public class MethodMultiProperty
extends AbstractMultiPackagedProperty<Method[]>

Defines a property type that can specify multiple methods to use as part of a rule. Rule developers can limit the rules to those within designated packages per the 'legalPackages' argument in the constructor which can be an array of partial package names, i.e., ["java.lang", "com.mycompany" ].
