[Abstract, Version ("2.6.0"), Description (
    "  CIM_MethodParameters represents a set of values to be used "
    "as the parameters of a method. These parameters may be passed "
    "to the method, diretly used by the method in its invocation, "
    "or accessed by the method when it is called. The properties "
    "of a concrete subclass of MethodParameters are mapped to the "
    "parameters of a method by the method itself or by the method "
    "caller. This is an implementation detail independent of the "
    "definition of the class. For ease of use, property names "
    "should match parameter names. \n"
    "  Property values should be set before the method is invoked. " 
    "The ModelCorrespondence qualifier can be used to indicate " 
    "if the property value should come from another class's property. " 
    "The instances that the property values should be gleaned from " 
    "should be associated with MethodParameters using the Parameter"
    "ValueSources association. If the property is declared as an "
    "array, then the same property value (identified by the Model"
    "Correspondence) will be retrieved from all appropriate "
    "ParameterValueSources instances and stored in the array. If "
    "the property is declared as an array and the Model"
    "Correspondence is to an array property, then only one instance "
    "of the array will be copied from one ParameterValueSource. " 
    "If the property is not declared as an array and there are " 
    "multiple instances of the class and property associated with " 
    "it through ModelCorrespondence where the values are not all "
    "the same, then an error will occur and the property's value "
    "will not be set. Several MethodParameters instances can be "
    "associated with any ManagedElement's methods. This allows the " 
    "maintenance of 'canned' method invocation and reduces the " 
    "overhead of recreating all method parameters for every method " 
    "invocation.") ]

        "The resetValues method updates the values of the properties "
        "of MethodParameters which have ModelCorrespondence to the " 
        "SourceME ManagedElement. This allows the association of " 
        "several source candidates with the MethodParameters with " 
        "one being chosen as the source for this set of values. " 
        "If resetValues is invoked and sourceME is null, then all " 
        "associated MEs in ParameterValueSources will be used "
