/**
 *
 * Marks a class as a function registry and let Achilles manage it
 * 
 * {@literal @}FunctionRegistry
 * public interface MyFunctions {
 *
 *      Integer sumOf(int val1, int val2);
 *
 *      Long toLong(Date javaDate);
 * }
 * 
 * 

 * Note: it is possible to declare several function registries in your source code,
 * just annotate them with {@literal @}FunctionRegistry
 * 


 * Warning: it is not possible to declare 2 different functions with the same name and signature in the same keyspace
 * Achilles will raise a compilation error when encountering such case. Ex:
 * 

 * 

 * 
 * {@literal @}FunctionRegistry
 * public interface MyFunctionRegistry {
 *
 *
 *      String toString(long value);
 *
 *      String toString(int value); // OK because parameter type is different
 *
 *      String toString(long value); // KO because same signature as the first function
 * }
 * 
 *
 * Remark 1: functions return types cannot be primitive, use boxed types instead 
 * 

 * 

 * Remark 2: Achilles' codec system also applies for function parameters and return type 
 * 

 * 

 * 
 * {@literal @}FunctionRegistry
 * public interface FunctionsWithCodecSystemRegistry {
 *
 *      // CQL function signature = listtojson(consistencylevels list<text>), returns text
 *      String listToJson(List<@Enumerated ConsistencyLevel> consistencyLevels);
 *
 *      // CQL function signature = getinvalue(input text), returns text
 *      {@literal @}Codec(IntToString.class) String getIntValue(String input);
 *
 * }
 * 
 * Remark 3: functions name and parameters' name are lower-cased by Cassandra automatically 
 * 

 *
