public interface ERXGeneratesPrimaryKeyInterface

Enterprise objects that need to generate their own primary keys should implement this interface. This interface works in conjunction with the ERXDatabaseContextDelegate.

Note that ERXGenericRecord implements a default implementation of this interface.
