@spec exception_escaped() :: :"exception.escaped"

SHOULD be set to true if the exception event is recorded at a point where it is known that the exception is escaping the scope of the span.

Value type

Value must be of type boolean().

Notes

An exception is considered to have escaped (or left) the scope of a span,
if that span is ended while the exception is still logically "in flight".
This may be actually "in flight" in some languages (e.g. if the exception
is passed to a Context manager's __exit__ method in Python) but will
usually be caught at the point of recording the exception in most languages.

It is usually not possible to determine at the point where an exception is thrown
whether it will escape the scope of a span.
However, it is trivial to know that an exception
will escape, if one checks for an active exception just before ending the span,
as done in the example for recording span exceptions.

It follows that an exception may still escape the scope of the span
even if the exception.escaped attribute was not set or set to false,
since the event might have been recorded at a time where it was not
clear whether the exception will escape.

@spec exception_message() :: :"exception.message"

The exception message.

Value type

Value must be of type atom() | String.t().

Examples

["Division by zero", "Can't convert 'int' object to str implicitly"]copy

@spec exception_stacktrace() :: :"exception.stacktrace"

A stacktrace as a string in the natural representation for the language runtime. The representation is to be determined and documented by each language SIG.

Value type

Value must be of type atom() | String.t().

Examples

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Test exception
 at com.example.GenerateTrace.methodB(GenerateTrace.java:13)
 at com.example.GenerateTrace.methodA(GenerateTrace.java:9)

@spec exception_type() :: :"exception.type"

The type of the exception (its fully-qualified class name, if applicable). The dynamic type of the exception should be preferred over the static type in languages that support it.

Value type

Value must be of type atom() | String.t().

Examples

["java.net.ConnectException", "OSError"]copy
