Definition

Adds an EventInfo object to the current EventInfos collection.

public:
 void Add(System::String ^ eventName, System::String ^ description, bool allowEventHandlers, cli::array <System::String ^> ^ parameterNames, cli::array <TypeCode> ^ parameterTypes, cli::array <System::String ^> ^ parameterDescriptions);
public void Add (string eventName, string description, bool allowEventHandlers, string[] parameterNames, TypeCode[] parameterTypes, string[] parameterDescriptions);
member this.Add : string * string * bool * string[] * TypeCode[] * string[] -> unit
Public Sub Add (eventName As String, description As String, allowEventHandlers As Boolean, parameterNames As String(), parameterTypes As TypeCode(), parameterDescriptions As String())

Parameters

eventName
String

The name of the custom event.

description
String

A String that contains a description of the event.

allowEventHandlers
Boolean

A Boolean that indicates if the development tool will allow event handler objects to be created for the event. If true, event handler objects can be created for the event.

parameterNames
String[]

An array of parameters passed to the event.

parameterTypes
TypeCode[]

The type of each parameter in the parameterNames array.

parameterDescriptions
String[]

An array that contains descriptions for each of the parameters in parameterNames.

Examples

The following example shows a custom event being added to the EventInfos collection.

public override void InitializeTask(Connections connections, VariableDispenser variables, IDTSInfoEvents events, IDTSLogging log, EventInfos eventInfos, LogEntryInfos logEntryInfos, ObjectReferenceTracker refTracker)  
{  
    this.eventInfos = eventInfos;  
    string[] paramNames = new string[1];  
    TypeCode[] paramTypes = new TypeCode[1]{TypeCode.Int32};  
    string[] paramDescriptions = new string[1];  

    paramNames[0] = "InitialValue";  
    paramDescriptions[0] = "The value before increment.";  

    this.eventInfos.Add("OnBeforeIncrement","Fires before the task increments the value.",true,paramNames,paramTypes,paramDescriptions);  
    this.onBeforeIncrement = this.eventInfos["OnBeforeIncrement"];  

    paramDescriptions[0] = "The value after increment.";  
    this.eventInfos.Add("OnAfterIncrement","Fires after the initial value is updated.",true,paramNames, paramTypes,paramDescriptions);  
    this.onAfterIncrement = this.eventInfos["OnAfterIncrement"];  
}  
Public Overrides Sub InitializeTask(ByVal connections As Connections, ByVal variables As VariableDispenser, ByVal events As IDTSInfoEvents, ByVal log As IDTSLogging, ByVal eventInfos As EventInfos, ByVal logEntryInfos As LogEntryInfos, ByVal refTracker As ObjectReferenceTracker)   
    Me.eventInfos = eventInfos  
    Dim paramNames(0) As String  
    Dim paramTypes(0) As TypeCode = {TypeCode.Int32}  
    Dim paramDescriptions(0) As String  

    paramNames(0) = "InitialValue"  
    paramDescriptions(0) = "The value before increment."  

    Me.eventInfos.Add("OnBeforeIncrement", "Fires before the task increments the value.", True, paramNames, paramTypes, paramDescriptions)  
    Me.onBeforeIncrement = Me.eventInfos("OnBeforeIncrement")  

    paramDescriptions(0) = "The value after increment."  
    Me.eventInfos.Add("OnAfterIncrement", "Fires after the initial value is updated.", True, paramNames, paramTypes, paramDescriptions)  
    Me.onAfterIncrement = Me.eventInfos("OnAfterIncrement")  
End Sub
