Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

Guideline to update the version

Increment the:

  • MAJOR version when you make incompatible API/ABI changes,
  • MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner, and
  • PATCH version when you make backwards compatible bug fixes.

[Unreleased]

  • [SECURITY] Remove OTLP HTTP support for TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1, require TLS 1.2 or better #2721

Breaking changes:

  • [SECURITY] Remove OTLP HTTP support for TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1, require TLS 1.2 or better #2721
    • The OTLP HTTP exporter no longer accept options like:
      • min_TLS = 1.0
      • min_TLS = 1.1
      • max_TLS = 1.0
      • max_TLS = 1.1
    • When connecting to an OTLP HTTP endpoint, using https, the connection will require TLS 1.2 by default, unless min_TLS is set to 1.3
    • Plain http connections (insecure) are not affected.

Important changes:

  • [API/SDK] Provider cleanup #2664
    • Before this fix:
      • The API class opentelemetry::trace::Tracer exposed methods such as ForceFlush(), ForceFlushWithMicroseconds(), Close() and CloseWithMicroseconds().
      • These methods are meant to be used when configuring the SDK, and should not be part of the API. Exposing them was an oversight.
      • Two of these methods are virtual, and therefore part of the ABI.
    • After this fix:
      • In OPENTELEMETRY_ABI_VERSION_NO 1, nothing is changed, because removing this code would break the ABI.
      • In OPENTELEMETRY_ABI_VERSION_NO 2, these methods are moved from the API to the SDK. This is a breaking change for ABI version 2, which is still experimental.
    • In all cases, instrumenting an application should not invoke flush or close on a tracer, do not use these methods.

Breaking changes:

  • [API/SDK] Provider cleanup #2664
    • Before this fix:
      • SDK factory methods such as:
        • opentelemetry::sdk::trace::TracerProviderFactory::Create()
        • opentelemetry::sdk::metrics::MeterProviderFactory::Create()
        • opentelemetry::sdk::logs::LoggerProviderFactory::Create()
        • opentelemetry::sdk::logs::EventLoggerProviderFactory::Create() returned an API object (opentelemetry::trace::TracerProvider) to the caller.
    • After this fix, these methods return an SDK level object (opentelemetry::sdk::trace::TracerProvider) to the caller.
    • Returning an SDK object is necessary for the application to cleanup and invoke SDK level methods, such as ForceFlush(), on a provider.
    • The application code that configures the SDK, by calling the various provider factories, may need adjustment.
    • All the examples have been updated, and in particular no longer perform static_cast do convert an API object to an SDK object. Please refer to examples for guidance on how to adjust.
    • If adjusting application code is impractical, an alternate and temporary solution is to build with option WITH_DEPRECATED_SDK_FACTORY=ON in CMake.
    • Option WITH_DEPRECATED_SDK_FACTORY=ON will allow to build code without application changes, posponing changes for later.
    • WITH_DEPRECATED_SDK_FACTORY=ON is temporary, only to provide an easier migration path. Expect this flag to be removed, as early as by the next release.

Notes on experimental features:

  • #2372 introduced MeterProvider::SetExemplar() which accepts en ExemplarFilterType enumeration with kAlwaysOff, kAlwaysOn and kTraceBased.

  • [SEMANTIC CONVENTIONS] Rework on semantic conventions 1.25.0 #2640
  • [DOC] Update INSTALL.md #2592

Important changes:

  • [EXPORTER] Gzip compression support for OTLP/HTTP and OTLP/gRPC exporter #2530
    • In the OtlpHttpExporterOptions and OtlpGrpcExporterOptions, a new field called compression has been introduced. This field can be set to "gzip” to enable gzip compression.
    • The CMake option WITH_OTLP_HTTP_COMPRESSION is introduced to enable gzip compression support for the OTLP HTTP Exporter and includes a dependency on zlib.
  • [SDK] Change OTLP HTTP content_type default to binary #2558
  • [CI] Use platform CMake #2627
    • The CI in github no longer install a different version of cmake.
    • It now always use the cmake provided by the platform.
    • As part of this change, the script ci/setup_cmake.sh was renamed to ci/setup_googletest.sh, for clarity, now that this script only installs googletest.
  • [SDK] DefaultLogHandler to print to std::cerr, add LogLevel::None #2622
    • Change DefaultLogHandler output
      • Before, the default internal logger, DefaultLogHandler, used to print to std::cout.
      • Now, DefaultLogHandler prints errors and warnings to std::cerr, as expected, while printing info and debug messages to std::cout.
      • Applications that expected to find the opentelemetry-cpp internal error log in std::cout may need adjustments, either by looking at std::cerr instead, or by using a custom log handler.
    • Additional LogLevel::None
      • LogLevel::None is a new supported log level, which does not print any message.
      • Custom log handlers may need to implement a new case, to avoid compiler warnings.
      • Numbering of log levels like OTEL_INTERNAL_LOG_LEVEL_ERROR has changed, which requires to rebuild, as the SDK ABI differs.

    • Header file opentelemetry/trace/canonical_code.h is unused, and is now removed.
    • This header should not be included directly in an application. If this is the case, please remove any remaining include directives.

