RecordId (Geotools modules 31-SNAPSHOT API)

All Superinterfaces:

Identifier
```
public interface RecordId
extends Identifier
```
RecordId refered to by CSW-2 specification.
Records are identified with a String, commonly referred to as an "id". We are using SimpleFeature to represent a Record at the moment (since our Record does not have a getID() method).

Since:

GeoAPI 2.1
