Path: String;
The Path property determines the path to directory with tables, from which data is imported.
Executing the example requires that the repository contains an ETL task with the Etl identifier, and the Base_1.Dbf database file in the disk C root directory.
Sub Main;
Var
MB: IMetabase;
MObj: IMetabaseObject;
EtlTask: IEtlTask;
EtlProvider: IEtlPlainDataProvider;
DbaseProvider: IDtDbaseProvider;
WxProvider: IWxRectangle;
WxETLProvider: IWxETLObject;
Begin
MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
//ETL task search. Repository object with the ETL identifier
MObj := MB.ItemById("Etl").Edit;
EtlTask := MObj As IEtlTask;
//Start of the source creation
//The Import From Dbase object creation
EtlProvider := EtlTask.Create(EtlObjectType.PlainDataDbaseProvider) As IEtlPlainDataProvider;
EtlProvider := EtlProvider.Edit;
EtlProvider.Id := "Dbase_Provider";
EtlProvider.Name := "Import from Dbase";
EtlProvider.Description := "Import from Dbase";
//Set up data provider
DbaseProvider := EtlProvider.Provider As IDtDbaseProvider;
DbaseProvider.Path := "c:\";
DbaseProvider.DriverVersion := "dBASE IV";
DbaseProvider.Query := "Select * from Base_1";
EtlProvider.FillDefault;
//Save provider
EtlProvider.Save;
//End of provider creation
//Start of visual object creation
WxProvider := EtlTask.Workspace.CreateRectangle;
WxETLProvider := New WxETLObject.Create;
WxETLProvider.ETLObject := EtlProvider;
WxProvider.Style.TextPosition := WxTextPosition.Bottom;
WxProvider.Style.PictureMarginTop := -10;
WxProvider.PinPosition := New GxPointF.Create(50, 50);
WxProvider.Extension := WxETLProvider As IWxShapeExtension;
//End of visual object creation
//Save Etl task
MObj.Save;
End Sub Main;
After executing the example the Import from Dbase object is created in the ETL task. The provider imports data from Base_1.Dbf database file. During connection the dBASE IV drivers are used.
