Package instantiation

If i open a package inside Visual Studio 2005, what does this action mean? In another word, does it mean that, the package gets instantiated (i.e. a package object is created ) ?

If so, the package object should resides in the memory while the package is in the open mode.

In general, the answers to your questions are yes and yes. It is not clear, though, why you ask this. Is there something you have trouble with or just trying to understand the moving parts?

Thanks,

Hi,

I want to monitor SSIS packages running on system,I tried it with using RunningPackages class but it gives me running packages when I call method of RunninPackages class,

Can I monitor SSIS package execution continuously ? from where I get running package object

Thanks,

Omkar.

|||The question is related to the multiple instances in the memory. If i have opened the package inside IDE and I may want to execute the same package using other approaches such as invoked from C#.NET application or dtutil etc. Therefore each individuate application has its own package instance inside the process address space. And there should be mulitple loading for pakcage.... Please comments if this is wrong.|||

Well, it depends on what your package does. Your package may have some external dependencies that could cause contention. You will have different instances of the package object in different processes, but they still may share some resources/services.

Thanks,
