Version 1.1.0

API

Bugfixes

• We now use our own internal @GuardedBy annotation for errorprone so there won't be an accidental
  transitive dependency on a 3rd-party jar.
• The TraceStateBuilder now will not crash when an empty value is provided.

Enhancements

• The Context class now provides methods to wrap java.util.concurrent.Executor and java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService
  instances to do context propagation using the current context. See io.opentelemetry.context.Context.taskWrapping(...) for
  more details.

OpenTracing Shim (alpha)

• The shim now supports methods that take a timestamp as a parameter.
• You can now specify both the TEXT_MAP and the HTTP_HEADER type propagators for the shim.
  See io.opentelemetry.opentracingshim.OpenTracingPropagators for details.

Extensions

• The AWS X-Ray propagator is now able to extract 64-bit trace ids.

SDK

Bugfixes

• The CompletableResultCode.join(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) method will no longer fail the result
  when the timeout happens. Nor will whenComplete actions be executed in that case.
• The SimpleSpanProcessor now keeps track of pending export calls and will wait for them to complete
  via a CompletableResultCode when forceFlush() is called. Similiarly, this is also done on shutdown().
• The Jaeger Thrift exporter now correctly populates the parent span id into the exporter span.

Enhancements

• The SpanBuilder provided by the SDK will now ignore Link entries that are reference an invalid SpanContext.
  This is an update from the OpenTelemetry Specification v1.1.0 release.
• The OTLP Exporters will now log more helpful messages when the collector is unavailable or misconfigured.
• The internals of the BatchSpanProcessor have had some optimization done on them, to reduce CPU
  usage under load.
• The Resource class now has builder() and toBuilder() methods and a corresponding ResourceBuilder class
  has been introduced for more fluent creation and modification of Resource instances.
• The standard exporters will now throttle error logging when export errors are too frequent. If more than 5
  error messages are logged in a single minute by an exporter, logging will be throttled down to only a single
  log message per minute.

SDK Extensions

Bugfixes

• Removed a stacktrace on startup when using the autoconfigure module without a metrics SDK on the classpath.

Enhancements

• The autoconfigure module now supports OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_ENDPOINT and OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT
  settings, in addition to the combined OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT environment variable. Corresponding
  system properties are also supported (-Dotel.exporter.otlp.metrics.endpoint and -Dotel.exporter.otlp.traces.endpoint).
• An SdkMeterProviderConfigurer SPI is now available in the autoconfigure module.

Semantic Conventions (alpha)

• The SemanticAttributes and ResourceAttributes have both been updated to match the OpenTelemetry Specification v1.1.0 release.
  This includes a breaking changes to the constants defined in the ResourceAttributes class:
  ResourceAttributes.CLOUD_ZONE has been replaced with ResourceAttributes.CLOUD_AVAILABILITY_ZONE.

Metrics (alpha)

Breaking Changes

• The ViewRegistry now lets you register View objects, rather than AggregatorFactory instances.
• GlobalMetricsProvider has been renamed to GlobalMeterProvider.
• View registration has been moved to the SdkMeterProviderBuilder and the methods on the SdkMeterProvider
  to add views have been deprecated. They will be removed in the next release.

Enhancements

• A new option for aggregation as Histograms is now available.
