WorkflowIdReusePolicy question and potentially bug or documentation error

First of all, this pages says The default is AllowDuplicateFailedOnly But when I print out the default it is “null” System.out.println("Default option is: " + options.getWorkflowIdReusePolicy()); And the result is I can start workflow execution with the same workflow id. So either it’s a bug or a documentation error My other question is this: this option is set when the client start the execution and what if the client forgot to properly set it? Should it be defined on the workflow itself…

Right now, this policy is set by the client before start the workflow execution. This means different client can use different policy. It might be useful to have a mechanism to give the option to lock this policy at the workflow definition/implementation level, so no client can mess it up. Maybe have it on WorkflowServiceStubsOptions
