    object id,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default(CancellationToken)
)

    id As Object,
    cancellationToken As CancellationToken = Nothing
) As Task(Of ClassType)

Parameters

Remarks

Below is an example of using the GetObjectByKeyAsync<ClassType> method. Here, the session is the Session instance.

C#

Task<Person> personToDelete = session.GetObjectByKeyAsync<Person>(152);
session.Delete(personToDelete);

VB.NET

Dim personToDelete As Task(Of Person) = session.GetObjectByKeyAsync(Of Person)(152)
session.Delete(personToDelete)

The GetObjectByKeyAsync<ClassType> method searches the memory for the object that has the key property value. If such an object is found, it is not reloaded. To get the up-to-date object from the storage, use the overloaded Session.GetObjectByKeyAsync method with the alwaysGetFromDataStore parameter set to true.

Note

The GetObjectByKeyAsync<ClassType> method does not find objects until they are saved to a data store.
