> > _I'm afraid I don't understand how a standalone executable would work. Would it be a sort of CLI tool to load and arbitrary driver and run queries?_ > > I'm assuming that the collector doesn't need to run in the same process as the producer. If that's not true, then this suggestion is pointless. But if it is true, then a collector could be started manually while something was happening and just record traces during that time before being stopped manually again. > > I may be improperly projecting an internal `EventTracer` app I wrote onto a circumstance that isn't really equivalent. To the best of my knowledge, The [`ActivityListener`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.diagnostics.activitylistener?view=net-9.0) needs to be in-process. The `ActivityListener` does not have an RPC to send to an external process, by itself. Enabling the OTLP exporter becomes the in-process collector that is then responsible for forwarding/sending to an OTLP endpoint like the OTel Collector. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
