key - The key to use associate the data with, must not be null.

data - The data to store in the cache, may be null.

                     java.lang.Object key)

Deprecated.

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.
