Constructors

Name	Description
EdmTypeDefinition(String, String, EdmPrimitiveTypeKind)	Initializes a new instance of the EdmTypeDefinition class with Int32 underlying type.
EdmTypeDefinition(String, String, IEdmPrimitiveType)	Initializes a new instance of the EdmTypeDefinition class.

Properties

Name	Description
FullName	Gets the full name of this schema element.
Name	Gets the name of this type definition.
Namespace	Gets the namespace this schema element belongs to.
SchemaElementKind	Gets the kind of this schema element.
TypeKind	Gets the kind of this type.
UnderlyingType	Gets the underlying type of this type definition.

Methods

Name	Description
ToString()	Returns the text representation of the current object. (Inherited from EdmType)

Extension Methods

Name	Description
AsActualType(IEdmType)	Returns the actual type of the given type. If the given type is type definition, the actual type is its underlying type; otherwise, return the given type itself.
AsElementType(IEdmType)	Gets the element type of a collection definition or itself of a non-collection definition referred to by the type reference.
Errors(IEdmElement)	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.
FullName(IEdmSchemaElement)	Gets the full name of the element.
FullTypeName(IEdmType)	Gets the full name of the definition referred to by the type reference.
GetSymbolicString(IEdmVocabularyAnnotatable)	Gets the symbolic string of an annotated element. In the next breaking change, it's better to add a property into IEdmVocabularyAnnotatable.
IsBad(IEdmElement)	Returns true if this element contains errors returned by the Errors(IEdmElement) method.
IsBinary(IEdmType)	Returns true if this definition refers to a binary type.
IsDecimal(IEdmType)	Returns true if this definition refers to a decimal type.
IsEquivalentTo(IEdmType, IEdmType)	Returns true if the compared type is semantically equivalent to this type. Schema types (IEdmSchemaType) are compared by their object refs.
IsGeography(IEdmType)	Returns true if this definition refers to a geography type.
IsGeometry(IEdmType)	Returns true if this definition refers to a geometry type.
IsOnSameTypeHierarchyLineWith(IEdmType, IEdmType)	Determines whether thisType is the same as otherType, or thisType derives from otherType, or otherType derives from thisType.
IsOpen(IEdmType)	Returns true if the definition of this reference is open.
IsOrInheritsFrom(IEdmType, IEdmType)	Determines if a type is equivalent to or derived from another type.
IsSpatial(IEdmType)	Returns true if this definition refers to a spatial type.
IsStream(IEdmType)	Returns true if this reference refers to a stream type.
IsString(IEdmType)	Returns true if this definition refers to a string type.
IsTemporal(IEdmType)	Returns true if this definition refers to a temporal type.
IsUntyped(IEdmType)	Returns true if this definition refers to an untyped type.
Location(IEdmElement)	Gets the location of this element.
ShortQualifiedName(IEdmSchemaElement)	Gets the Short Qualified name of the element.
ToTraceString(IEdmSchemaElement)	Returns the text representation of the current object.
ToTraceString(IEdmSchemaType)	Returns the text representation of the current object.
ToTraceString(IEdmType)	Returns the text representation of the current object.
VocabularyAnnotations(IEdmVocabularyAnnotatable, IEdmModel)	Gets an annotatable element's vocabulary annotations as seen from a particular model.
