Extension Methods

  Name Description
Public Extension Method EntitySets Gets the entity sets of the specified container. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension Method Errors Gets the errors, if any, that belong to this element or elements that this element contains. For example errors for a structural type include the errors of the type itself and errors of its declared properties. The method does not analyze elements referenced by this element. For example errors of a property do not include errors from its type. (Defined by ValidationExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension Method FullName Gets the full name with the specified element. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension Method FunctionImports Gets the function imports of the specified container. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension Method IsBad Indicates whether this element contains errors returned by the Errors(IEdmElement) method. (Defined by ValidationExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension Method Location Gets the location of the specified item. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension Method ToTraceString Returns the text representation of the current object. (Defined by ToTraceStringExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension Method VocabularyAnnotations Gets an annotatable element's vocabulary annotations as seen from a particular model. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
