Ontology > Ontology Function Helper Mapping
Most entries are dedicated to the System-level Ontology Function Helper classes. Specific Function Helper classes can be added and attached to a particular Ontology as needed.
A function helper class is a utility class that contains static methods designed to assist with common functionality across an Ontology when doing custom development. Such classes help avoid code duplication and promote reusability by providing shared functions.
