PLM — PropertiesDescriptors for Operations with properties parameter

The Computational Viewpoint defines four Operations with parameter of type PLM_property:

PLM_resource_adapter.get_connection_factory
PLM_connection_factory.get_connection
PLM_connection.insert
PLM_connection.export

The allowed values for the propeties are implementation specific.
To enable an interactive client to provide its user
with the actual allowed or expected property values of a connected PLM Service implementation
The service should have complementary operations for each operation with properties parameter,
which returns descriptors for the actual allowed or expected property value:

PLM_resource_adapter.get_connection_factory_property_descriptors
PLM_connection_factory.get_connection_property_descriptors
PLM_connection.insert_property_descriptors
PLM_connection.export_property_descriptors

The descriptor for a single Property should contain:

the name of the property
the type of the property
the description of the property
an optional pattern to proove user input
and a flag if the property is required

With a PLM_resource_adapter.get_connection_factory_property_descriptors operation
there is no more need for the PLM_resource_adapter.get_connection_factory_names.
