All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Deprecated Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`void`	`addToClientRoots(IMendixIdentifier id)` Not for public use
`IContext`	`createContext()` Create new context.
`IContext`	`createContext(IContext.ExecutionType executionType)`
`void`	`destroy()` Destroy this session, so that the garbage collector can reclaim memory held by this session.
`Set<IMendixIdentifier>`	`getClientRoots()`
`com.mendix.core.component.LocalComponent`	`getComponent()`
`IContext`	`getContext()` Deprecated. use createContext instead.
`Map<String,Object>`	`getData()` Deprecated. There are two alternatives, based on the required behavior: 1. Using IContext.getData() for data that requires the life-time of the current request only 2. Using an entity for data that has to live in this session spanning multiple requests (entity does not have to be committed for this to work)
`Set<String>`	`getGrantableRoleNames()`
