I'm wondering if I've gotten comparsion of objects right.

Consider a, b both references to CayenneDataObjects.

I want to know if a & b refer to the same row in a database.


1. if (a==b)

safe as long as a & b are in the same DataContext.
a & b can be garbage collected during the lifetime
of DataContext, but the above is still guaranteed to
work.

2. if (a.getObjectId().equals(b.getObject()))

safe regardless of which DataContext the objects
are in.

3. if (a.getObjectId()==b.getObject())

same as 2, except that it is faster.


If any of the above assumptions are false, then I need to
go into the application and fix it.
