- Method Detail
  - importFunctionSet
```
public final void importFunctionSet(BuiltInFunctionSet importee)
```
    Import another function set (which must be in the same namespace)
    
    Parameters:
    
    importee - the function set to be imported. (No cycles allowed!)
  - getFunctionDetails
```
public BuiltInFunctionSet.Entry getFunctionDetails(String name,
                                                   int arity)
```
    Locate the entry for a function with a given name and arity, if it exists
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the local part of the function name
    
    arity - the arity of the function. -1 considers all possibly arities and returns an arbitrary function if one exists with the right name.
    
    Returns:
    
    the entry for the required function, or null if not found
  - bind
```
public Expression bind(SymbolicName.F symbolicName,
                       Expression[] staticArgs,
                       StaticContext env,
                       List<String> reasons)
```
    Bind a function, given the URI and local parts of the function name, and the list of expressions supplied as arguments. This method is called at compile time.
    
    Specified by:
    
    bind in interface FunctionLibrary
    
    Parameters:
    
    symbolicName - the symbolic name of the function being called
    
    staticArgs - May be null; if present, the length of the array must match the value of arity. Contains the expressions supplied statically in arguments to the function call. The intention is that the static type of the arguments (obtainable via getItemType() and getCardinality()) may be used as part of the binding algorithm. In some cases it may be possible for the function to be pre-evaluated at compile time, for example if these expressions are all constant values.
    The conventions of the XPath language demand that the results of a function depend only on the values of the expressions supplied as arguments, and not on the form of those expressions. For example, the result of f(4) is expected to be the same as f(2+2). The actual expression is supplied here to enable the binding mechanism to select the most efficient possible implementation (including compile-time pre-evaluation where appropriate).
    
    env - The static context of the function call
    
    reasons - If no matching function is found by the function library, it may add a diagnostic explanation to this list explaining why none of the available functions could be used.
    
    Returns:
    
    An expression equivalent to a call on the specified function, if one is found; null if no function was found matching the required name and arity.
  - makeFunction
```
public SystemFunction makeFunction(String name,
                                   int arity)
                            throws XPathException
```
    Throws:
    
    XPathException
  - isAvailable
```
public boolean isAvailable(SymbolicName.F symbolicName)
```
    Test whether a function with a given name and arity is available
    This supports the function-available() function in XSLT.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isAvailable in interface FunctionLibrary
    
    Parameters:
    
    symbolicName - the qualified name of the function being called, together with its arity. For legacy reasons, the arity may be set to -1 to mean any arity will do
    
    Returns:
    
    true if a function of this name and arity is available for calling
  - copy
```
public FunctionLibrary copy()
```
    This method creates a copy of a FunctionLibrary: if the original FunctionLibrary allows new functions to be added, then additions to this copy will not affect the original, or vice versa.
    
    Specified by:
    
    copy in interface FunctionLibrary
    
    Returns:
    
    a copy of this function library. This must be an instance of the original class.
  - register
```
protected BuiltInFunctionSet.Entry register(String name,
                                            int arity,
                                            Class<? extends SystemFunction> implementationClass,
                                            ItemType itemType,
                                            int cardinality,
                                            int applicability,
                                            int properties)
```
    Register a system function in the table of function details.
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the function name
    
    implementationClass - the class used to implement the function
    
    itemType - the item type of the result of the function
    
    cardinality - the cardinality of the result of the function
    
    applicability - the host languages (and versions thereof) in which this function is available
    
    properties - bitwise properties of the function
    
    Returns:
    
    the entry describing the function. The entry is incomplete, it does not yet contain information about the function arguments.
  - registerReducedArityVariants
```
protected void registerReducedArityVariants(String key,
                                            int min,
                                            int max)
```
    Register reduced-arity versions of a function, with arities in a specified range, using common argument and return types
  - getNamespace
```
public String getNamespace()
```
    Return the namespace URI for the functions local to this function set.
    
    Returns:
    
    the namespace URI of the functions local to this function set. Note that functions imported from another function set may have a different namespace URI.
  - getConventionalPrefix
```
public String getConventionalPrefix()
```
    Return a conventional prefix for use with this namespace, typically the prefix used in the documentation of these functions.
