Now, I wanna search person by primary key.

First, I create instance of PersonKey, and set the name become: joe, and id become:007

can I get the person by ID, by pass the key variable ???

person.findByKey(someKey); , but the logic do not criteria

Answer 1

Yes you can. Assuming the PersonKey is Serializable, simply pass it to the get method:

PersonKey pk = new PersonKey(007l, "joe");
Person person = (Person) session.get(Person.class, pk);
