A shell script can then query the individual values for the attributes, using the DtDtsFileToAttributeValue command. The variable argument is set to an empty string if the file cannot be typed. This command differs from its corresponding C programming counterpart, in that it only returns the names of the defined attributes and not their values.

Returns the space-separated list of attribute names defined for the indicated data type. A shell script can then query the individual values for the attributes, using the DtDtsDataTypeToAttributeValue command. The variable argument is set to an empty string if the data type is not defined. This command differs from its corresponding C programming counterpart, in that it only returns the names of the defined attributes and not their values.
Returns a space-separated list of datatype names whose attribute indicated by the name argument has the value indicated by the value argument. If an error occurs, the variable argument is set to an empty string.
