/** is the base for AddIn services that supply functions which can be called
    by other components.

    <p>Any AddIn implementation must implement a service describing its
    specific set of functions.
    That service must contain the AddIn service, and the
    functions that are implemented, in one or more interfaces.
    The com::sun::star::lang::XServiceName interface
    must describe that service, and the XAddIn interface
    must describe the individual functions.</p>

    <p>Each AddIn function can take parameters of the following types:</p>

    <dl>
    <dt>`long`</dt>
    <dd>for integer values.</dd>

    <dt>`double`</dt>
    <dd>for floating point values.</dd>

    <dt>`string`</dt>
    <dd>for text strings.</dd>

    <dt>`long[][]`</dt>
    <dd>for (two-dimensional) arrays of integer values.</dd>

    <dt>`double[][]`</dt>
    <dd>for (two-dimensional) arrays of floating point values.</dd>

    <dt>`string[][]`</dt>
    <dd>for (two-dimensional) arrays of text strings.</dd>

    <dt>`any[][]`</dt>
    <dd>for (two-dimensional) arrays of mixed contents. Each `any`
    will contain a `double` or a `string`, depending on
    the data.</dd>

    <dt>`any`</dt>
    <dd>Depending on the data, a `double`, a `string`,
    or an `any[][]` will be passed. If no argument is specified in
    the function call, `VOID` will be passed. This allows for optional
    parameters.</dd>

    <dt>com::sun::star::table::XCellRange</dt>
    <dd>for a com::sun::star::table::XCellRange interface
    to the source data.</dd>

    <dt>com::sun::star::beans::XPropertySet</dt>
    <dd>for a com::sun::star::beans::XPropertySet
    interface to the SpreadsheetDocument making the function
    call. Only one parameter of this type is allowed in each function. It
    can be used to query document settings like
    SpreadsheetDocumentSettings::NullDate.</dd>

    <dt>`any[]`</dt>
    <dd>for varying parameters. Only the last parameter of a function may
    have this type. It will be filled with the remaining arguments of the
    function call that were not used for the previous parameters. Each
    element of the sequence will be filled as in the case of `any`
    above.</dd>
    </dl>

    <p>Each AddIn function must have one of the following return types:</p>

    <ul>
    <li>`long`</li>
    <li>`double`</li>
    <li>`string`</li>
    <li>`long[][]`</li>
    <li>`double[][]`</li>
    <li>`string[][]`</li>
    <li>`any[][]`</li>
    <li>XVolatileResult</li>
    <li>`any`</li>
    </ul>

    <p>The sequences must contain arrays as described above for the
    parameter types.
    An XVolatileResult return value must contain an object
    implementing the VolatileResult service, that contains
    a volatile result. Subsequent calls with the same parameters must
    return the same object.
    An `any` return value can contain any of the other types.</p>
