Why is @Id GenerationType.AUTO null after persist?

[Marcel Ruff]

Hi,

having

class Test
   @Id()
   @Column(name = "id", unique = true)
   @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
   public Long getId() {
       return this.id;
   }

em.persist(test);
test.getId() -----> IS NULL

Shouldn't it contain the generated id filled by persist?

Thanks
Marcel
