The IEdmEntityContainer type exposes the following members.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Elements	Gets a collection of the elements of this entity container.
	Name	Gets the name of this element. (Inherited from IEdmNamedElement.)
	Namespace	Gets the namespace this schema element belongs to. (Inherited from IEdmSchemaElement.)
	SchemaElementKind	Gets the kind of this schema element. (Inherited from IEdmSchemaElement.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	FindEntitySet	Searches for an entity set with the given name in this entity container and returns null if no such set exists.
	FindFunctionImports	Searches for function imports with the given name in this entity container and returns null if no such function import exists.

Extension Methods

	Name	Description
	EntitySets	Gets the entity sets of the specified container. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
	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.)
	FullName	Gets the full name with the specified element. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
	FunctionImports	Gets the function imports of the specified container. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
	IsBad	Indicates whether this element contains errors returned by the Errors(IEdmElement) method. (Defined by ValidationExtensionMethods.)
	Location	Gets the location of the specified item. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
	ToTraceString	Returns the text representation of the current object. (Defined by ToTraceStringExtensionMethods.)
	VocabularyAnnotations	Gets an annotatable element's vocabulary annotations as seen from a particular model. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
