Typed proxy support

Requirements

In order to create a type-safe experience for working with orchestrations and activities, the Java SDK for the Durable Task Framework should support type-safe invocation of orchestration and activities.

For example, when calling an activity, instead of the following:

Object activityInput = "World";
String result = context.callActivity("SayHello", activityInput, String.class).get();

...we should be able to instead write:

MyActivities activities = // get a pointer to an activity proxy
String result = activities.sayHello("World");

We'd want the same experience also for orchestrations (created by a client) and sub-orchestrations.

Ideally this support will also allow developers to easily unit test their code.

Design considerations

Java's Proxy support could be a good starting point for such a feature.

Commencez par les exigences et la documentation Java Proxy liée. Définissez le périmètre de l’invocation d’activités typées, d’orchestrations et de sous-orchestrations, y compris l’expérience proposée pour les tests unitaires. Le travail est considéré comme terminé lorsque le Java SDK fournit une approche de proxy documentée et type-safe couvrant les trois cas d’invocation.
