Reset this XPath to its original configuration.
XPath is reset to the same state as when it was created with {@link XPathFactory#newXPath()}. reset() is designed to allow the reuse of existing XPaths thus saving resources associated with the creation of new XPaths.
The reset XPath is not guaranteed to have the same {@link XPathFunctionResolver}, {@link XPathVariableResolver}or {@link NamespaceContext} Objects, e.g. {@link Object#equals(Object obj)}. It is guaranteed to have a functionally equal XPathFunctionResolver, XPathVariableResolver and NamespaceContext.
