Hi all
I have defined a table with custom primary key:

object Genders : Table() {
    val value: Column<String> = varchar("value", 1)
    val description: Column<String> = varchar("description", 20)
    override val primaryKey = PrimaryKey(value)
}

As next, I would like to create an Entity class for it and I have tried:

class Gender(v: EntityID<String>) : Entity<String>(v) {
    companion object : EntityClass<String, Gender>(???)

    var value by Genders.value
    var description by Genders.description
}

EntityClass expects an `IdTable`:

For example

object Genders : IdTable<String>() {
    override val id = varchar("value", 20).entityId()
    val description: Column<String> = varchar("description", 20)
    override val primaryKey: PrimaryKey? = PrimaryKey(id)
}
class Gender(id: EntityID<String>) : Entity<String>(id) {
    companion object : EntityClass<String, Gender>(Genders)
    var description by Genders.description
}

How do you know regarding the IdTable ? In doc, it does not mention about the IdTable .
