IDtVfpConsumer.Path

Syntax

Path: String;

Description

The Path property determines the path to database, or to directory with free Visual Foxpro tables.

Example

Executing the example requires that the repository contains an ETL task with the Etl identifier, and the Visual Foxpro Data.dbc database in the disk C root directory. There is a Table_1 table in the database.

Sub Main;

Var

MB: IMetabase;

MObj: IMetabaseObject;

EtlTask: IEtlTask;

EtlConsumer: IEtlPlainDataConsumer;

VfpConsumer: IDtVfpConsumer;

WxConsumer: IWxRectangle;

WxETLConsumer: 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 provider creation

//The Export To Visual Foxpro object creation

EtlConsumer := EtlTask.Create(EtlObjectType.PlainDataVfpConsumer) As IEtlPlainDataConsumer;

EtlConsumer := EtlConsumer.Edit;

EtlConsumer.Id := "Vfp_Consumer";

EtlConsumer.Name := "Export to Visual Foxpro";

EtlConsumer.Description := "Export to Visual Foxpro";

//Set up data provider

VfpConsumer := EtlConsumer.Consumer As IDtVfpConsumer;

VfpConsumer.Path := "c:\Data.dbc";

VfpConsumer.Table := "Table_1";

EtlConsumer.FillDefault;

//Save provider

EtlConsumer.Save;

//End of provider creation

//Start of visual object creation

WxConsumer := EtlTask.Workspace.CreateRectangle;

WxETLConsumer := New WxETLObject.Create;

WxETLConsumer.ETLObject := EtlConsumer;

WxConsumer.Style.TextPosition := WxTextPosition.Bottom;

WxConsumer.Style.PictureMarginTop := -10;

WxConsumer.PinPosition := New GxPointF.Create(50, 50);

WxConsumer.Extension := WxETLConsumer As IWxShapeExtension;

//End of visual object creation

//Save Etl task

MObj.Save;

End Sub Main;

After executing the example the Visual Foxpro object is created in the ETL task. The consumer exports data to the Table_1 table, stored in the Foxpro database named Data.dbc.
