consequently it will always result in a database access even if an instance
of the specified Class exists in the cache. Executing a query with
selection criteria allows you to avoid a database access if the selected
instance is in the cache.
Because of this, you may whish to consider a readObject method that takes selection criteria, such as: {@link #readObject(Class, Call)}, {@link #readObject(Class, Expression)}, or {@link #readObject(Object)}.

Caution should be used when using this to make sure the application has no un commited
changes to the object.
