</div>You can achieve the same effect by using the :Action tag instead, as<br>
mst suggested in reply to the same thread:<br>

</div></blockquote><div><br>I'm just after a bit more flexibility. Perhaps that limitation could be based on what dispatch types are available (i.e. don't allow Private with any other dispatch types such as Path) which would allow user-defined attributes on Private methods. Perhaps a better question is if there is any thought about only creating actions if the method has one or more of a defined set of attributes instead of just any attribute? I'm not clear if the intent is that any method with attributes becomes an action or if only a limited set of attributes should make a method an action.<br>
<br><br>Sorry, I know this is not a very important issues. At work we have been kicking around some ideas for a new ACL system that uses method attributes and this limiation came up again. But, it's easy to work around it.<br>