  • [BUILD] Fix exported definitions when building DLL with STL #2387

    • The MeterSelector, MeterSelectorFactory, InstrumentSelector, and InstrumentSelectorFactory APIs now use const std::string& instead of nostd::string_view for name, version and schema to maintain a single export definition for DLL.

  • [EXPORTER] Rework OTLP/HTTP and OTLP/GRPC exporter options #2388

    • OtlpGrpcLogRecordExporter incorrectly used OtlpGrpcExporterOptions, which are options for traces and not logs.
    • This created a bug: the OtlpGrpcLogRecordExporter honors _TRACES_ environment variables, instead of _LOGS_ environment variables.
    • OtlpGrpcLogRecordExporter is changed to use OtlpGrpcLogRecordExporterOptions instead, fixing the bug.
    • User code that initializes the SDK with a GRPC Log exporter, and uses exporter options, should adjust to replace OtlpGrpcExporterOptions with OtlpGrpcLogRecordExporterOptions.
    • Please check configuration variables, to make sure _LOGS_ variables are set as expected.

    • Applications makefiles that did not set WITH_STL need to use WITH_STL=OFF instead (this is the default).
    • Applications makefiles that did set WITH_STL need to use WITH_STL=ON instead, or may choose to pick a specific value.
    • In the API header files, the preprocessor symbol HAVE_CPP_STDLIB is no longer used.
    • Applications that did set HAVE_CPP_STDLIB before, need to set OPENTELEMETRY_STL_VERSION=<version> instead, to build with a specific STL version (2011, 2014, 2017, 2020, 2023).
    • The opentelemetry-cpp makefile no longer sets CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD by itself. Instead, the CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD and/or compiler options -stdc++ used by the caller are honored.
    • Applications that set neither CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD nor -stdc++ options may need to provide a C++ standard in their makefiles.

  • [REMOVAL] Drop C++11 support #2342

    • Building with C++11 is no longer supported.

  • [DOC] INSTALL doc clarifications #2078

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.

Deprecations:

  • The Jaeger Exporter is deprecated, see DEPRECATED for details.

Deprecations:

  • [MAINTAINER DOC] Define and document a deprecation process, #1923
  • [DEPRECATION] Deprecate the Jaeger exporter #1923
    • The Jaeger Exporter is deprecated, see DEPRECATED for details.

Important changes:

  • [BUILD] Cleanup CMake makefiles for CURL usage #1916
    • CMake option WITH_OTLP_HTTP
      • Before this change, the CMake option WITH_OTLP_HTTP was unpredictable, sometime set to ON and sometime set to OFF by default, depending on whether a CURL package was found or not. The option WITH_OTLP_HTTP was sometime not displayed in the ccmake UI, making it impossible to even discover there is an option of that name.
      • With this change, CMake option WITH_OTLP_HTTP is always OFF by default. WITH_OTLP_HTTP MUST be set to ON explicitly to build the OTLP HTTP exporter. The option is always visible in the ccmake UI.
    • CMake option BUILD_W3CTRACECONTEXT_TEST
      • Before this change, the W3C trace context tests were built, or not, in an unpredictable way, depending on the presence, or not, of a CURL package. In particular, the build could ignore the W3C trace context tests even when BUILD_W3CTRACECONTEXT_TEST=ON.
      • With this change, option BUILD_W3CTRACECONTEXT_TEST is honored.
    • HTTP client/server examples
      • Before this change, the HTTP client/server examples were built, or not, in an unpredictable way, depending on the presence, or not, of a CURL package.
      • With this change, a new option WITH_EXAMPLES_HTTP is used to build the HTTP client/server examples.

Deprecation notes:

  • [Deprecation] Deprecate experimental semantic conventions #1744

    • The file api/include/opentelemetry/trace/experimental_semantic_conventions.h is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release. Use file api/include/opentelemetry/trace/semantic_conventions.h instead.

    • The file sdk/include/opentelemetry/sdk/resource/experimental_semantic_conventions.h is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release. Use file sdk/include/opentelemetry/sdk/resource/semantic_conventions.h instead.

    • The function, declared in the global namespace uint32_t hashCode(const char *str, uint32_t h = 0) is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release. No replacement will be provided. Note that function opentelemetry::utils::hashCode, declared in the ETW exporter, is not affected by this deprecation.

Breaking changes:

  • [SEMANTIC CONVENTIONS] Upgrade to version 1.15.0 #1761
    • Naming of semantic conventions has changed from uppercase constants, like SemanticConventions::SERVICE_NAME, to camel case, like SemanticConventions::kServiceName. This is necessary to avoid collisions with macros in general, which breaks the build on some platforms.
    • Semantic conventions are flagged as experimental, which is why this change is done in this release.

While opentelemetry-cpp Logs are still in experimental stage, #1383 updated opentelemetry-proto to 0.17.0, which includes some breaking change in the protocol, like this. This makes name parameter for our log API unnecessary. However, this parameter is marked deprecated instead of being removed in this release, and it will be removed in future release.
