Dispose	This implements the Dispose() interface to properly dispose of the build component. (Inherited from BuildComponentCore)
Dispose(Boolean)	This can be overridden by derived classes to add their own disposal code if necessary. (Inherited from BuildComponentCore)
Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
Finalize	This handles garbage collection to ensure proper disposal of the build component if not done explicitly with Dispose. (Inherited from BuildComponentCore)
GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
Initialize	This abstract method must be overridden to initialize the component (Overrides BuildComponentCoreInitialize(XPathNavigator))
MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
OnComponentEvent	This can be used to raise the ComponentEvent event with the specified event arguments. (Inherited from BuildComponentCore)
ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
WriteMessage(MessageLevel, String, Object)	This can be used to report a message (Inherited from BuildComponentCore)
WriteMessage(String, MessageLevel, String, Object)	This can be used to report a message for a specific topic ID (Inherited from BuildComponentCore)
