# Modules
* New modules: `spring-cloud-sleuth-autoconfigure`, `spring-cloud-sleuth-api`, `spring-cloud-sleuth-instrumentation`
`spring-cloud-sleuth-core` removed and changed to `spring-cloud-sleuth-instrumentation` & `spring-cloud-sleuth-api`
* Removed `spring-cloud-starter-sleuth-otel`
To add OpenTelemetry support you need to add `spring-cloud-starter-sleuth` (adds Brave by default), exclude Brave and add `spring-cloud-sleuth-otel` dependency
* Except for the tests, `spring-cloud-sleuth-autoconfigure` is the only module that can have access to `@Configuration`, `@ConfigurationProperties` classes.
Tests have been added to ensure such separation.
## Package moving
* `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth.api` -> `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth`
* `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth.brave.autoconfig` -> `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth.autoconfig.brave`
* `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth.otel.autoconfig` -> `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth.autoconfig.otel`
* `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth` -> `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth`
* Instrumentation: `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth.annotation` -> `org.springframework.cloud.sleuth.instrument.annotation`
* All the autoconfiguration classes were moved under `org.springframework.cloud/sleuth.autoconfig` package
## Global class modifications
* Any class registered as a bean is now public
## Classes
* `RateLimitingSampler` constructor changed
* Merged a lot of auto configuration classes into one (e.g. `BraveAutoConfiguration` now imports various other configurations)
* Renamed `TraceBraveAutoConfiguration` to `BraveAutoConfiguration`
* Renamed `TraceOtelAutoConfiguration` to `OtelAutoConfiguration`
* Removed all `NoOp` implementations of the API
`SpanHandler` is the base type for the now deprecated `FinishedSpanHandler`.
Notable, it can not just handle things at the end of a recording, but also the
beginning.
For example, this permits set-once baggage without the HTTP abstraction:
```java
static final BaggageField EPOCH_SECONDS = BaggageField.create("epoch_seconds");
static final class RootOnlyBaggage extends SpanHandler {
@Override
public boolean begin(TraceContext context, MutableSpan span, @Nullable TraceContext parent) {
if (EPOCH_SECONDS.getValue(context) == null) { // only set at the first span
long epochSeconds = System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000;
EPOCH_SECONDS.updateValue(context, String.valueOf(epochSeconds));
}
return true;
}
@Override public boolean end(TraceContext context, MutableSpan span, Cause cause) {
Tags.BAGGAGE_FIELD.tag(EPOCH_SECONDS, context, span);
return true;
}
}
```
As the parent is available, it can also facilitate advanced tasks like counting
children, or summarizing entire local roots.

Since for some reason, the native headers sometimes are immutable even though the accessor says that the headers are mutable, then we have to ensure their
* mutability. We do so by first making a mutable copy of the native headers, then by removing the native headers from the headers map and replacing them with a mutable copy
fixes#1184
we wanted to improve the performance of wrapping reactor by introducing refactoring that used onLastOperator instead of onEach. ALthough the performance was improved, the code stopped working the way it should.
with this commit, we're coming back to making the feature work again but the performance might decline slightly.
