                                                    CreateInstanceException
        Description copied from interface: IProfile

        This method can be used to retrieve the singleton instance from the profile for a specific entity type. Depending on the value of the create parameter that is passed, the behavior of this method differs slightly.

        • When there is a singleton instance present in the profile for the specified type, this method will return that instance regardless the value of create.
        • When no instance is present for the specified type and create is set to true, the singleton instance will be created and returned.
        • When no instance is present for the specified type and create is set to false, an UnknownInstanceException will be thrown.
        When this method is invoked for an entity that has not been specified as a singleton type in the meta-model, this method will throw an exception, as a singleton instance can not exist for entities that allow multiple instances in the profile.
        Specified by:
        getSingletonInstance in interface IProfile
        Parameters:
        entityName - String the Name of the entity
        create - boolean indicating whether the singleton instance should be created in case it does not exist yet.
        Returns:
        IEntityInstance interface pointing to the singleton ('0'th) instance for the specified entity type.
        Throws:
        UnknownEntityException - When the specified entity name is invalid/unknown.
        UnknownInstanceException - When the singleton instance did not exist and/or could not be created.
        CreateInstanceException - This type of exception may be raised when a singleton instance is requested for a non-singleton entity type.
