Improvements
Java 14
The New Relic Java agent is now fully compatible with version 14 of the OpenJDK and Hotspot JDKs.
Java Flight Recorder
A new Java Flight Recorder agent extension is now available to report real-time Java profiling metrics for application running on Java 14, including thread allocation, garbage collection and heap memory
Fixes
- The agent would log a NullPointerException when trying to accept distributed trace payloads before it had connected to rpm.newrelic.com
- Fixes an issue where W3C headers from New Relic’s .NET agent could produce malformed W3C traceparent headers
- The agent now logs ForceRestartExceptions at warning level rather than severe
- The noticeError API now supports reporting attributes of boolean and number types rather than their string representations
