#Remarks

Use this method when you need to specify the ID of the Lookup List View which must be created for the current object type. For example, when using the XafApplication.CreateListView method to create a Lookup List View, you need to pass the ID of the Lookup List View to be created. The FindLookupListViewId method returns the value of the DefaultLookupListViewId property of the Application Model‘s BOModel | <Class> node. This node defines the type passed as the viewId parameter.
