 /** The CIMMethod class is used to represent CIM methods in Pegasus.  /** The CIMMethod class is used to represent CIM methods in Pegasus. A CIMMethod
       consists of the following entities
       <ul>
           <li>Name of the method, a CIMName
           <li>CIMType of the method, a CIMType
           <li>Optional Qualifiers for the method
           <li>Optional Parameters for the method
       </ul>
       In addition, internally, there are the following additional attributes
       that are part of a CIMMethod.
       <ul>
           <li>propagated - attributed defining whether this CIMMethod is
           propagated from a superclass.  Note that this is normally set
           as part of resolving objects when they are placed in a repository
           and is NOT automatically set when creating a local object.  It
           can only logically be set in context of the superclass of which
           this CIMMethod is defined.
           <li>ClassOrigin - attribute defining the superclass in which this
           CIMMethod was originally defined.  This is normally se as part
           of resolving Class and instances.  It is available from objects
           retrieved from the repository.
       </ul>
       CIMMethod is a shared class and uses a representation object and reference
       counting to control the lifecycle of the objects.
