             Summary: FunctionContext should provide a Cache
                 Key: GEODE-393
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-393
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: functions
            Reporter: Dan Smith


FunctionContext has methods to get the arguments to the function and the result 
sender, but there is no way to get the Cache or DistributedSystem.

This means pretty much any function will need to statically look up the cache 
using CacheFactory.getAnyInstance(). While that works, it makes it impossible 
to write unit tests for functions by passing in a mock cache.

Note that onRegion functions are provided a RegionFunctionContext, which does 
provide these functions with a means to look up the cache, but not all 
functions are applied to a region.
