/**
* A CollationURIResolver accepts a collation name as input, and returns

* can be registered with the Configuration (or with a TransformerFactory)
* to resolve all collation URIs used in a stylesheet or query.
*/
public interface CollationURIResolver {
/**
* Resolve a collation URI (expressed as a string in the form of an absolute URI) and return
* the corresponding collation.
*
* @param collationURI the collation URI as written in the query or stylesheet, after resolving
* against the base URI where necessary
* @param config The configuration. Provided in case the collation URI resolver
* needs it.
* @return a StringCollator, representing the collation to be used. Note that although
* any StringCollator may be returned, functions such as contains() that need to break
* a string into its collation units will work only if the returned StringCollator
* is a {@link net.sf.saxon.lib.SubstringMatcher}.
* If the Collation URI is not recognized, return null.
* Note that unlike the JAXP URIResolver, returning null does not cause the default
* CollationURIResolver to be invoked; if this is required, the user-written CollationURIResolver
* should explicitly instantiate and invoke the {@link StandardCollationURIResolver} before
* returning null.
* @throws XPathException if the form of the URI is recognized, but if it is not valid,
* for example because it is not supported in this environment. In this case of the UCA collation,
* this exception is thrown when there are invalid parameters and fallback=no is specified.
* @since 8.5/8.9 (this interface was introduced provisionally in 8.5, and modified in 8.9 to return
* a StringCollator rather than a Comparator). Modified in 9.6 to accept the absolute URI of the
* collation, rather than the relative URI and base URI separately, and also to allow an
* exception to be thrown
