All Known Implementing Classes:

    public interface EntityPersister

extends OptimisticCacheSource

Implementors define mapping and persistence logic for a particular strategy of entity mapping. An instance of entity persisters corresponds to a given mapped entity.

Implementors must be threadsafe (preferrably immutable) and must provide a constructor matching the signature of: `PersistentClass`, `SessionFactoryImplementor`

                                          Object[] state,
                                          SessionImplementor session)

  Perform a select to retrieve the values of any generated properties back from the database, injecting these generated values into the given entity as well as writing this state to the `PersistenceContext`.

  Note, that because we update the PersistenceContext here, callers need to take care that they have already written the initial snapshot to the PersistenceContext before calling this method.

  Parameters:
    `id` - The entity's id value.
    `entity` - The entity for which to get the state.
    `state` -
    `session` - The session
