Hi Daryl,
something like:
/**
* Pour the persistent state of the given other instance into this
(detached) instance.
* Some sort of reverse Object.clone().
* The implementation has to decide whether to deep copy or not.
**/
abstract void enolc(JpaEntity other);
public void load() throws Exception { // Saveable
EntityManager em = ...
this.enolc(em.find(getClass(), getId());
}
PS: "copy constructor" is a constructor that takes an instance of the same
type as input argument. Was popular in C++ days.
