 * With this helper Configuration Entries (ConfigEntity) can be found by

 *
 * For performance issues the ConfigEntities are available as common
 * Entity Beans that are readable and writable, and as ReadOnly EntityBeans
 * (ConfigReaderEntity) which are only readable and will be automatically
 * by the application server.
 * Therefore the different finders are provided for both types.
 *
 * The ReadOnly Pattern is generated by ant target 'add-readonly-entities'
 * and its generator task 'make-readonly-beans'.
