getSingleFieldId

SingleFieldId getSingleFieldId(Class idType,
                               Class pcType,
                               Object key)

Method to return a single-field identity, for the persistable type specified, and for the idType of SingleFieldId.

Parameters:

idType - Type of the id

pcType - Type of the Persistable

key - The value for the identity (the Long, or Int, or ... etc).

Returns:

Single field identity

getApplicationId

Object getApplicationId(ClassLoaderResolver clr,
