IDTSOutputColumn100.SetDataTypeProperties Method (DataType, Int32, Int32, Int32, Int32)

 

Applies To: SQL Server 2016 Preview

Sets multiple data type properties of an IDTSOutputColumn100 object simultaneously.

Namespace:   Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap (in Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap.dll)

Syntax

[DispIdAttribute(114)]
void SetDataTypeProperties(
    DataType eDataType,
    int lLength,
    int lPrecision,
    int lScale,
    int lCodePage
)
[DispIdAttribute(114)]
void SetDataTypeProperties(
    DataType eDataType,
    int lLength,
    int lPrecision,
    int lScale,
    int lCodePage
)
[<DispIdAttribute(114)>]
abstract SetDataTypeProperties : 
        eDataType:DataType *
        lLength:int *
        lPrecision:int *
        lScale:int *
        lCodePage:int -> unit
<DispIdAttribute(114)>
Sub SetDataTypeProperties (
    eDataType As DataType,
    lLength As Integer,
    lPrecision As Integer,
    lScale As Integer,
    lCodePage As Integer
)

Parameters

  • lPrecision
    Type: System.Int32

    The total number of digits of the output column.

  • lScale
    Type: System.Int32

    The number of decimal places of the output column.

  • lCodePage
    Type: System.Int32

    The character set of the output column.

Remarks

The parameters of this method are individual read-only properties of the IDTSOutputColumn100 object whose values are set by using this method. The method is required because the values of these properties are dependent on each other. This method provides a mechanism for updating these properties atomically, allowing the data flow to enforce the dependencies. The eDataType parameter is used to determine the other checks to perform on the parameter values.

The following table shows the requirements that are enforced when setting the data type properties of an output column.
