Retrieves an instance of the User class by the specified domain and symbolic name. This method does not verify the existence of the requested object on the server; it simply returns a local reference without making a round-trip to the server. The local reference is not affiliated with an object of this class type until you perform a function on the object (for example, fetch a property value) that causes a round-trip to the Content Engine server.
