Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS (in microsoft.sqlserver.manageddts.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function Add ( _
    execFrom As Executable, _
    execTo As Executable _
) As PrecedenceConstraint

public PrecedenceConstraint Add (
    Executable execFrom,
    Executable execTo
)

public:
PrecedenceConstraint^ Add (
    Executable^ execFrom, 
    Executable^ execTo
)

public PrecedenceConstraint Add (
    Executable execFrom, 
    Executable execTo
)

public function Add (
    execFrom : Executable, 
    execTo : Executable
) : PrecedenceConstraint

Parameters

execFrom
The executable that is before the precedence constraint.

execTo
The executable that is after the precedence constraint.

Return Value

The PrecedenceConstraint object.

Example

The following code example creates three tasks, and places precedence constraints between them. Using the PrecedenceConstraints collection, it iterates over the constraints in the package, printing information about each constraint.

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

namespace PrecedenceConst
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Package pkg = new Package();
            // Add a File System task.
            Executable eFileTask1 = pkg.Executables.Add("STOCK:FileSystemTask");
            TaskHost thFileTask1 = eFileTask1 as TaskHost;

            // Add a second File System task.
            Executable eFileTask2 = pkg.Executables.Add("STOCK:FileSystemTask");
            TaskHost thFileTask2 = eFileTask2 as TaskHost;

            // Add a Bulk Insert task.
            Executable eBulkInsert = pkg.Executables.Add("STOCK:BulkInsertTask");
            TaskHost thBulkInsert = eBulkInsert as TaskHost;

            // Add a precedence constraint between eFileTask1 and eFileTask2.
            // Set the constraint to be that eFileTask2 cannot run 
            // until eFileTask1 completes.
            PrecedenceConstraint pcFileTasks = pkg.PrecedenceConstraints.Add(eFileTask1, eFileTask2);

            // Add another precedence constraint. Add it between eFileTask2 and BulkInsert.
            // Again, set the constraint to be that BulkInsert cannot run 
            // until eFileTask2 completes.
            PrecedenceConstraint pcFiletoBulk = pkg.PrecedenceConstraints.Add(eFileTask2, eBulkInsert);

            // Obtain the precedence constraint collection, and display properties.
            // Some properties are read/write and have not been set.
            PrecedenceConstraints pConsts = pkg.PrecedenceConstraints;
            foreach (PrecedenceConstraint pc in pConsts)
            {
