How to ContinueAsNew with signal?

I am assuming that when we call continueAsNew, it restarts execution with a different runId and same workflow id and that it would reset any field values, since it’s a new run. I want to retain the values across new runs when I do continueAsNew, How can I achieve this ? Can I continueAsNew with signal
similar to startWithSignal method which takes in a batch request ?

Example:

public class MyWorkflowImpl implements MyWorkflow {

    private final MyActivity activity =
            Workflow.newActivityStub(MyActivity.class, DEFAULT_ONE_ATTEMPT_ACTIVITY_OPTIONS);

    private boolean isExecutionPaused = false;

    @Override // @WorkflowMethod
    public void start() {
        activity.doSomething();
        Workflow.await(Duration.ofHours(1), () -> !isExecutionPaused);
        if (isExecutionPaused) {
            activity.doSomethingElse();
            Workflow.continueAsNew(); // I want to continueAsNew with isExecutionPaused = true
        }
        Workflow.continueAsNew();
    }

    @Override // @SignalMethod
    public void signalMethod(boolean isExecutionPaused) {
        this.isExecutionPaused = isExecutionPaused;
    }

}

For example, in the above code, if a signal sets isExecutionPaused = true; And during continueAsNew(), I want to retain the value of isExecutionPaused which I think will reset in above case to false, on continueAsNew().

I would appreciate if someone can help me here. Thanks in advance.

The values you want to pass should be part of the workflow arguments.
