[1.1.0] - 2025-07-01

Breaking Changes

  • OpenTelemetry Modernization: Removed deprecated OpenTelemetry.Exporter.Jaeger package in favor of the modern OTLP exporter
  • API Changes: Updated AddWebSparkOpenTelemetryWithExporters method signature:
    • Removed jaegerEndpoint parameter
    • Kept otlpEndpoint parameter (supports Jaeger, Zipkin, and other OTLP-compatible systems)

Improved

  • Modern OpenTelemetry: Migrated to OTLP (OpenTelemetry Protocol) exporter which provides better compatibility
  • Reduced Dependencies: Eliminated deprecated package dependencies for a cleaner dependency tree
  • Enhanced Documentation: Updated OpenTelemetry configuration documentation to reflect OTLP-first approach
  • Build Stability: Resolved compilation issues related to deprecated Jaeger exporter

Technical Details

  • OTLP Support: The OTLP exporter supports multiple tracing backends including:
    • Jaeger (via OTLP endpoint)
    • Zipkin (via OTLP endpoint)
    • Other OTLP-compatible systems
    • Cloud-native observability platforms
  • Configuration: Simplified configuration with single otlpEndpoint parameter that works with all supported backends
  • Future-Proof: Using the recommended modern approach for OpenTelemetry exporters

[1.0.10] - 2025-05-24

Added

  • Streaming Support: Implemented comprehensive streaming functionality for large HTTP responses with configurable thresholds
  • OpenTelemetry Integration: Added full OpenTelemetry support with multiple exporters (Console, Jaeger, OTLP, InMemory)
  • OpenTelemetry Test Suite: Complete MSTest-based integration tests for OpenTelemetry functionality
  • StreamingHelper: New utility class for efficient processing of large responses over configurable size thresholds

Improved

  • Build Stability: Fixed all compilation errors and warnings for both .NET 8.0 and .NET 9.0 targets
  • Resource Management: Completed comprehensive audit of IDisposable usage and resource cleanup patterns
  • Test Framework Consistency: Standardized all tests to use MSTest framework instead of mixed frameworks
  • Memory Efficiency: Enhanced processing of large HTTP responses through streaming implementation
  • HttpRequestMessagePoolPolicy: Fixed .NET compatibility issues with HttpVersion and HttpRequestOptions

Fixed
