Custom logging with Integration Services

Integration Services 2005 allows you to insert custom log entries from a Script Task by sending events of a specific type to your log provider. You can use something like this from within a script:

Dts.Events.FireInformation(0, "CustomInfoHere", "This is a custom log entry thrown by a script task")

You can also use this technique to raise errors, warnings, progress information, etc...
