Variable.CreationName Property
Gets the string that the runtime engine gives when it creates an instance of the Variable object and adds the object to the Variables collection. This property is read-only.
Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS (in Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property CreationName As String
Get
'Usage
Dim instance As Variable
Dim value As String
value = instance.CreationName
public string CreationName { get; }
public:
virtual property String^ CreationName {
String^ get () sealed;

final function get CreationName () : String
Property Value
Type: System.String
A String that contains the name. It may be the fully qualified assembly name (for managed assemblies), or it may be the PROGID or CLSID (for COM DLLs).

Examples
The following example creates a package, adds a ForEachLoop, and adds a variable to the Variables collection of the ForEachLoop. It then retrieves and sets properties on the variable and displays them for viewing, including the CreationName.
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Package p = new Package();
// Add a sequence to the package executables collection
Sequence seq = (Sequence)p.Executables.Add("STOCK:SEQUENCE");
// Add a ForEachLoop to the Sequence
ForEachLoop feLoop = (ForEachLoop)seq.Executables.Add("STOCK:FOREACHLOOP");
// Add a variable, v, to the variable collection
// of the ForEach loop.
Variable v = feLoop.Variables.Add("v", false, "global", 100);
// Get and set different variable properties
// Creation Name (read-only)
String createName = v.CreationName;
// Description (read/write)
v.Description = "my new v Description";
String vDesc = v.Description;
// ID (read-only)
String vID = v.ID;
// Name (read/write)
String oldName = v.Name;
v.Name = "my_new_V_name";
String newName = v.Name;
// Namespace (read/write)
String oldNamespace = v.Namespace;
v.Namespace = "my_new_v_Namespace";
String newNamespace = v.Namespace;
// Properties (read-only)
int pmCount = v.Properties.Count;
// Qualified Name (read-only)
String QName = v.QualifiedName;
// RaiseChangedEvent (read/write)
Boolean oldraiseChEvt = v.RaiseChangedEvent;
v.RaiseChangedEvent = true;
Boolean raiseChangedEvent = v.RaiseChangedEvent;
// Read-only (read/write)
Boolean vReadOnly = v.ReadOnly;
v.ReadOnly = true;
Boolean newVReadOnly = v.ReadOnly;
// System Variable (read-only)
Boolean sysVar = v.SystemVariable;
// Type (read-only)

// Value (read/write)
Object vValue = v.Value;
