package com.github.kristofa.brave;

/**
 * Contains conversion utilities for converting trace and span ids from long to string and vice
 * versa.
 * 
 * The string representation is used when transferring trace context from client to server
 * as http headers.
 * 

 * This implementation is expected to be compatible with Zipkin. This is important in case you
 * mix brave services with zipkin / finagle services.
 * 
 * The only difference between the zipkin implementation and this implementation 
 * is that zipkin prepends '0' characters in case String does not contain 16 characters. 
 * For example instead of generating String 
 * "0" for long id 0 it generates "0000000000000000". But zipkin will properly convert String
 * representations in case they are not prepended with 0's.
