Parameters
- typeCode
The system TypeCode to convert to the SSIS type.
Return Value
The SSIS type for the system TypeCode.

Example
The following example shows a pipeline component that overrides the RegisterEvents method and creates a custom event using the EventInfos collection, using the VarTypeFromTypeCode to create a reference type.
Public override void RegisterEvents()
{
string []parameters = new string[1]{"Parameter1"};
ushort []types = new ushort[1]{DtsConvert.VarTypeFromTypeCode(TypeCode.String)};
string []descriptions = new string [1]{"The first parameter."};
EventInfos.Add("OnPreExecute", "Fires when the PreExecute method runs.", false, ref parameters, ref types, ref descriptions);
}
Public Overrides Sub RegisterEvents()
String ()parameters = New String(1)
{
"Parameter1"
}
System.UInt16 ()types = New System.UInt16(1)
{
DtsConvert.VarTypeFromTypeCode(TypeCode.String)
}
String ()descriptions = New String (1)
{
"The first parameter."
}
EventInfos.Add("OnPreExecute", "Fires when the PreExecute method runs.", False, parameters, types, descriptions)
End Sub
