-----------------------------------

             Summary: Consider allowing usie of instance annotations in $select and $expand
                 Key: ODATA-975
                 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-975
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: OData URL Conventions
    Affects Versions: V4.0_ERRATA02
         Environment: New Query Capabilities
            Reporter: Ralf Handl
             Fix For: V4.01_WD01


Instance annotations are rather similar to dynamic properties with a pre-known expressive name, i.e. the client can deduce from the name what type the dynamic property has.

For example: People?$filter=Age@numericValueException eq 'NaN'
would retrieve all people for which age is not a number.

If ODATA-735 gets accepted, clients can know up-front which instance annotations to expect, and can use them in filter conditions.

Consider this also for $select, would be more explicit than in an odata.include-annotations preference.
