Research direction

Start with src/main/java/com/microsoft/azure/functions/annotation/KafkaOutput.java and compare its annotation definition with the Kafka Output binding documentation, especially the annotations section. Done means the documented avroschema option is represented in the Java annotation definition and remains consistent with the stated Kafka Output binding behavior.

Description

area:java-functions need investigation

Hi. According to the doc: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-bindings-kafka-output?tabs=in-process%2Cevent-hubs&pivots=programming-language-java#annotations

avroschema annotation should be supported for Kafka Output binding. But in the Java extension definition, the annotation definition is missing: https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-java-library/blob/dev/src/main/java/com/microsoft/azure/functions/annotation/KafkaOutput.java

When are we going to fix the issue?
