    Protected Methods
     NameDescription
    Protected Method Enforces the template method pattern to have child objects determine which specific properties should and should not be included in the object signature comparison. Note that the the BaseObject already takes care of performance caching, so this method shouldn't worry about caching...just return the goods man! (Inherited from CommerceBuilder.DomainModel.EntityWithTypedId<int>)
    Protected Method

    When NHibernate proxies objects, it masks the type of the actual entity object. This wrapper burrows into the proxied object to get its actual type.

    Although this assumes NHibernate is being used, it doesn't require any NHibernate related dependencies and has no bad side effects if NHibernate isn't being used.
