Description

I have base entity and 2 inheritors e.g. Person and Document.
If I try to find Person entity and provide id of the Document entity like

Person p = em.find(Person.class, document.getId());

I get

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.openjpa.find.entities.Document cannot be cast to org.apache.openjpa.find.entities.Person
at org.apache.openjpa.find.FindTest.testFind(FindTest.java:54)

but it should return either null or EntityNotFoundException.

If I provide just some wrong non existing id I get null.

The maven project with test is attached to the issue.
