Hey Sukrit,
I noticed that this issue has been open for a long time with no responses. Is this still a feature you'd like to see in SWF?

@breedloj For using Flow with other languages (node, python), this was an important piece that was missing.
We had submitted a PR couple of years back :

Hello @breedloj, I work with @sukrit007 . Any word on this? We have been running a fork for some time and it would be nice to get back on the main SDK. We really just need a way to get all of the type information out of band, so that other languages do not need to understand Java's type system.
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help move this forward.
I'm very interested in this too. My use case is different than that originally stated here.
Basically, I have an injected defaultLambdaRole at application startup. And currently the only way to provide the defaultLambdaRole is to hard code it in the annotations. OR roll your own worker registration code.
If, however, a WorkflowDefinitionFactoryFactory instance could be provided on creation of the WorkflowWorker, that would likely be sufficient for my needs.
Of course, as I review aws-swf-flow-library there is no such thing as WorkflowWorker anymore. And when I review the WorkflowWorker from aws-java-sdk-swf-libraries 1.11.22 I see that, for the most part, it is just an encapsulation of the GenericWorkflowWorker. And review of GenericWorkflowWorker shows that a WorkflowDefinitionFactoryFactory can be 'set' which is not ideal (prefer immutable), but better than nothing.
So this raises the following questions in my mind:

We should have a way to inject POJOWorkflowDefinitionFactoryFactory in WorkflowWorker so that, we can provide our own extended implementation for the same.
