PrecedenceConstraints.Remove Method

Artykuł
12/03/2008

Removes the specified item as a precedence constraint from the PrecedenceConstraints collection.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub Remove ( _
    index As Object _
)

public void Remove (
    Object index
)

public:
void Remove (
    Object^ index
)

public void Remove (
    Object index
)

public function Remove (
    index : Object
)

Parameters

index
The name, identity, ID, or index to locate in the collection.

Remarks

If the call to the Contains method returns true, you can access the specified element in the collection by using the syntax PrecedenceConstraints[index]. However, if the Contains method returns false, this property throws an exception. In C#, this property is the indexer for the PrecedenceConstraints class.

Example

The following code example creates two precedence constraints. It then uses Contains to verify the existence of a specific constraint, counts the number of constraints before and after the use of the Remove method, and shows how to use the GetEnumerator to iterate over the collection, using the Item syntax of pConsts[i].ID to return the ID of the constraint.
