如何用simple.odata.client扩展分层数据

Question

在我们的数据模型中，我们有分层数据。例如，我们有以下结构：

Product  : Category       (one to many)
Category : CategoryType   (one to many)

如果我们想拥有某个产品的相关类别以及每个类别的相关类别类型，我们可以使用这样的url来构建这个类别：

<urlbase>/Products(1)?$expand=Category($expand=CategoryType)

这在浏览器中运行得很好。问题是如何在simple.odata.client OData v4中做到这一点？我们正在尝试这一点，但并没有让它发挥作用：

var client = new ODataClient(ConfigSettingsProvider.ODataBaseUri);
var client
    .For<Product>()
    .Filter(p=> p.Id == 1)
    .Expand(p => p.Categories)
    .Expand(c => c.CategoryTypes)
    .FindEntriesAsync();

请检查包含非类型化、类型化和动态版本的Simple.OData.Client测试：
