              throws PromotionApplicationException

Resolves a promotion code to a promotion. A name value pair style parameters can be passed in. The implementor is responsible for checking whether the needed parameters are passed in as required. This is for customization purposes. This method is often used when promotion codes are evaluated. The reason the other resolve method is not used is because it needs a PromotionContext object, which may not be available at the time codes are validated.

Parameters:

code - the code

NVP - custom properties passed to the resolver for promotion code resolution.

Returns:

the key to the promotion which is identified by this promotion code

Throws:

PromotionApplicationException
