WBIOutboundServiceDescriptionImpl samples:
WBIOutboundServiceDescriptionImpl represents the object that populates function
descriptions for outbound service descriptions.
Implement the method shown in the section below.
setFunctionDescriptions

on objects and properties selected in MetadataSelection.
