Craig Russell commented on JDO-630:
-----------------------------------

To test this feature:
Add an instance of FullTimeEmployee with identity 1.

Object oid = new LongIdentity(PartTimeEmployee.class, 1);

try {
PartTimeEmployee pto = pm.getObjectById(oid, false);
pto.getName();
} catch (JDOException ex) {
// must fail
}

try {
Object oid = new IntIdentity(PartTimeEmployee.class, 1);
} catch (JDOException ex) {
// must fail
}

Other cases with Person must also fail.

> When calling PersistenceManager.getObjectById() with a SingleFieldIdentity, 
> there seems to be no way of avoiding the following 
> (if the implementation decides to do so):
> "It is an implementation decision whether to access the data store, if 
> required to determine the exact class. This will be the case of  inheritance, 
> where multiple <code>PersistenceCapable</code> classes share the same 
> ObjectId class."
> Now when I know for sure that the targetClassName of the given 
> SingleFieldIdentity already denotes the correct class for the given id,  how 
> can I avoid that additional roundtrip to the database for finding the exact 
> class?
> It would be useful to have a way of specifying a SingleFieldIdentity to be 
> for the exact class specified. This could be done by addition of methods
> void setExact(boolean flag);
> boolean getExact();
> to SingleFieldIdentity
