Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
A Boolean that indicates whether the collection can be accessed by name, identity, or index. A value of true indicates that the collection can be accessed by using the syntax DtsProperties[index].
A value of false indicates that indexing cannot be used to retrieve items from the DtsProperties collection.

Examples

The following code sample uses the Contains method to see if one of the properties in the collection is "CertificateObject".

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

namespace DtsProperties_API
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Package pkg = new Package();

            // Get the Properties collection from the package.
            // This shows the default properties set on new packages.
            DtsProperties pkgProperties = pkg.Properties;

           // Create the enumerator.
            PropertyEnumerator myEnumerator = pkgProperties.GetEnumerator();

            // Show the use of the Contains method.
            Boolean containsCertObj = pkgProperties.Contains("CertificateObject");
            Console.WriteLine("Contains CertificateObject? {0}", containsCertObj);

            // Show the use of the item[x] syntax.
            String aName = pkgProperties[5].Name;
            Console.WriteLine("Property 5 is {0}", aName);

            // Show the use of the MoveNext and Current methods.
            int i = 0;
            while ((myEnumerator.MoveNext()) && (myEnumerator.Current != null))
            {
                Console.WriteLine("[{0}] {1}", i++, myEnumerator.Current.Name);
            }
        }
    }
}

            Dim i As Integer =  0 
            While (myEnumerator.MoveNext()) &&(myEnumerator.Current <> Nothing)
                Console.WriteLine("[{0}] {1}",i = Console.WriteLine("[{0}] {1}",i + 1
