Outdated auto-annotations library doesn't work with v1.0.x

[topher1120]

Attempting to use the @WithSpan annotation in the library "opentelemetry-extension-auto-annotations" v 0.10.0 (the latest release on maven.org) with "opentelemetry-api" v1.0.1 (and presumably 1.0.0) causes a runtime ClassNotFoundException.
Specifically, the message is "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: io.opentelemetry.api.trace.Span$Kind". Looking at the source on GitHub, this has been fixed in main, but has not been released.

Can a new version of opentelemetry-extension-auto-annotations be released to resolve this?

Steps to reproduce
Create a project with the OpenTelemetry Java Agent v1.0.1. Add opentelemetry-extension-auto-annotations v0.10.0 (I also added opentelemetry-api v1.0.1) to the project. Add a @WithSpan annotation to a method in a class. Compile will work, but error will happen during runtime.
I'm using a Spring application, so it happens during startup on a controller.

What did you expect to see?
I expected no exceptions and that spans would be created and exported.

What did you see instead?
ClassNotFoundException when the annotation was loaded.

What version and what artifacts are you using?
Artifacts: opentelemetry-api v1.0.1, opentelemetry-javaagent v1.0.1, opentelemetry-extension-auto-annotations v0.10.0

Environment
Compiler: Zulu v11.0.10
OS: XUbuntu 20.04

that module was renamed to opentelemetry-extension-annotations and should work fine with the appropriate versions.

for the latest list of non-alpha versions and modules, I recommend taking a look at the contents of the bom:

Thank you, I'll take a look at that tomorrow. Documentation at https://opentelemetry.io/docs/java/automatic_instrumentation/#configure-withspan-annotation appears to be out of date with the release. If no one else updates, I may have time to submit a PR this weekend.

we're working on getting the docs fixed as well. #3081
