The results from this query would contain the QueryDataSets shown in Table B.14. It is worth noting that the pig “Pig1” is referenced as a pet by Sara, but is referenced as a farm animal by Sara’s parent Paul.

NOTE The RelativePath column and browse name (in parentheses in the NodeId column) are not in the QueryDataSet and are only shown here for clarity. The TypeDefinition NodeId would be an integer not the symbolic name that is included in the table.
