Create objects from a configuration file

  • NeilDiamond

    Not really. This is talking about something alot more specific than that.

    Would this approach be extended to putting standard code for error handling, logging, event handling, etc...

    Nope, I'm not saying that at all. This isn't a runtime thing - just an aid to developer productivity.

    e.g. All my packages will be inserting into the same database. I have a configuration set up for a connection manager for that database. Whenever I start to build a new package I can just point at an existing configuration and say "create the object that this configuration references in my current package". Then the developer continues as normal building his/her package with whatever functionality it requires.

    Hello Jamie,
    
    
    How far would you go 
    
    If I choose to export a whole package worth of configurations are you saying 
    that I should be able to take this to a blank package, point it at the config 
    file and it would at "Just Before Runtime" create everything for me 
    
    You can imagine the hit associated with this, validation would be costly.
    
    What about Connection Managers  sensitive data 
    
    How would you design workflow in a configuration file
