Generated files

This project uses Apache Thrift for wire-format protocol support code generation. It currently requires Thrift 0.11.0.

The code can be re-generated with

    $ git submodule update --init
    $ find idl/thrift/ -type f -name \*.thrift -exec thrift -gen cpp -out src/jaegertracing/thrift-gen {} \;
    $ git apply scripts/thrift-gen.patch

Updating Agent Host and Port

  localAgentHostPort: localhost:6831

NOTE: It is not recommended to use a remote host for UDP connections.
