Module: Foam::Otel::Errors

Defined in:
lib/foam/otel/errors.rb

Overview

Backs the record_exception helper: records onto the active span a standard OTel exception event + ERROR status, deduped per span by exception object identity so recording the same exception twice produces ONE event. Recording an exception must never raise (BASE_PACKAGE_SPEC rule 9); recordException accepts customer error classes and never notifies any vendor tracker (section 0 traces row).

The seen-set lives ON the span object (an instance variable), not in a thread-local: a request span can be recorded on one thread and finished on another (ActionController::Live streams from a separate thread), so a thread-local would miss the dedupe across threads and leak entries. Span-carried state is GC'd with the span and travels with it.
