named

Returns a collection containing the objects with names matching the provided filter. The returned collection is live, so that when matching objects are added to this collection, they are also visible in the filtered collection.

This method is an intermediate operation. It does not change the realized/unrealized state of the elements in the collection.

Return

The collection of objects with names satisfying the filter. Returns an empty collection if there are no such objects in this collection.
