title: Scala equivalent of Java java.lang.Class<T> Object
body: <p>The question is best explained by an example:</p>
  
  <p>In Java for a JPA EntityManager, I can do the following(Account is my Entity class):</p>
  
  <pre><code>Account result = manager.find(Account.class, primaryKey);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In Scala, my naive attempt is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>val result = manager.find(Account.class, primaryKey)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But when I try to use <code>Account.class</code> in Scala, it seems to not like this.  How can I specify the java.lang.Class object for the Account class in Scala?</p>
