All Implemented Interfaces:

EdmGenerator

public class MetadataEdmGenerator
extends Object
implements EdmGenerator

Creates an EdmDataServices instance that models the EDM in terms of the EDM, call it a meta-EDM.

The current implementation is not 100% complete.

EntitySets implemented include: Schemas, Properties, EntityTypes, RootEntityTypes, ComplexTypes and RootComplexTypes
