AccessControlledMetadataObject Class

NOTE: This API is now obsolete.

Represents a Business Data Catalog metadata object whose access can be controlled by permissions. All 13 administration metadata objects and ApplicationRegistry inherit from this class and therefore can be controlled by permissions. This class cannot be instantiated.

Remarks

Of the metadata objects, only ApplicationRegistry, LobSystem, Entity, Method, and MethodInstance have their own unique individually settable access control list (ACL). The other metadata objects use the ACLs from their closest individually securable parents.

For example, Parameter is a child of Method. Method is an individually securable object, so a user can set the ACL on the Method. Parameter is access controlled, but not individually securable, so it needs an ACL, and it will borrow or use the ACL of the nearest parent that is individually securable; in this case, this is the Method.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
