[Obsolete("Use Google.Cloud.Diagnostics.AspNetCore.AspNetCoreTraceExtensions.TryAddGoogleTraceContextProvider instead.")]public class GoogleTraceProvider:IExternalTraceProvider
If this is registered as a dependency, then Log Entries will be associated with
the Google trace and span.
To be used when the Tracing component of the Google.Cloud.Diagnostics libraries
is not configured, but Google traces are still being generated, for instance,
because the application is being run in Google Cloud.
If the Tracing component is configured, log entries are automatically associated
to Google traces and spans.
Methods
GetCurrentTraceContext(IServiceProvider)
public TraceContextForLogEntry GetCurrentTraceContext(IServiceProvider serviceProvider)
Returns the TraceContextForLogEntry that can be associated to a log entry or
null if there's currently no trace context.
