Method Call Parameter gets value from exactly one Data Flow

Data Flow supplies value for zero, one or many Method Call Parameter

---

We need to supply a value for each Parameter in a Method Call. This value can be any kind of data, so it is delivered by a single Data Flow input into the Method Call.

See the Method Call class description for an illustration of one such input.

As it has a wide variety of use cases, a given Data Flow may or not supply a Method Call Parameter value to any number of destinations.
