Hi, Before we used the library Kotlin-Coroutines_1.4.jar which was the latest and the timestamp of files inside is 17/3/2021. This library worked nicely with coroutines propagating the transaction between suspend function calls. But when i tried the latest with our coroutine version (1.10.2) using the agent v8.24.0 (which seems to not have the extensions yet) the result is the newrelic transaction is not propagated in some cases like proxied functions, or async functions based on completablefuture, etc. I'm hoping to use the latest extensions but seems to have regressed from that 2021 version?

Thanks!

One thing to note is that previous versions had problems with instrumenting Suspend Functions due to the way that Kotlin compiles Suspend Functions. The latest version fixes that problem but does require that the Java Agent version 8.20.0 or later. This fix requires that a Java System property be set when using Kotlin otherwise when it attempts to instrument the method it throws an exception.
Did you set this flag?
-Dnewrelic.config.class_transformer.clear_return_stacks=true
If not, please set and retest.
If it is set and problems still exist then let me know and we will investigate further

Also note that the latest release has been migrated to the Java Agent and this repository is set to be archived.

yes i use that option, will do a test again with the latest agent with the extension bundled in, thanks!
