Methods

	Name	Description
	ContainsLocalizedDisplayName	Indicates whether the object contains a localized display name. (Inherited from MetadataObject.)
	CopyAclAcrossChildren	Copies the list of access control entries (ACEs) associated with the metadata object to all of its child metadata objects. Each individually securable metadata object inherits from this class and provides its own implementation of this method. (Inherited from IndividuallySecurableMetadataObject.)
	CopyAclAcrossChildrenForSetting	Copies the list of access control entries (ACEs) associated with the metadata object to all of its child metadata objects for the specified setting. Each individually securable metadata object inherits from this class and provides its own implementation of this method. (Inherited from IndividuallySecurableMetadataObject.)
	CopyAclToSetting	Copies the list of access control entries (ACEs) associated with the metadata object to the object setting. (Inherited from IndividuallySecurableMetadataObject.)
	Delete	Deletes the MetadataObject. (Inherited from MetadataObject.)
	GetAccessControlList()	Gets the access control list (ACL) from the containing entity. (Inherited from AccessControlledMetadataObject.)
	GetAccessControlList(String)	Gets a list of the individually securable child metadata objects. (Inherited from IndividuallySecurableMetadataObject.)
	GetAccessControlList(String, Boolean)	Gets a list of the individually securable child metadata objects. (Inherited from IndividuallySecurableMetadataObject.)
	GetById	Get the method given its identifier (ID).
	MergeXml	Reads the Method definition from the specified resource XML for the specified external content type, and then merges its properties, localized names, and access control entries with the existing Method in the metadata store.
	Read	Reads a Method object from the Business Data Connectivity (BDC) service metadata store, overwriting the current value of the fields of the object with whatever was present in the metadata store. (Overrides MetadataObject.Read().)
	ReadCommon	This member is reserved for internal use and is not intended to be used directly from your code. (Inherited from MetadataObject.)
	ReadXml	Reads the Method definition from the specified metadata XML for the specified external content type.
	SetAccessControlList(IAccessControlList)	Sets the access control list (ACL) for an individually securable metadata object. (Inherited from IndividuallySecurableMetadataObject.)
	SetAccessControlList(IAccessControlList, String)	Sets the access control list (ACL) for an individually securable metadata object for the specified setting. (Inherited from IndividuallySecurableMetadataObject.)
	ToString	(Inherited from Object.)
	Update	Updates the object. (Inherited from MetadataObject.)
	WriteXml(PackageContents)	Returns the XML representation of the MetadataObject. (Inherited from MetadataObject.)
	WriteXml(PackageContents, String)	Returns the XML representation of the MetadataObject, which is generated using the properties, localized names, and access control entries from the specified setting. (Inherited from MetadataObject.)
