Examples

q = new QueryExpression();
q.EntityName = "account";
q.ColumnSet = new ColumnSet();
q.ColumnSet.Columns.Add("name");

q.LinkEntities.Add(new LinkEntity("account", "contact", "primarycontactid", "contactid", JoinOperator.Inner));
q.LinkEntities[0].Columns.AddColumns("firstname", "lastname");
q.LinkEntities[0].EntityAlias = "temp";

q.Criteria = new FilterExpression();
q.Criteria.AddCondition("accountnumber", ConditionOperator.Equal, accountNumber);
q.Orders.Add(new OrderExpression("name", OrderType.Descending));
q.Distinct = true;
EntityCollection ec = this.Context.Proxy.RetrieveMultiple(q);

Log.Assert(ec.Entities.Count == 3, "Expected 3 entities, received {0}", ec.Entities.Count);
Log.Assert((string)ec.Entities[0]["name"] == "SdkAccount3", "First Entity should be SdkAccount3");
Log.Assert((string)ec.Entities[1]["name"] == "SdkAccount2", "First Entity should be SdkAccount2");
Log.Assert((string)ec.Entities[2]["name"] == "SdkAccount1", "First Entity should be SdkAccount1");
