, "C:\ABC" could be the name of a new folder, or it could be a new file in the C:\ directory. This enumeration indicates if it is a file or folder.
