Class IdConversion

java.lang.Object

com.github.kristofa.brave.IdConversion

public class IdConversion
extends java.lang.Object

Contains conversion utilities for converting trace and span ids from long to string and vice versa.

The string representation is used when transferring trace context from client to server as http headers.

This implementation is expected to be compatible with Zipkin. This is important in case you mix brave services with zipkin / finagle services.

The only difference between the zipkin implementation and this implementation is that zipkin prepends '0' characters in case String does not contain 16 characters. For example instead of generating String "0" for long id 0 it generates "0000000000000000". But zipkin will properly convert String representations in case they are not prepended with 0's.
