IDTSExecutionMetrics.StartTime

Examples

The following code example assumes a package named pkg has been created. The package is executed, and the start time, stop time, and duration of the run is recorded. The variables are created after the package is run to capture the information. The pkg object can be replaced by any container, task, or object that inherits from DtsContainer, as DtsContainer inherits the IDTSExecutionMetrics interface.

pkg.Execute();
DateTime dtStart = pkg.StartTime;
DateTime dtStop = pkg.StopTime;
int pgkDuration = pkg.ExecutionDuration;
pkg.Execute()
Dim dtStart As DateTime =  pkg.StartTime 
Dim dtStop As DateTime =  pkg.StopTime 
Dim pgkDuration As Integer =  pkg.ExecutionDuration
