How to programmatically export SQL schema using Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo - sql-server

Question

I've built a simple utility in C# that uses Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo objects to export a database schema. This has been working great until I added a full text index.
When it exports the SQL for creating a full text index it does not include the columns that are defined in the index. For example, suppose I have a table named "Recipes" with 2 columns included in the FT index named "RecipeName" "Description". Dumping the schema using my utility produces the following SQL:
CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX ON [dbo].[Recipes]
KEY INDEX [PK_Recipes]ON ([ft], FILEGROUP [PRIMARY])
WITH (CHANGE_TRACKING = AUTO, STOPLIST = SYSTEM)
What I expect to be dumped is this (notice the columns):
CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX ON [dbo].[Recipes](
[Description] LANGUAGE [English],
[RecipeName] LANGUAGE [English]
)
KEY INDEX [PK_Recipes]ON ([ft], FILEGROUP [PRIMARY])
WITH (CHANGE_TRACKING = AUTO, STOPLIST = SYSTEM)
Here's the C# that generates the schema from a database file:
static void GenerateScript(string sourceDbPath, string destinationScriptPath)
{
try
{
string connString = string.Format(#"Data Source=.;AttachDbFilename={0};Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True", sourceDbPath);
SqlConnection sqlConn = new SqlConnection(connString);
ServerConnection serverConn = new ServerConnection(sqlConn);
Server server = new Server(serverConn);
Database database = server.Databases[sourceDbPath];
Transfer transfer = new Transfer(database);
ScriptingOptions options = new ScriptingOptions();
options.AppendToFile = false; // Overwrite file
options.ClusteredIndexes = true;
options.Indexes = true;
options.DriAll = true;
options.Triggers = true;
options.Bindings = true;
options.Default = true;
options.IncludeDatabaseContext = false;
options.IncludeHeaders = true;
options.FullTextIndexes = true;
options.SchemaQualify = true;
options.SchemaQualifyForeignKeysReferences = true;
options.ScriptSchema = true;
options.ScriptData = false;
options.ScriptDrops = false;
options.FileName = destinationScriptPath;
transfer.Options = options;
transfer.CopyAllFullTextCatalogs = true;
transfer.CopyAllFullTextStopLists = true;
transfer.CopyAllTables = true;
transfer.ScriptTransfer();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
Environment.Exit(-1);
}
}
Can anyone spot what I'm missing?

Answer 1

I was unable to find a combination of scripting options that would include the columns in the full text index create statement.
So instead I queried the database for the full text index information by executing the sp_help_fulltext_tables and sp_help_fulltext_columns stored procs. This allowed me to construct the statements by hand.
Not ideal but it works.
