- *  CurrentRead      0      Indicates if the current value is readable
- *                          (0 means not readable, 1 means readable).
- *  CurrentWrite     1      Indicates if the current value is writable
- *                          (0 means not writable, 1 means writable).
- *  HistoryRead      2      Indicates if the history of the value is readable
- *                          (0 means not readable, 1 means readable).
- *  HistoryWrite     3      Indicates if the history of the value is writable (0 means not writable, 1 means writable).
- *  SemanticChange   4      Indicates if the Variable used as Property generates SemanticChangeEvents (see 9.31).
- *  Reserved         5:7    Reserved for future use. Shall always be zero.
- *
- *  The first two bits also indicate if a current value of this Variable is available and the second two bits
- *  indicates if the history of the Variable is available via the OPC UA server.

-     * @return void
-     *
-     *
-     * ### Providing read access to the underlying value
-     *
-     * #### Variation 1
-     *
-     * In this variation, the user provides a function that returns a Variant with the current value.
-     *
-     * The sourceTimestamp will be set automatically.
-     *
-     * The get function is called synchronously.
-     *
-     * @example
-     *
-     *
-     * ```javascript
-     *     ...
-     *     var options =  {
-     *       get : () => {
-     *          return new Variant({...});
-     *       },
-     *       set : function(variant) {
-     *          // store the variant somewhere
-     *          return StatusCodes.Good;
-     *       }
-     *    };
-     *    ...
-     *    engine.bindVariable(nodeId,options):
-     *    ...
-     * ```
-     *
-     *
-     * #### Variation 2:
-     *
-     * This variation can be used when the user wants to specify a specific '''sourceTimestamp''' associated
-     * with the current value of the UAVariable.
-     *
-     * The provided ```timestamped_get``` function should return an object with three properties:
-     * * value: containing the variant value or a error StatusCode,
-     * * sourceTimestamp
-     * * sourcePicoseconds
-     *
-     * ```javascript
-     * ...
-     * var myDataValue = new DataValue({
-     *   value: {dataType: DataType.Double , value: 10.0},
-     *   sourceTimestamp : new Date(),
-     *   sourcePicoseconds: 0
-     * });
-     * ...
-     * var options =  {
-     *   timestamped_get : () => { return myDataValue;  }
-     * };
-     * ...
-     * engine.bindVariable(nodeId,options):
-     * ...
-     * // record a new value
-     * myDataValue.value.value = 5.0;
-     * myDataValue.sourceTimestamp = new Date();
-     * ...
-     * ```
-     *
-     *
-     * #### Variation 3:
-     *
-     * This variation can be used when the value associated with the variables requires a asynchronous function call to be
-     * extracted. In this case, the user should provide an async method ```refreshFunc```.
-     *
-     *
-     * The ```refreshFunc``` shall do whatever is necessary to fetch the most up to date version of the variable value, and
-     * call the ```callback``` function when the data is ready.
-     *
-     *
-     * The ```callback``` function follow the standard callback function signature:
-     * * the first argument shall be **null** or **Error**, depending of the outcome of the fetch operation,
-     * * the second argument shall be a DataValue with the new UAVariable Value,  a StatusCode, and time stamps.
-     *
-     *
-     * Optionally, it is possible to pass a sourceTimestamp and a sourcePicoseconds value as a third and fourth arguments
-     * of the callback. When sourceTimestamp and sourcePicoseconds are missing, the system will set their default value
-     * to the current time..
-     *
-     *
-     * ```javascript
-     * ...
-     * var options =  {
-     *    refreshFunc : function(callback) {
-     *      ... do_some_async_stuff_to_get_the_new_variable_value
-     *      var dataValue = new DataValue({
-     *          value: new Variant({...}),
-     *          statusCode: StatusCodes.Good,
-     *          sourceTimestamp: new Date()
-     *      });
-     *      callback(null,dataValue);
-     *    }
-     * };
-     * ...
-     * variable.bindVariable(nodeId,options):
-     * ...
-     * ```
-     *
-     * ### Providing write access to the underlying value
-     *
-     * #### Variation1 - provide a simple synchronous set function
-     *
-     *
