Research direction

Start with the linked Service Bus trigger documentation and the Java code example in the issue, then inspect this library's annotations and existing samples for metadata parameters. Reproduce the shown trigger usage and document or sample the supported approach, including what should happen with deliveryCount.

Description

area:java-functions

In the official Microsoft documentation here there is a list of message metadata that can be used (or injected) into the azure function. However, there are no samples or documentation on how to do that. For example, doing the following results in an exception at runtime
@FunctionName("Process") public void run(@ServiceBusTopicTrigger( name = "req", topicName = TemplatedConstants.topicName, subscriptionName = TemplatedConstants.subscriptionName, connection = "ServiceBusConnectionString") String message, final ExecutionContext context, Integer deliveryCount) {

because of the extra deliveryCount parameter
