The active versions of the external content type are deleted last. If the principal, in whose context this method is being called, does not have permission to delete one or more versions of the external content type, this method will fail with an AccessDeniedException, when such a version is encountered. Versions that are deleted before the exception is thrown will not be reverted and other versions that the user may have permissions to delete will not be deleted.
