Source Code For The Standard SSIS Components That Come With SSIS?
Jun 2, 2006
Hi,
I'm finding that the standard components often just don't quite meet my
needs, but would only need some fairly minor changes to save me and my team a lot of
work (and produce more elegant solutions). So I was just wondering whether the source code was available for the standard components that come with SSIS, or if there is anyway to extend their functionality?
Or do you just have to start form scratch?
Thanks,
Lawrie

In SSIS can one create €œuser defined functions€? €œsubroutines€? and put them in the SSIS designer for other developers to use?

Everything I've read says that custom data flow components are built by inheriting from the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.PipelineComponent class.
But the stock components such as the Derived Column data flow transformation must each be implemented by their own class. So how do I base my custom components on those classes? The documentation for the PipelineComponent class doesn't list any such subclasses.

Hi
I am looking for a function or so to format a number to two digits plus one decimal point.
Some examples:
- if input=4 then output= 04.0
- if input=40 then output= 40.0
- if input=4.1 then output= 04.1
- if input=4.32 then output= 04.3
Any idea?

hello all -- I'm an SSIS newbie who is exploring (custom) programming functionality through third party components, to be plugged into SSIS, for SMTP, FTP, PGP, TAR, WinZIP, basically for a scheduling & automation utility.
Is there such a concept of third party components (and marketplace for this?) or is VB a much better choice for this vis-a-vis components variety, $$ and robustness ?
thanks much,
Cos

Hi,
As a hobby, I am creating custom SQL Server Integration Services components, which are installed as an add-on to out of the box components. They are mainly used to reduce the development time and minimize the maintance overhead. I would like to know, how I should market them? What are the mediums to use? Since this is the first time, I am creating a software for mass markets, I would really appreciate your help while marketing this baby.
Just FYI, the first commercially available package that I develop is for creating text based files. My package connects to any OLE DB datasource. Executes the query and stores the output in a text file. It is very useful while developing database driven custom feeds. Instead of working with multiple dataflow tasks, data flow sources, you just need to configure one single component and the rest is taken care for you. Since, the package implements the standard Microsoft Task Editor, it is very easy to learn.
Thanks for your help.

Especially interested in the CodePageConvert.
Installing the .msi just creates a project folder in my Visual Studio directory. I'm unclear how to get from this point to being able to choose this component from my Toolbox items in SSIS. There was a readme file that talked about gacutil.exe and .snk files that was a above my head.
Can anyone dumb it down for me?

How can we install the SSIS runtime components alone.
We are calling SSIS packages from .NET code. We would like to know what are the minimum components we need to install in the machine in which the .NET code is running.

Is it possible to use versioning at all with SSIS components?
My experience so far is that I have not figured out how version them at all, because if I change the version number, then apparently the <property name="UserComponentTypeName" ...> has to be changed in every single reference to the component, in every dataflow, in every single dtsx file that uses the component at all -- this will be a tremendous headache as some of this stuff is in source control. It seemsl clearly infeasible to check out and substitute and change all these references, and check them all back in, except very infrequently -- surely not feasible to do it for each small change.
I am in the habit of versioning dlls and assemblies, and actually changing at least a minor build number for each actual change, so I am a bit unhappy to find that apparently I cannot feasibly do this for a custom SSIS component :(
(I just find a dislike at apparently being forced to leave the version number invariant when I make code changes.)
What I would be very happy with, is if there were a way to adjust all the references in all the dtsx files, to refer to only the major and minor build numbers say, specifying that I am not picky about the revision numbers below those, so that it will find the latest component in the GAC matching the major and minor numbers.
That way I could still update the component version with each code change, which would make me happy, and not have to edit a zillion dtsx occurrences (not having to do that would also make me happy).
Anyone know if that is possible?
I'm hoping it is, and that it is only my ignorance at component references preventing me from doing so.

What SSIS components must be loaded onto the server?
To run an SSIS ETL program, exactly what executable, components, programs, etc. must reside on the server that will be running the program. Our developers write an test their ETL programs locally, on their desktops or laptops, but must upload the scripts to the production server for execution. Obviously, they are not going load Visual Studio and SQL 2005, etc. up to the server just to run the scripts (tho SQL 2005 may be on the same box as one of the DB engines used for ETL).
Any info would be appreciated.

MSDN states the following on: Readable Secondary Replicas (AlwaysOn Availability Groups) for SQL Server 2014:
Limitations and Restrictions:
Change tracking and change data capture are not supported on secondary databases that belong to a readable secondary replica:
Change tracking is explicitly disabled on secondary databases.
Change data capture can be enabled on a secondary database, but this is not supported.
This confuses me: You can not track the changes. However you can enable CDC?
The scenario I am trying to achieve is to use SSIS CDC components on an asynchronous secondary replica. Is this possible? If not what would be other viable approaches?

Greetings SSIS friends,
I have been attempting to implement one of our numerous ETL processes in SSIS but hit a brick wall when I tried replacing a complex stored procedure with a series of Merge Join components.
In the end, I had to settle with using a SQL task which merely calls the stored procedure and this proved to be the better option as the other version where I used SSIS components only took forever to run.
How do people cope with complex transformations?! Do you guys opt for pure TSQL to perform complex transformations and use SSIS components for control flow+simple(ish) data flow tasks?
I am confused.

