 * Represents a property of an OData entity with an EDM type.

 * `EdmTypeField`s are used as static properties of entities or EDM typed fields of complex type fields. They are generated from the OData metadata, i.e. for each property of
 * an OData entity, that has an EDM type, there is one static instance of `EdmTypeField` (or rather one of its subclasses) in the corresponding generated class file.
 * `EdmTypeField`s are used to represent the domain of more or less primitive values that can be used in select, filter and order by functions.
 * For example, when constructing a query on the BusinessPartner entity, an instance of `EdmTypeField<BusinessPartner, string>`
 * can be supplied as argument to the select function, e.g. `BusinessPartner.FIRST_NAME`.
