The ODATA $expand=* term expands all properties of an entity. But in the TPH pattern, it expands only the base class reference properties:
public abstract class Person
{
[Key]
public int Id {get; set; }
public Place BirthPlace { get; set;}
}
public class Customer : Person
{
public Job Job{get;set;}
}
public class Employee : Person
{
public Post Post{get;set;}
}
Executing ODATA query: /odata/Persons?$expand=* only expands the Place.BirthPlace reference property; not the Customer.Job nor Employee.Post
But expanding a single entity works well as expected: /odata/Persons(411)?$expand=* expands Place.BirthPlace and either Customer.Job or Employee.Post based on the type of the entity
How to expand all referenced entities in the TPH scenario?