I have a SQL Server 2005 Package (32 bit, 4 processors/16 GB of RAM, 3 GB switch for SSIS) with 1 DataFlow and 5 Custom Components:
> An OLEDB Source that reads a stoed proc from Sybase
> 3 Transform Components that perform: 6-required fields check, 4-lookups (3 cached, 1 non-cached), and a calculation that is performed(called) from a .NET Library.
> A SQL Destination that uses the .NET BulkCopy Class to insert the data.
It takes about 3 hours to load 1 million records that contain 46 columns (the largest being a varchar(100)). I have tried a good number of tuning options as well as indexing/SQL techniques to improve perfromance.
Some pieces of info:
1) We dynamically create the buffer during runtime based on an SSIS variable.
2) The actions of the components are determined at runtime through config files.
We do these two things so we can have multiple data flows run through the same package for better scalability and flexibility. Since we are dynamically creating the buffer I can NOT use any of the out of the box components because of lineage and metadata inconsistency issues.
3) I noticed on PerfMon that I am spooling buffers to disk after 100K rows.
I realize this is bad, but what are my alternatives?
Should I go to 64 bit? Is there anything else I can do?
Thanks in advance,
Anthony

Hi,
I have a SSIS Package which I would like to modify using SSIS API. I need to put new component between some two existing data flow's components. During this process I need to disconnect two data flow's components using SSIS API. How can I do that?
Thanks,

The following is a list of questions that I have not been able to obtain concrete answers. I am probably missing something:
1) ReadWriteVariables -- can the updated value for a ReadWriteVariable be accessed within the same data flow? It appears not as I think the PostExecute() fires at the completion of the data flow not the end of the Script Component. Secondarily, the Script Component is a non-blocking transformation so the component does not "see" the end of the pipeline prior to sending data down stream.
2) Record Count -- Because of #1 above, How could you calculate a record count for a data stream? It does not appear that one can calculate the number of records for a data stream within a data flow and then access the count from within the same data flow.
3) FinishOutputs() -- Is the concept of FinishOutputs() applicable to Script Component Destinations? Asked another way, is FinishOutputs() executed at the end of the data stream regardless of whether there are "real" outputs for the component? I can create a "Dummy" output to create FinishOutputs() but is this ok?
4) Script Component -- It appears that the Script Component Source, Transformation or Destination are really defined based on the columns defined in "Inputs and Outputs". Can you convert an Source script component to a transformation script component by simply adding an Output?
Sorry for these basic questions but I am not getting it completely. As you can tell...

Hi,
Can anyone tell me where I might find the Class and Sequence Diagrams for the SSIS framework (for Custom Components)?
I've just started trying to create some Custom Transform Components and
I'm really struggling to get my head around the component lifecycle
(i.e what methods are called when, with what arguments, and why) with
just the BOL documentation to guide me.
Thanks in advance,

Hi
I am having a huge xml file with nested section.
i also have a xsd file for that xml.
i have a destination table where the data from the xml should be loaded into.
i am using the xml source transformation. But o get all the data i need to use multiple merje joins to get the data in a single row which i can insert into the destination.i was not quiet convinced with using so many joins.
so i tried using the script source transformation where i am using xml objects to get the node and dynamically construction the data row. and the output is then inserted into the destination.
on comparing the two approach the one using the script source is working much faster than the xml source transformation.
i wanted to know is there any limitaion using the script source to parse through xml files.
also i would like to know any other better way of getting the data from xml source without using the joins.

We're experiencing a problem where intermittently our SSIS packages will hang. There are no log errors or events in the event viewer. It will happen whether the package is executed from the SQL Job Agent or run from BIDs. When running from BIDs it appears to hang inside one of the data flows (several parallel pipes with sorts, merge joins etc...). It appears to hang in multiple pipes within the data flow component. The problem is reproducable, we just kill it and re-run, and it appears to hang in the same places.
Now here's the odd thing: as we simply open and close some of the components in the pipe line after the place it hangs, a subsequent run will go further in the pipeline before hanging. If we open and close all the components after the point it initially hung, the data flow will run fine, from there on out. When I say "open and close" I mean no changes are made, we simply double-click the component, like a merge join, then click 'close.'
To me this does not seem like a memory problem but likely something is wrong with the metadata, where opening a component and closing it somehow alters the metadata to "right it".
This seems to occur intermittently after we make modifications to the package. It's like if you make any mod, even unrelated to the data flow, you then have to go through and open and close every component in your package to ensure it will work. Again, no errors or warnings are fired.
Has anyone seen this type of problem?

