Examples

The following code example iterates through the collection and prints the TypeEnumName and TypeName of each data type in SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS).

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

namespace DataTypeInfo_Properties  
{  
    class Program  
    {  
        static void Main(string[] args)  
        {  
            //Create the DataTypeInfos collection.  
            DataTypeInfos dataInfos = new Application().DataTypeInfos;  

            //Iterate over the collection, printing the values  
            //of the properties.  
            foreach (DataTypeInfo dInfo in dataInfos)  
            {  
                Console.WriteLine("TypeName: {0}, TypeEnumName: {1}", dInfo.TypeName, dInfo.TypeEnumName);  
                //Console.WriteLine("TypeEnumName   {0}", dInfo.TypeEnumName);  
            }  
        }  
    }  
}

            'of the properties.  
            Dim dInfo As DataTypeInfo  
            For Each dInfo In dataInfos  
                Console.WriteLine("TypeName: {0}, TypeEnumName: {1}", dInfo.TypeName, dInfo.TypeEnumName)  
                'Console.WriteLine("TypeEnumName   {0}", dInfo.TypeEnumName);

TypeName: four-byte signed integer, TypeEnumName: DT_I4

TypeName: four-byte unsigned integer, TypeEnumName: DT_UI4

TypeName: eight-byte signed integer, TypeEnumName: DT_I8

TypeName: eight-byte unsigned integer, TypeEnumName: DT_UI8

TypeName: file timestamp, TypeEnumName: DT_FILETIME

TypeName: unique identifier, TypeEnumName: DT_GUID

TypeName: byte stream, TypeEnumName: DT_BYTES

TypeName: string, TypeEnumName: DT_STR
