StackdriverTraceExporter java.lang.IllegalAccessError

[maduris]

Please answer these questions before submitting a bug report.

What version of OpenCensus are you using?

0.24.0

What JVM are you using (java -version)?

1.8

What did you do?

If possible, provide a recipe for reproducing the error.
I am using the following libraries to use stackdriver exporter with opencensus traces

io.opencensus
opencensus-api
0.24.0


io.opencensus
opencensus-exporter-trace-stackdriver
0.24.0


io.opencensus
opencensus-impl
0.24.0
runtime

Initialising a Tracer with Exporter as:

public Tracer build() 
{
      try {

          StackdriverTraceExporter.createAndRegister(
                  StackdriverTraceConfiguration.builder().build());

      } catch (Exception e) {

          LOGGER.error("Error: Cannot connect to cloud trace, {}", e);

      }

      TraceConfig traceConfig = Tracing.getTraceConfig();
      traceConfig.updateActiveTraceParams(traceConfig.getActiveTraceParams().toBuilder().setSampler(Samplers.alwaysSample()).build());

      return Tracing.getTracer();

    }

After creating spans calling the exporter using:

Tracing.getExportComponent().shutdown();

What did you expect to see?

Traces exported to stackdriver

What did you see instead?

Additional context

In version 0.20.0 the same lines of code are able to export traces to stackdriver.

I've also encountered similar exception(when using https://github.com/census-ecosystem/opencensus-scala).

I've pulled master of opencensus-java(precisely from this commit: 49bac50), built it locally, and used this version as my dependency.
This resolved error.

If I had to guess, I would tell that this commit might be relevant in this case: 61a025e

We are also seeing these exceptions in our production environment

Same here, failing with 0.24.0 and 0.26.0 but passed with 0.23.0
