Research direction

Start by comparing the reported upgrade from dd-java-agent and dd-trace-api 1.47.3 to 1.48.2 and 1.63.0, using the DD_TRACE_DEBUG output that shows a DDSpan. Focus on the Spring Boot method annotated with @Trace(measured = true) and determine why it is absent from Datadog APM; no reproduction code or specific files are provided.

Bug Report

Hi,

In our Spring Boot app, a method is annotated with @Trace(measured = true), and both com.datadoghq:dd-java-agent and com.datadoghq:dd-trace-api were 1.47.3 and I could see traces inside Datadog APM. Then I upgraded both once to 1.48.2 and 1.63.0, and then I could not find the @Trace method inside APM. For all cases I enabled DD_TRACE_DEBUG: true, and I could see the DDSpan, but I do not way for 1.48+, it is not working.

Expected Behavior

Expecting @Trace data in Datadog APM for versions 1.48+
