This method is added for tools to have access to a component schema in memory for their operations. The tool will call this method when it requires a certain component schema loaded and made available to the tool adapter. For instance, during the Retrieve operation, the tool may need access to its own component schema. In such a case, the tool will call this method just before invoking retrieve call to EFCommonUI. The tool will identify the component schema to be loaded.
To make the component schema container available to tool adapter a new interface, called IEFAdapter9 is added, which has property CompSchemaIContainer for tools to implement. The tool Adapter implementation will have a local pointer to be set when the EFCommonUI calls this property after the component schema is loaded. (See IEFAdapter9 Interface for details.)
