    • put

      void put(RepositoryRequest request, Object key, Object data)
      Deprecated.
      Puts the specified data into the cache. Warning: The cache will directly save the provided reference. If the cached data is mutable, i.e. could be modified after being put into the cache, the caller is responsible for creating a copy of the original data and store the copy in the cache.
      Parameters:
      request - The repository request from which this cache was retrieved, must not be null.
      key - The key to use associate the data with, must not be null.
      data - The data to store in the cache, may be null.

    • get

      Object get(RepositoryRequest request, Object key)
      Deprecated.
      Gets the specified data from the cache. Warning: The cache will directly return the saved reference. If the cached data is to be modified after its retrieval, the caller is responsible to create a copy of the returned data and use this instead of the cache record.
      Parameters:
      request - The repository request from which this cache was retrieved, must not be null.
      key - The key to use for lookup of the data, must not be null.
      Returns:
      The requested data or null if none was present in the cache.
