Executables.Item Property

Returns an Executable object from the collection.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Default Property Item ( _
    index As Object _
) As Executable
    Get
'Usage
Dim instance As Executables
Dim index As Object
Dim value As Executable

value = instance(index)
public Executable this[
    Object index
] { get; }
public:
property Executable^ default[Object^ index] {
    Executable^ get (Object^ index);
}
member Item : Executable
JScript supports the use of indexed properties, but not the declaration of new ones.

Parameters

Remarks

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

Examples

The following example is a modification of the sample found in Remove. It removes the executable using the item syntax.

The first package now contains 0 executables

The second package initially contains 0 executables

The second package now contains 1 executables
