Currently the sdk
Tracer
implementation will filter out invalid / dropped parent span contexts. This causes the parent based sampler to not function properly as it will then assume that child spans are roots.This patch resolves this issue by adding a
has_active_span
method to the trace context extension, which allows the tracer to distinguish between invalid and unset parent contexts.Fixes #351
