NAME

Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Assignment::GlobalVar - a class to represent a DTS DynamicPropertiesTaskAssignment object

SYNOPSIS

    use warnings;
    use strict;
    use Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Application;
    use Test::More;
    use XML::Simple;

    my $xml = XML::Simple->new();
    my $config = $xml->XMLin('test-config.xml');

    my $app = Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Application->new($config->{credential});

    my $package = $app->get_db_package( { id               => '', version_id => '', 
                                          name             => $config->{package}, 
                                          package_password => '' } );

    my $iterator = $package->get_dynamic_props();

    while ( my $dyn_prop = $iterator->() ) {

        foreach my $assignment_prop ( @{ $dyn_prop->get_properties() } ) {

            if ( $assignment_prop->get_type() eq 'GlobalVar' ) {

                            print $assignment_prop->to_string(), "\n";

            }

        }
    }

DESCRIPTION

Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Assignment::GlobalVar is a subclass of Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Assignment superclass. It represents a DTS DynamicPropertiesTaskAssignment object that has a SourceGlobalVariable property defined.

Unless you want to extend the DTS API is quite probably that you're going to use Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Assignment::GlobalVar returned by the get_properties method from Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Task::DynamicProperty class.

EXPORT

None by default.

METHODS

Inherits all methods from Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Assignment.

new

Extends superclass method new by modifying the source attribute.

get_source

Overrided method from Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Assignment class. Returns a string with the name of a Data Transformation Services (DTS) package global variable that contains the value to which a package object property will be set by the DynamicPropertiesTask object. See Win32::SqlServer::DTS::Assignment method for more information.