I am a SQL 2005 newbie, but well-acquainted with SQL 2000. I am building a Data Mart ETL process that is going to be fairly small and fairly simple.
I surveyed SSIS and see that SSIS has much more capability than SQL 2000 Data Transformation Services (DTS) and is Microsoft€™s attempt at a full-featured ETL tool. It appeared I could possibly use SSIS to completely design, implement, and manage my ETL process.
We have SQL 2005 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1 applied. To further investigate SSIS capabilities, I used SSIS to design a process to populate a simple dimension table. When I use this process to populate a text file, it works fine. However, when I use the process to populate a dimension table, I get this error:
Error: 0xC113000A at Data Flow Task, Dimension Processing [772]: Errors related to feature availability and configuration: The 'Data Push' feature is not included in the 'Standard Edition' SKU.
This error seems to indicate that Standard Edition does not support populating the dimension table. However, I can find no documentation on the Internet nor any Microsoft site that further explains the specific error message above. Also, I can find little documentation about the specific SSIS restrictions that Standard Edition has in comparison to Enterprise Edition.
This experience leads me to the following questions:
1. To build an ETL process using only SSIS constructs (the €œpure-SSIS approach€?), are we going to need SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition? In other words, do you know if we will likely hit more restrictions if we continue with Standard Edition and attempt a pure-SSIS approach?
2. Does the lack of documentation about this specific error and the lack of documentation about Standard Edition SSIS specific restrictions imply SSIS is not (yet) adopted widely? (I realize it is fairly new). If we pursue the pure-SSIS approach, is it a risk that we would be somewhat on the €œbleeding edge€? and may encounter problems with little or no documentation?
3. Do you have any general thoughts on these two ETL approaches?
a. Pure-SSIS
b. Limited-SSIS plus custom non-SSIS processes
I would appreciate any feedback.
Thanks!

Hi All,
I am not sure if this is a correct forum to discuss on the document posted @ http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=1c2a7dd2-3ec3-4641-9407-a5a337bea7d3&displaylang=en on SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) Hands on Training - Creating Custom Components.
I am assuming Microsoft Developers are constantly monitoring this forum.
In the document - SSIS Creating a Custom Transformation Component .doc on Page 2 -
Exercise 1 - Writing the no-op data flow transformation component -
Task 1 - Create a new C# Class Library Project
The textual description talks about creating a new Visual C# Class Library project in VS 2005 but the screenshot accompanying it shows the creation of new "Integration Service Project" in VS 2005.
Please change the screenshot appropriately to avoid confusions.
Thanks,
Loonysan

I am getting the following error while attempting to install the Workstation components on my SQL2005 Standard Server.
To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005, you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter.
I know the problem is related to a previous installation of Enterprise Edition on the same server. I have tried deleting all SQL files, and registry keys yet I am still getting the same error.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If, in an SSIS package, you put an instance of an 'Execute SQL Task' task in the Control Flow, in the Properties window, you can see the properties of the task, for example CodePage.
If you double click on the task, the Execute SQL Task Editor appears, with several of the properties which are also in the Properties window, including CodePage.
If, in the Editor, you update the value of CodePage, then click OK, the value of CodePage in the Properties window is updated immediately.
I have written a custom SSIS task, which also has the same properties in the Properties window and in the Editor. The Editor also has an OK button. When OK is clicked, the values of the task properties are updated. An example property is FolderToArchive. If I open the Editor, change the value of FolderToArchive and click the OK button, the value of FolderToArchive in the Properties window is NOT immediately updated.
If, however, I select the FolderToArchive field in the Propertiesd window, it is then updated with the value I entered in the Editor.
How do I get my task to update the values in the Properties window, after changing a value in the Editor, when I click the OK button?
I would have thought I would need something like, in pseudo-code,
   Task.Parent.PropertiesWindow.Refresh
   where task is of type Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Task and Task.Parent is of type Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Package.

Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Tools
Hello,
I am having a problem when trying to add the Client Components to an existing installation of SQL 2005 Standard Edition SP1 running on Windows 2003 Standard. The server was originally built with SQL 2005 Standard Edition and had SP1 installed at a later date. I am using the CD that SQL was originally installed with which is not a service packed copy of SQL. The reason given when clicking the details button is as follows:
Reason: Your upgrade is blocked. For more information about upgrade support, see the "Version and Edition Upgrades" and "Hardware and Software Requirements" topics in SQL Server 2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005 Books Online.
Build version check:
Your upgrade is blocked because the existing component is a later version than the version you are trying to upgrade to. To modify an existing SQL Server component, go to Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel, select the component you would like to modify, and then click Change/Remove.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please can someone give me a url or even their own list of support / unsupported components in SQL server 2005 Standard edition.
I know fuzzy lookup is not supported. Is a slowly changing dimension supported?
Its a bit difficult to tell when I get bizzare "Product level is insufficient" error for even a basic derived column transformation when executing a package using SSIS unless it is executed using a scheduled job....

Hi, all
I've seach the threads before. a lot of discussion about C# to VSA.
So could anyone with experience on conversion from C# to SSIS/VSA give me a suggestion?
I 've C# code application which complete some ETL process. Now I need to convert all the ETL process to SSIS pacakge. the function of part of C# code is to get the result from stored procedure and then write the result to excel file, not row by row.
the C# code call Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel as a object to write excel file.
But in VSA, I can't add Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel as a reference so I can convert C# to VB.net regarding writing excel file.
So any solution about that?
any help will be appreciated.........
