// SideEffect executes the provided function once, records its result into the workflow history. The recorded result on

// The only way to fail SideEffect is to panic which causes decision task failure. The decision task after timeout is
// rescheduled and re-executed giving SideEffect another chance to succeed.
//
// Caution: do not use SideEffect to modify closures. Always retrieve result from SideEffect's encoded return value.
// For example this code is BROKEN:
//  // Bad example:
//  var random int
//  workflow.SideEffect(func(ctx workflow.Context) interface{} {
//         random = rand.Intn(100)
//         return nil
//  })

//  if random < 50 {
//         ....
//  } else {
//         ....
//  }
// On replay the provided function is not executed, the random will always be 0, and the workflow could takes a
// different path breaking the determinism.
//
// Here is the correct way to use SideEffect:
//  // Good example:
//  encodedRandom := SideEffect(func(ctx workflow.Context) interface{} {
//        return rand.Intn(100)
//  })
//  var random int
//  encodedRandom.Get(&random)

//         ....

// provided equals function. If they are equal, it returns the value without recording a new one in history;
//   otherwise, it records the new value with the same id on history.
//
// Caution: do not use MutableSideEffect to modify closures. Always retrieve result from MutableSideEffect's encoded
// return value.
//
// The difference between MutableSideEffect() and SideEffect() is that every new SideEffect() call in non-replay will
// result in a new marker being recorded on history. However, MutableSideEffect() only records a new marker if the value
// changed. During replay, MutableSideEffect() will not execute the function again, but it will return the exact same

// DefaultVersion is a version returned by GetVersion for code that wasn't versioned before
const DefaultVersion Version = internal.DefaultVersion

// GetVersion is used to safely perform backwards incompatible changes to workflow definitions.
// It is not allowed to update workflow code while there are workflows running as it is going to break
// determinism. The solution is to have both old code that is used to replay existing workflows
// as well as the new one that is used when it is executed for the first time.
// GetVersion returns maxSupported version when is executed for the first time. This version is recorded into the
// workflow history as a marker event. Even if maxSupported version is changed the version that was recorded is
// returned on replay. DefaultVersion constant contains version of code that wasn't versioned before.
// For example initially workflow has the following code:
//  err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, foo).Get(ctx, nil)
// it should be updated to
//  err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, bar).Get(ctx, nil)
// The backwards compatible way to execute the update is
//  v :=  GetVersion(ctx, "fooChange", DefaultVersion, 1)
//  if v  == DefaultVersion {
//      err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, foo).Get(ctx, nil)
//  } else {
//      err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, bar).Get(ctx, nil)
//  }
//
// Then bar has to be changed to baz:
//  v :=  GetVersion(ctx, "fooChange", DefaultVersion, 2)
//  if v  == DefaultVersion {
//      err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, foo).Get(ctx, nil)
//  } else if v == 1 {
//      err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, bar).Get(ctx, nil)
//  } else {
//      err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, baz).Get(ctx, nil)
//  }
//
// Later when there are no workflow executions running DefaultVersion the correspondent branch can be removed:
//  v :=  GetVersion(ctx, "fooChange", 1, 2)
//  if v == 1 {
//      err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, bar).Get(ctx, nil)
//  } else {
//      err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, baz).Get(ctx, nil)
//  }
//
// It is recommended to keep the GetVersion() call even if single branch is left:
//  GetVersion(ctx, "fooChange", 2, 2)
//  err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, baz).Get(ctx, nil)
//
// The reason to keep it is: 1) it ensures that if there is older version execution still running, it will fail here
// and not proceed; 2) if you ever need to make more changes for “fooChange”, for example change activity from baz to qux,
// you just need to update the maxVersion from 2 to 3.
//
// Note that, you only need to preserve the first call to GetVersion() for each changeID. All subsequent call to GetVersion()
// with same changeID are safe to remove. However, if you really want to get rid of the first GetVersion() call as well,
// you can do so, but you need to make sure: 1) all older version executions are completed; 2) you can no longer use “fooChange”
// as changeID. If you ever need to make changes to that same part like change from baz to qux, you would need to use a
// different changeID like “fooChange-fix2”, and start minVersion from DefaultVersion again. The code would looks like:
//
//  v := workflow.GetVersion(ctx, "fooChange-fix2", workflow.DefaultVersion, 1)
//  if v == workflow.DefaultVersion {
//    err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, baz, data).Get(ctx, nil)
//  } else {
//    err = workflow.ExecuteActivity(ctx, qux, data).Get(ctx, nil)
//  }

// SetQueryHandler sets the query handler to handle workflow query. The queryType specify which query type this handler
// should handle. The handler must be a function that returns 2 values. The first return value must be a serializable
// result. The second return value must be an error. The handler function could receive any number of input parameters.
// All the input parameter must be serializable. You should call workflow.SetQueryHandler() at the beginning of the workflow
// code. When client calls Client.QueryWorkflow() to cadence server, a task will be generated on server that will be dispatched
// to a workflow worker, which will replay the history events and then execute a query handler based on the query type.
// The query handler will be invoked out of the context of the workflow, meaning that the handler code must not use workflow
// context to do things like workflow.NewChannel(), workflow.Go() or to call any workflow blocking functions like
// Channel.Get() or Future.Get(). Trying to do so in query handler code will fail the query and client will receive
// QueryFailedError.
