Description
The following RemoteCache APIs (and their variants) are not correctly defined:
boolean replaceWithVersion(K key, V newValue, long version);
boolean removeWithVersion(K key, long version);
The protocol allows for the previous value to be returned if Flag.FORCE_RETURN_VALUE is used, and these APIs do not accomodate that.
We should think whether it makes sense to keep the protocol as is. Does returning previous value help at all with conditional operations like these?
