Get the HTTP method specific constraints. Each HttpMethodConstraint names an HTTP protocol method and defines the protection to be applied to it.
Returns:an array of HttpMethodConstraint elements each defining the protection to be applied to one HTTP protocol method. For any HTTP method name, there must be at most one corresponding element in the returned array. If the returned array is of zero length, it indicates that no HTTP method specific constraints are defined.
