I am getting the below error when trying to generate a package through BIML using a ScriptTask as a datasource. I have a large (circa 5GB) XML file to load and wanted to use a StreamReader to get the data into the database.
'Output0Buffer' does not contain a definition for 'PORTF_LIST' and no extension method 'PORTF_LIST' accepting a first argument of type 'Output0Buffer' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?).
This is occurring for each column. The columns are dynamic and come from a separate method in a c# class looking at the dacpac so should be the same names and casing everywhere.
Sample of the file as below:
<ANALYTICS>
<INSTRUMENTS ASOF_DATE="3/31/2017" CREATE_DATE="4/2/2017" RECORDS="3763">
<INSTRUMENT>
<PORTF_LIST>XX1245897</PORTF_LIST>
<PRT_FULL_NAME>Convertible Bonds</PRT_FULL_NAME>
<ISIN>11803384</ISIN>
</INSTRUMENT>
</INSTRUMENTS>
</ANALYTICS>
Output buffer is defined as below (there are 250 odd columns, but all follow the same pattern:
<OutputBuffers>
<OutputBuffer Name="Output0" IsSynchronous="false">
<Columns>
<Column Name="PORTF_LIST" DataType="String" Length="255"/>
<Column Name="PRT_FULL_NAME" DataType="String" Length="255"/>
<Column Name="ISIN" DataType="String" Length="255"/>
</Columns>
</OutputBuffer>
</OutputBuffers>
The script task code where I am trying to add to the buffer is below:
<#@ property name="Elements" type="String" #>
<#@ property name="Columns" type="String" #>
<#@ property name="BufferColumns" type="String" #>
<#@ property name="RootElement" type="String" #>

Define what your buffer is called and what it looks like
Must set IsSynchronous as false. Otherwise it is a transformation
(one row enters, one row leaves) and not a source.

I've checked the code in a console app and it reads the XML file fine, but no luck with the BIML. There are about 250 odd columns so I am trying to avoid doing this manually so if you have any ideas what I am doing wrong I'd really appreciate it!
sourceFile's contents into the question?
