[This topic is pre-release documentation and is subject to change in future releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]Gets a collection of management pack objects that are related to the list of identifiers, from any containment relationship. This is further filtered by the search criteria, traversal depth, and query options. Namespace: Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement
Assembly: Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Core (in microsoft.enterprisemanagement.core.dll)

Usage

Visual Basic
Dim instance As IEntityObjectsManagement
Dim instanceIds As ICollection(Of Guid)
Dim criteria As EnterpriseManagementObjectCriteria
Dim traversalDepth As TraversalDepth
Dim queryOptions As ObjectQueryOptions
Dim returnValue As Dictionary(Of Guid, IList(Of T))

returnValue = instance.GetRelatedObjects(instanceIds, criteria, traversalDepth, queryOptions)

Syntax

Visual Basic
Function GetRelatedObjects(Of T As EnterpriseManagementObject) ( _
		instanceIds As ICollection(Of Guid), _
		criteria As EnterpriseManagementObjectCriteria, _
		traversalDepth As TraversalDepth, _
		queryOptions As ObjectQueryOptions _
) As Dictionary(Of Guid, IList(Of T))
C#
