Parameters
- typeName 
 Type: System.String- The data source–specific name of the specified type to retrieve data objects for. 
- restrictions 
 Type: array<System.Object[]- The restrictions for filtering the data objects returned. 
- properties 
 Type: array<System.String[]- Specifies the requested property values of the data objects. The current version of DDEX does not support properties. 
- filter 
 Type: System.String- A filter to further narrow down the selection of data objects when there is no one-to-one mapping between the mapped type and the data source–specific type. The format of the filter is identical to the format of the DataColumn expression. 
- ordering 
 Type: System.String- A string of comma-delimited data objects representing the sort ordering of the returned data objects. 
Return Value
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.Services.IVsDataObjectCollection
An IVsDataObjectCollection containing the data objects.
