Summary Represents an entity set in an OData entity container.
Entity sets define collections of entities that can be accessed through the OData service.
They provide the addressable resources that clients can query, create, update, and delete.
Each entity set is associated with a specific entity type and may include navigation
property bindings to establish relationships with other entity sets.
Constructors Initializes a new instance of the EdmEntitySet class.
Syntax Initializes a new instance of the EdmEntitySet class with the specified name and entity type.
Syntax public EdmEntitySet ( string name , string entityType )
Parameters Name Type Description namestringThe name of the entity set. entityTypestringThe entity type of the entities in this set.
Exceptions Exception Description ArgumentExceptionThrown when name or entityType is null or whitespace.
Inherited Syntax Properties Gets or sets the annotations for this entity set.
Syntax public System . Collections . Generic . Dictionary < string , object > Annotations { get ; set ; }
Property Value Type: System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<string, object>
A dictionary of annotations that provide additional metadata about the entity set.
Annotations can be used to specify additional behaviors, constraints, or metadata
that are not captured by the standard OData model elements.
Gets or sets the entity type of the entities in this set.
Syntax public required string EntityType { get ; set ; }
Property Value Type: string
The fully qualified name of the entity type for entities in this set.
All entities in the set must be instances of this entity type or its derived types.
This determines the structure and properties available for entities in the set.
Gets the short name of the entity type (without namespace).
Syntax public string EntityTypeName { get ; }
Property Value Type: string
The entity type name without the namespace prefix.
Gets the namespace of the entity type.
Syntax public string EntityTypeNamespace { get ; }
Property Value Type: string
The namespace portion of the entity type, or an empty string if no namespace.
Gets a value indicating whether this entity set has any navigation property bindings.
Syntax public bool HasNavigationPropertyBindings { get ; }
Property Value Type: bool
true if the entity set has navigation property bindings; otherwise, false.
Gets or sets a value indicating whether change tracking is enabled for this entity set.
Syntax public bool IncludeInServiceDocument { get ; set ; }
Property Value Type: bool
true if change tracking is enabled; otherwise, false.
When change tracking is enabled, the service can provide delta tokens and support
for change tracking queries, allowing clients to efficiently retrieve only changed data.
Gets or sets the name of the entity set.
Syntax public required string Name { get ; set ; }
Property Value Type: string
The name used to address this entity set in OData URLs.
The entity set name appears in the URL path when accessing the collection
or individual entities within the set.
Gets or sets the navigation property bindings for this entity set.
Syntax public System . Collections . Generic . List < Microsoft . OData . Mcp . Core . Models . EdmNavigationPropertyBinding > NavigationPropertyBindings { get ; set ; }
Property Value Type: System.Collections.Generic.List<Microsoft.OData.Mcp.Core.Models.EdmNavigationPropertyBinding>
A collection of navigation property bindings that establish relationships with other entity sets.
Navigation property bindings specify which entity set should be used when following
a navigation property from entities in this set. They establish the connections
between related entity sets in the model.
Methods Adds an annotation to this entity set.
Syntax public void AddAnnotation ( string term , object value )
Parameters Name Type Description termstringThe annotation term. valueobjectThe annotation value.
Exceptions Exception Description ArgumentExceptionThrown when term is null or whitespace.
Adds a navigation property binding to this entity set.
Syntax public void AddNavigationPropertyBinding ( string navigationPropertyPath , string target )
Parameters Name Type Description navigationPropertyPathstringThe path of the navigation property. targetstringThe target entity set name.
Exceptions Exception Description ArgumentExceptionThrown when navigationPropertyPath or target is null or whitespace.
Override Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current entity set.
Syntax public override bool Equals ( object obj )
Parameters Name Type Description objobject?The object to compare with the current entity set.
Returns Type: bool
true if the specified object is equal to the current entity set; otherwise, false.
Inherited Virtual Syntax public virtual bool Equals ( object obj )
Parameters Name Type Description objobject?-
Returns Type: bool
Inherited Syntax public static bool Equals ( object objA , object objB )
Parameters Name Type Description objAobject?- objBobject?-
Returns Type: bool
Gets an annotation value by term.
Syntax public T GetAnnotation < T >( string term )
Parameters Name Type Description termstringThe annotation term.
Returns Type: T?
The annotation value, or the default value of T if not found.
Type Parameters
T - The type of the annotation value.
Override Returns a hash code for the current entity set.
Syntax public override int GetHashCode ()
Returns Type: int
A hash code for the current entity set.
Inherited Virtual Syntax public virtual int GetHashCode ()
Returns Type: int
Gets a navigation property binding by navigation property path.
Syntax public Microsoft . OData . Mcp . Core . Models . EdmNavigationPropertyBinding GetNavigationPropertyBinding ( string navigationPropertyPath )
Parameters Name Type Description navigationPropertyPathstringThe path of the navigation property.
Returns Type: Microsoft.OData.Mcp.Core.Models.EdmNavigationPropertyBinding?
The navigation property binding with the specified path, or null if not found.
Inherited Syntax public System . Type GetType ()
Returns Type: System.Type
Inherited Syntax protected internal object MemberwiseClone ()
Returns Type: object
Inherited Syntax public static bool ReferenceEquals ( object objA , object objB )
Parameters Name Type Description objAobject?- objBobject?-
Returns Type: bool
Removes a navigation property binding from this entity set.
Syntax public bool RemoveNavigationPropertyBinding ( string navigationPropertyPath )
Parameters Name Type Description navigationPropertyPathstringThe path of the navigation property to remove.
Returns Type: bool
true if the binding was removed; otherwise, false.
Override Returns a string representation of the entity set.
Syntax public override string ToString ()
Returns Type: string
A string containing the entity set name and entity type.
Inherited Virtual Syntax public virtual string ToString ()
Returns Type: string?
