Fetching a list of objects from a list of primary keys

Hi all.
I have a list of primary keys [3,4,5,etc…] and I’d like to fetch all the corresponding objects in one go.
Do I have to expose the primary key of my entity to do this or is there some method like Cayenne.objectForPK() that can accept a list of keys and return multiple objects?

Cheers,
- hugi

Here is a shorter version:

ExpressionFactory.inDbExp( User.ID_PK_COLUMN, 1, 2, 3)

Ah, of course, I can qualify on the DB path even if “id” is not a class attribute. Is this the correct way to go about this?

new ASTIn( new ASTDbPath( User.ID_PK_COLUMN ), new ASTList( someListOfIDs() ) )

Actually a simple IN qualifier should work.
