 * <!-- begin-model-doc -->
 * 
 * 
 * 	The method-permissionType specifies that one or more
 * 	security roles are allowed to invoke one or more enterprise
 * 	bean methods. The method-permissionType consists of an
 * 	optional description, a list of security role names or an
 * 	indicator to state that the method is unchecked for
 * 	authorization, and a list of method elements.
 * 
 * 	The security roles used in the method-permissionType
 * 	must be defined in the security-role elements of the
 * 	deployment descriptor, and the methods must be methods
 * 	defined in the enterprise bean's business, home, component
 *         and/or web service endpoint interfaces.
