Re: [Hibernate-devel] loading non-existent objects

[Gavin_King/Cirrus%<CI...@ci...>]

Yeah, that is the assumption. Nevertheless, your suggestion is a good
one and we should add ObjectNotFoundException ASAP. I would also like
to add StaleDataException when version checking fails. Can anyone think
of any other cases like this?

If Brad doesn't make this change in CVS, I will make it sometime in the
next couple of days....
