canCreate

canCreate(): Boolean;

The canCreate method of the ExternalCollection class returns true if instances of the member-type of the external collection can be created.

This method returns false if the data-source is read-only or the class of the external collection members is read-only. An external class is read-only if it is based on a relational view or a join query defined by the External Schema Wizard.
