This PR also changes the way
RecordingStream
is free'd in the C/C++ API. Before we calledstream.disconnect
, which unnecessarily replaced the current sink with a buffered sink that would be immediately dropped afterwards. Not only did this cause spam in the log outputs, it also lead to race conditions upon (log) application shutdown.This PR makes it more explicit why we drop data during flushing, by bumping the log messages to
warn!
. It also improves the message by pointing the users toflush_timeout
.We also bump the default timeout from two seconds to now 3 seconds.
It's worth taking note that explicitly calling
flush_blocking
from our SDKs should be able to opt-out of this timeout, to ensure all data is sent. This will be tracked here:flush_blocking
to make flush timeout optional #9845.
