kennknowles opened a new issue, #19096:
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/19096

   Presently, the Go SDK permits 3 kinds of functions for use in ParDos.
    - Native functions
    - Structural DoFns with correctly named methods, that reflect the bundle 
lifecycle, or combine lifecycle (Setup StartBundle, FinishBundle, 
ProcessElement, Teardown etc.) These also permit limited Stateful ParDos, such 
as for caching expensive network responses for re-use when processing state.
    - Dynamic functions (DynFns) which permit the use of closured global state, 
and dynamic input types which are generated at pipeline runtime.
   
   There's presently no way to generate a stateful function that relies on 
closured global state and needs to be aware of the bundle lifecycle in the 
worker harness. In short, there's no way to create a Dynamic Structural DoFn.
   
   To implement this, in particular, [graph.DynFn 
](http://example.com)(https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/sdks/go/pkg/beam/core/graph/fn.go#L70)
   will need to be modified so that multiple methods can be returned, likely as 
methods on a struct, so that 
[graph.NewFn](https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/sdks/go/pkg/beam/core/graph/fn.go#L81)
 can populate the 
[graph.Fn.methods](https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/sdks/go/pkg/beam/core/graph/fn.go#L40)
 map correctly.
