JEE11_Data: Repository methods returning Page or CursoredPage must declare a PageRequest parameter.

[archana-1924]

Description:

A PageRequest parameter must be declared in the repository method signature when:

• The method returns a Page<E> (offset‑based pagination).
• The method returns a CursoredPage<E> (cursor‑based pagination).

Without a PageRequest parameter, the method signature is invalid because the pagination context cannot be determined.

Examples:

Invalid example

public interface ProductRepository extends DataRepository<Product, Long> { 
    Page<Product> findByCategory(String category);  
    //Invalid: returns Page<Product> but no PageRequest parameter 
} 

Valid example

public interface ProductRepository extends DataRepository<Product, Long> { 
    Page<Product> findByCategory(String category, PageRequest pageRequest);  
    //Returns Page<Product>, PageRequest declared 
}
