Description
The following exception is thrown when attempting to create a REST resource for an entity that only has a getter for the @Id field:
***ERROR*** Exception encountered: (type "set VERBOSE false" to disable stack traces) java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not determine @Id field and setter method for @Entity [org.jboss.jdf.example.ticketmonster.model.EventCategory].

This should not be the case. REST resources should be generated for entities that have only a getter in this instance. There is no need to set the @Id of the entity.
Currently, the Id setter method is invoked during an update. but then the entity representation already carries the Id, and the HTTP constraints for PUT ensure that the body of the PUT request will contain the Id. This is because the HTTP body for PUT should contain the full resource representation - if the original one contained the Id, then the PUT request body should contain it.
Besides, the JPA specification does not recommend changing the Id and specifies the resulting behavior as undefined. Therefore, there should be no pre-requisite for the @Id field to have a setter. A straight forward merge of the de-serialized request into the persistence context would be sufficient.
