Unreleased

1.5.1-beta.1

Released 2023-Jul-20

• The new HTTP and network semantic conventions can be opted in to by setting the OTEL_SEMCONV_STABILITY_OPT_IN environment variable. This allows for a transition period for users to experiment with the new semantic conventions and adapt as necessary. The environment variable supports the following values:
  • http - emit the new, frozen (proposed for stable) HTTP and networking attributes, and stop emitting the old experimental HTTP and networking attributes that the instrumentation emitted previously.
  • http/dup - emit both the old and the frozen (proposed for stable) HTTP and networking attributes, allowing for a more seamless transition.
  • The default behavior (in the absence of one of these values) is to continue emitting the same HTTP and network semantic conventions that were emitted in 1.5.0-beta.1.
  • Note: this option will eventually be removed after the new HTTP and network semantic conventions are marked stable. At which time this instrumentation can receive a stable release, and the old HTTP and network semantic conventions will no longer be supported. Refer to the specification for more information regarding the new HTTP and network semantic conventions for both spans and metrics. (#4538, #4639)

1.5.0-beta.1

Released 2023-Jun-05

• Bumped the package version to 1.5.0-beta.1 to keep its major and minor version in sync with that of the core packages. This would make it more intuitive for users to figure out what version of core packages would work with a given version of this package. The pre-release identifier has also been changed from rc to beta as we believe this more accurately reflects the status of this package. We believe the rc identifier will be more appropriate as semantic conventions reach stability.

• Fixed an issue of missing http.client.duration metric data in case of network failures (when response is not available). (#4098)

• Improve perf by avoiding boxing of common status codes values. (#4361, #4363)

1.0.0-rc9.14

Released 2023-Feb-24

• Updated OTel SDK dependency to 1.4.0

1.4.0-rc9.13

Released 2023-Feb-10

1.0.0-rc9.12

Released 2023-Feb-01

1.0.0-rc9.11

Released 2023-Jan-09

1.0.0-rc9.10

Released 2022-Dec-12

• Added net.peer.name and net.peer.port as dimensions on http.client.duration metric. (#3907)

• Breaking change http.host will no longer be populated on activity. net.peer.name and net.peer.port attributes will be populated instead. (#3832)

1.0.0-rc9.9

Released 2022-Nov-07

• Added back netstandard2.0 target. (#3787)

• Breaking change: The Enrich callback option has been removed. For better usability, it has been replaced by three separate options: In case of HttpClient the new options are EnrichWithHttpRequestMessage, EnrichWithHttpResponseMessage and EnrichWithException and in case of HttpWebRequest the new options are EnrichWithHttpWebRequest, EnrichWithHttpWebResponse and EnrichWithException. Previously, the single Enrich callback required the consumer to detect which event triggered the callback to be invoked (e.g., request start, response end, or an exception) and then cast the object received to the appropriate type: HttpRequestMessage, HttpResponsemessage, or Exception in case of HttpClient and HttpWebRequest,HttpWebResponse and Exception in case of HttpWebRequest. The separate callbacks make it clear what event triggers them and there is no longer the need to cast the argument to the expected type. (#3792)

• Fixed an issue which prevented custom propagators from being called on .NET 7+ runtimes for non-sampled outgoing HttpClient spans. (#3828)

• Breaking change: The same API is now exposed for net462 and netstandard2.0 targets. The Filter property on options is now exposed as FilterHttpRequestMessage (called for .NET & .NET Core) and FilterHttpWebRequest (called for .NET Framework). (#3793)

1.0.0-rc9.8

Released 2022-Oct-17

• In case of .NET Core, additional spans created during retries will now be exported. ([#3729])

1.0.0-rc9.7

Released 2022-Sep-29

• Dropped netstandard2.0 target and added net6.0. .NET 5 reached EOL in May 2022 and .NET Core 3.1 reaches EOL in December 2022. End of support dates for .NET are published here. The instrumentation for HttpClient now requires .NET 6 or later. This does not affect applications targeting .NET Framework. (#3664)

• Added overloads which accept a name to the TracerProviderBuilder AddHttpClientInstrumentation extension to allow for more fine-grained options management (#3664, #3667)

1.0.0-rc9.6

Released 2022-Aug-18

• Updated to use Activity native support from System.Diagnostics.DiagnosticSource to set activity status. (#3118) (#3555)

1.0.0-rc9.5

Released 2022-Aug-02

• Added http.scheme tag to tracing instrumentation. (#3464)

• [Breaking] Removes SetHttpFlavor option. "http.flavor" is now always automatically populated. To remove this tag, set "http.flavor" to null using ActivityProcessor. (#3380)

• Fix Enrich not getting invoked when SocketException due to HostNotFound occurs. (#3407)
