Important changes:

  • [EXPORTER] GRPC endpoint scheme should take precedence over OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_INSECURE #2060
    • The logic to decide whether or not an OTLP GRPC exporter uses SSL has changed to comply with the specification:
      • Before this change, the following settings were evaluated, in order:
        • OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_INSECURE (starting with 1.8.3)
        • OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_INSECURE (starting with 1.8.3)
        • OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_SSL_ENABLE
        • OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_SSL_ENABLE
      • With this change, the following settings are evaluated, in order:
        • The GRPC endpoint scheme, if provided:
          • "https" imply with SSL,
          • "http" imply without ssl.
        • OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_INSECURE
        • OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_INSECURE
        • OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_SSL_ENABLE
        • OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_SSL_ENABLE
      • As a result, a behavior change for GRPC SSL is possible, because the endpoint scheme now takes precedence. Please verify configuration settings for the GRPC endpoint.
  • [SDK] Add ForceFlush for all LogRecordExporter and SpanExporter #2000
    • LogRecordExporter and SpanExporter add a new virtual function ForceFlush, and if users implement any customized LogRecordExporter and SpanExporter, they should also implement this function. There should be no impact if users only use factory to create exporters.
