Dynamically set properties in pipeline component

Question

I have a custom pipeline component which Encrypts, ZIPs and password protects a message prior to emailing. I have a requirement to dynamically set the password from the orchestration. I can't find any examples on how to do this although I see that there is BTS.SendPipelineConfig. I presume I pass the altered config to this, but I don't know how to access the existing xml config for the pipeline.

Are there any tutorials or examples avaiable for this? I have searched to no avail. Thanks.

I think you would be better served to add a context property to the message that is set in the orchestration. This context property could be read by your pipeline component.

Thanks Ben, the requirement has disappeared for the moment but I will revisit. – Nigel B May 15 '12 at 21:45

After some deliberation I have decided to write the code within my custom component. I would have preferred to keep this component generic but writing the password within it makes it more secure and quicker to develop.
