#' Generate efficacy boundaries and then calculate trial performance
#' 
#' This function first constructs the efficacy boundaries 
#' for an adaptive enrichment design by calling \code{\link{getEffBounds}}
#' and then simulates the trial design by calling \code{\link{simTrial}}.
#' It ensures that efficacy boundaries are computed with the same arguments used to evaluate the trial's performance.
#'
#' Optionally, the user can specifically input \code{all_efficacy_boundaries} (or input \code{H01_efficacy_boundaries}, \code{H02_efficacy_boundaries}, and \code{H0C_efficacy_boundaries}), and \code{\link{getEffBounds}} will not be called. However, in such cases, it is simpler to just use the \code{\link{simTrial}} function directly.

#' Compute efficacy stopping boundaries for an adaptive enrichment trial design
#' 
#' \code{getEffBounds} is based on asymptotic, multivariate normal distribution (also called canonical distribution) of test statistics (Rosenblum et al., 2016). \code{getEffBounds_Maurer_Bretz_2013} uses method from Maurer Bretz (2013).\cr\cr Let \eqn{H01}, \eqn{H02} and \eqn{H0C} respectively denote the null hypotheses that there is no treatment effect in subpopulation 1, subpopulation 2 and the combined population.
#'
#' \code{getEffBounds}  strongly controls the familywise Type I error rate, based on the 
#' generalized error-spending approach that allocates alpha (Type I error)
#' across stages and populations using the M_{COV} multiple testing procedure from Rosenblum et al. (2016).
#' The algorithm for efficacy boundary construction involves sequential computation
#' of the multivariate normal distribution using the package mvtnorm.
#' 
#' @param p1 proportion of population in subpopulation 1.
#' @param r1 probability of being randomized to treatment in subpopulation 1
#' @param r2 probability of being randomized to treatment in subpopulation 2
#' @param var_s1_trt variance of the outcome under treatment in subpopluation 1.
#' @param var_s1_con variance of the outcome under control in subpopluation 1.
#' @param var_s2_trt variance of the outcome under treatment in subpopluation 2.
#' @param var_s2_con variance of the outcome under control in subpopluation 2.
#' @param time_limit time limit for calculations
#' @param num_stages number of stages for the trial
#' @param n_per_stage a vector with length equal to \code{num_stages}, telling the number of patient's outcomes to be observed in each stage. When there is no delay, this is equal to the number of patients enrolled per stage. When there is delay, this vector is not equal to the number of patients enrolled per stage.
#' @param n_total the total, maximum number of patients to recruit by the end of the study. If entered, n_per_stage will be scaled to have this sum.
#' @param FWER Familywise Type I error rate for the trial.
#' @param H01_eff_allocated a vector of length \code{num_stages} telling the proportion of Type I error to allocate to hypothesis \eqn{H01} at each stage of the trial.
#' @param H02_eff_allocated a vector of length \code{num_stages} telling the proportion of Type I error to allocate to hypothesis \eqn{H02} at each stage of the trial.

#' @param H01_eff_total_allocated rather than setting the error allocated to each stage, the user can instead set the total error allocated to each hypothesis. \code{H01_eff_total_allocated}, \code{H02_eff_total_allocated}, and \code{H0C_eff_total_allocated} respectively tell the total Type I error to be allocated to \eqn{H01}, \eqn{H02}, and \eqn{H0C}. If set by the user, this will override the \code{H01_eff_allocated} vector.
#' @param H02_eff_total_allocated see \code{H01_eff_total_allocated}.
#' @param H0C_eff_total_allocated see \code{H01_eff_total_allocated}.
#' @param delta_eff This determines the allocation of Type I error across stages if \code{H01_eff_total_allocated}, \code{H02_eff_total_allocated} and \code{H0C_eff_total_allocated} are set by the user. See the source code.
