Annotation Type NewSpan

@Retention(RUNTIME) @Inherited @Target(METHOD) public @interface NewSpan
Allows to create a new span around a public method. The new span will be either a child of an existing span if a trace is already in progress or a new span will be created if there was no previous trace.

Method parameters can be annotated with SpanTag, which will end in adding the parameter value as a tag value to the span. The tag key will be the value of the key annotation from SpanTag.
