Members

Member name Description
ParentVariable Specifies that the configuration information is stored in a package variable.
ConfigFile Specifies that the configuration is stored in a configuration file. In the SSIS Package Configuration Wizard, the Configuration File Name column is where you specify the location and name of the configuration file that the wizard generates.
EnvVariable Specifies that the configuration is stored in an environment variable.
RegEntry Specifies that the configuration information is stored in a registry entry.
IParentVariable Specifies that the configuration information is stored in an environment variable that contains the information about the package variable.
IConfigFile Specifies that the configuration is stored in an environment variable that contains the information about configuration flat file.
IRegEntry Specifies that the configuration information is stored in an environment variable that contains the information about the registry entry.
SqlServer Specifies that the configuration is stored in the SQL Server msdb database. This field is constant.
IniFile This member is reserved for future use.
ISqlServer Specifies that the location of the configuration information is stored in an environment variable that contains information about the SQL Server .
IIniFile This member is reserved for future use.

Remarks

Integration Services supports many different ways of specifying configurations for a package. For more information, see Creating Package Configurations.

Examples

The following code example creates a package, enables configurations, and enables the export of the configuration file. It adds a new Configuration to the package Configurations collection, and sets several properties on the configuration, including the ConfigurationType, which uses this enumeration. After saving and reloading the package, the configuration properties are displayed.
