0.7.0-beta.4

Bug fixes

• Use 1.7.1 of ASP.NET Core instrumentation.

  • Fixed issue
    #4466
    where the activity instance returned by Activity.Current was different than
    instance obtained from IHttpActivityFeature.Activity.
    (#5136)

  • Fixed an issue where the http.route attribute was not set on either the
    Activity or http.server.request.duration metric generated from a
    request when an exception handling middleware is invoked. One caveat is that
    this fix does not address the problem for the http.server.request.duration
    metric when running ASP.NET Core 8. ASP.NET Core 8 contains an equivalent fix
    which should ship in version 8.0.2
    (see: dotnet/aspnetcore#52652).
    (#5135)

  • Fixes scenario when the net6.0 target of this library is loaded into a
    .NET 7+ process and the instrumentation does not behave as expected. This
    is an unusual scenario that does not affect users consuming this package
    normally. This fix is primarily to support the
    opentelemetry-dotnet-instrumentation
    project.
    (#5252)

• Use 1.7.1 of HTTP instrumentation.

  • .NET Framework - fix description for http.client.request.duration metric.
    (#5234)

    (#1486)

Deprecation

• #87
  Deprecate use of GRAFANA_CLOUD_* environment variables in code and documentation

  The use of CloudOtlpExporter and GRAFANA_CLOUD_* environment variables is
  deprecated. Instead use OtlpExporter for code-level configuration, and
  OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT, and
  OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS for configuration via environment variables.
