The EdmTypeSemantics type exposes the following members.

Methods

	Name	Description
	ApplyType	Returns a reference to this row type definition.
	AsBinary	Returns a valid binary type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a binary type. Otherwise, it will return a bad binary type reference.
	AsCollection	Returns a valid collection type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a collection type. Otherwise, it will return a bad collection type reference.
	AsComplex	Returns a valid complex type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a complex type. Otherwise, it will return a bad complex type reference.
	AsDecimal	Returns a valid decimal type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a decimal type. Otherwise, it will return a bad decimal type reference.
	AsEntity	Returns a valid entity type reference to the type definition if this reference is of an entity type. Otherwise, it will return a bad entity type reference.
	AsEntityReference	Returns a valid entity reference type reference to the type definition if this reference is of an entity reference type. Otherwise, it will return a bad entity reference type reference.
	AsEnum	Returns a valid enumeration type reference to the type definition if this reference is of an enumeration type. Otherwise, it will return a bad enumeration type reference.
	AsPrimitive	Returns a valid primitive type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a primitive type. Otherwise, it will return a bad primitive type reference.
	AsRow	Returns a valid row type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a row type. Otherwise, it will return a bad row type reference.
	AsSpatial	Returns a valid spatial type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a spatial type. Otherwise, it will return a bad spatial type reference.
	AsString	Returns a valid string type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a string type. Otherwise, it will return a bad string type reference.
	AsStructured	Returns a valid structured type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a structured type. Otherwise, it will return a bad structured type reference.
	AsTemporal	Returns a valid temporal type reference to the type definition if this reference is of a temporal type. Otherwise, it will return a bad temporal type reference.
	InheritsFrom	Determines whether the potential base type is in the inheritance hierarchy of the type being tested.
	IsBinary	Determines whether this reference refers to a binary type.
	IsBoolean	Determines whether this reference refers to a Boolean type.

	IsDateTimeOffset	Determines whether this reference refers to a DateTimeOffset type.
	IsDecimal	Determines whether this reference refers to a decimal type.
	IsDouble	Determines whether this reference refers to a double type.
	IsEntity	Determines whether this reference refers to an entity type.
	IsEntityReference	Determines whether this reference refers to an entity type.
	IsEnum	Determines whether this reference refers to an enumeration type.
	IsFloating	Determines whether this reference refers to a floating point type.
	IsGuid	Determines whether this reference refers to a GUID type.
	IsInt16	Determines whether this reference refers to an Int16 type.
	IsInt32	Determines whether this reference refers to an Int32 type.
	IsInt64	Determines whether this reference refers to an Int64 type.
	IsIntegral(EdmPrimitiveTypeKind)	Determines whether this primitive type kind represents an integer type.
	IsIntegral(IEdmTypeReference)	Determines whether this reference refers to an integer type.
	IsOrInheritsFrom	Determines whether a type is equivalent to or derived from another type.
	IsPrimitive	Determines whether this reference refers to a primitive type.
	IsRow	Determines whether this reference refers to a row type.
	IsSByte	Determines whether this reference refers to a SByte type.
	IsSignedIntegral	Determines whether this reference refers to a signed integral type.
	IsSingle	Determines whether this reference refers to a single type.
	IsSpatial(EdmPrimitiveTypeKind)	Determines whether this type kind represents a spatial type.
	IsSpatial(IEdmType)	Determines whether this definition refers to a spatial type.
	IsSpatial(IEdmTypeReference)	Determines whether this reference refers to a spatial type.
