docs(Tracer): remove link to nonexistent method #381

Open dmedinag opened 3 years ago

dmedinag commented 3 years ago

The previously referred method was removed from the API, hence it no longer exists. Must say too that semantic versioning was used wrong! Removing this method was a breaking change. The same as removing ScopeManager.activate(Span span, boolean finishSpanOnClose). Please be more careful with the versioning of the libs, deprecating a method is better than removing directly :)

Nope, it wasn't used incorrectly. OpenTracing never made it out of 0.y.z:

Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything MAY change at any time. The public API SHOULD NOT be considered stable.
