Re: How do I get a record for non integer pk?

[Andrus Adamchik]

Exactly. There is an 'objectForPk(.., int)' and another one  
'objectForPk(.., Object)':

What do you mean by "not working"?  Is it throwing a

Hello,

The code below is not working, as it expects the PK to be integer.
There is only one String field in the table defined as a pk.

Thanks

private void getRecord(String name) {
     DataContext context = DataContext.getThreadDataContext();
     System s = new System();
     s = (System) DataObjectUtils.objectForPK(context,  
System.class, name);
  form.setDataObject(s);
    }
