DataMethod

open class DataMethod: ObjectBase

Encapsulates the metadata of an OData function or action.

  • Can this model element be removed by DataService.refreshMetadata. Defaults to false. Set this to true to indicate that the application is coded to be able able to function correctly without this model element.

    See also

    isRemoved.

    Declaration

    Swift

    final public var canBeRemoved: Bool = false

  • Has this model element been removed by a successful call to DataService.refreshMetadata? If `isRemoved == true, that implies that the old metadata (before refreshMetadata was called) did include this model element, and that the new metadata (after refreshMetadata was called) does not include this model element.
