The type of the Export<T> objects to return.

- contractName
Type: System.String
The contract name of the Export<T> objects to return, or nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or an empty string ("") to use the default contract name.
Return Value
Type: System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<Lazy<T>>
The Export<T> objects with the specified contract name, if found; otherwise, an empty ExportCollection<T> object.
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |

| ObjectDisposedException | The CompositionContainer object has been disposed of. |
Remarks
The returned Export<T> objects are instances of Export<T, TMetadataView> underneath, where TMetadataView is IDictionary<TKey, TValue>, TKey is String, and TValue is Object.
The default contract name is the result of calling the GetContractName method on T.
The contract name is compared by using the Ordinal property to perform a case-sensitive, non-linguistic comparison.
