i've just started working with hibernate and i want to create a generic
method that will take a class and id and pass back an object of the
type class i've passed to it. here' what i've got so far.  i now it's
not correct but i'm not sure how to fix it.  could somebody help me
with this along with pointing me to some docs on how to.

   public <T> Class<T> getById(Class<T> mappedClss, long id) {
       Session session = getSession();
       Class<T> object = (Class<T>) session.get(mappedClss, id);
       return object;
   }

thanks,
deno
