# getId abstract method

String getId()

Returns a unique identifier for this application context.

The identifier serves multiple purposes:

- Logging and Monitoring: Distinguish between multiple contexts in logs
- JMX and Management: Identify context in management systems
- Debugging: Correlate context instances during development
- Serialization: Provide context identity in distributed scenarios

### Identifier Characteristics:

- Typically assigned during context creation
- Should be unique within the same DVM/process
- Usually includes context type and sequence information
- Can be used in parent-child context relationships

### Example:

    final contextId = applicationContext.getId();
    print("Operating context: $contextId");
    logger.info("Context $contextId initialized successfully");

    // Typical ID formats:
    // "AnnotationConfigApplicationContext-1"
    // "GenericApplicationContext-main"
    // "WebApplicationContext-dispatcher"

## Implementation
