When a match function could not be created the factory should throw an exception, when the match function could not be found a null pointer should be returned.

Specified by:

getMatchFunction in interface IMatchFunctionFactory

Parameters:

name - The name of the user created match function.

parameters - The parameters which can be used to initialize a match function with specific settings.
