Type Parameters
- TResultType
The type of the ObjectResult<(Of <(T>)>) returned when the query is executed with the applied filter.
OfType<(Of <(TResultType>)>) is used to filter query results by a specific entity or complex type. This supports an Entity Data Model (EDM) with object inheritance. For more information, see Entity Data Model Inheritance (Application Scenarios). The
OfType<(Of <(TResultType>)>) method can only be applied to an ObjectQuery<(Of <(T>)>) of an entity type or complex type that is defined in the EDM.
