 irrespective of the actual type of identity used.

public java.io.Serializable getInternalId()
IRepositoryEntity
 Typically a subclass will delegate to a public
 SomePrimitiveWrapper getId() method. The necessity for the
 getInternalId() abstract method is solely because the
 persistence layer needs a way of obtaining the identity irrespective of
 the actual identity implementation choice.
 
 Returning null from this method will indicate the object has
 never been saved. This will likely be relied on by some DAO
 implementations.
