String parameters enclosed in quotes in activity functions

We are experiencing the issue described in azure-functions-durable-extension/issues/2674 in Java activity functions.

Our existing durable function orchestration started failing out of the blue. No changes were made to the code base or dependencies of our service using durable Java functions. The service works (for now) on a linux app service plan in Azure but fails on Windows with the latest Core Tools. String parameters are enclosed in quotes in any activity functions. Using the example capitalize cities workflow from the official docs demonstrates the issue. Output below:

{
    "name": "Cities",
    "instanceId": "47f91af6-e5f0-4ea1-a363-f6d00ca812c2",
    "runtimeStatus": "Completed",
    "input": null,
    "customStatus": "",
    "output": "\"TOKYO\", \"LONDON\", \"SEATTLE\", \"AUSTIN\"",
    "createdTime": "2024-03-07T17:16:49Z",
    "lastUpdatedTime": "2024-03-07T17:16:51Z"
}

Bắt đầu với endtoendtests/src/main/java/com/functions/AzureFunctions.java và tái hiện workflow „capitalize cities“ trên Windows bằng Core Tools mới nhất. So sánh đầu ra của activity với issue azure-functions-durable-extension được liên kết; hoàn tất khi các tham số chuỗi không còn được trả về với dấu ngoặc kép bao quanh.
