SSIS Script Task : How to log to output using Dts.Log

Question

I searched a lot for this but no luck.

I have a script task and inside that I've written some C# code. I have a look and I want to print output like what we see in Output Window

I'm using Dts.Log() using below code:

Dts.Log("List of files are loaded: ", 0, new byte[0]);

But I don't see anything in output window.

I already have enabled logging as you see:

I know if I use

Dts.Events.FireInformation

It does the job, but I like to know how I can use Dts.Log() for this purpose.

A very old question, but it may be worth answering anyway.

When you use Dts.Log, it doesn't go to the output screen but to the log window. So you should open the SSIS menu and select the "Log Events" entry.

If your SSIS menu is missing that option, try clicking on the control flow window or the Script Task node.
