             Summary: TraceRunnable and TraceCallable should pull description from child thread instead of parent
                 Key: HTRACE-355
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTRACE-355
             Project: HTrace
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core
    Affects Versions: 4.1
            Reporter: Mike Drob
            Assignee: Mike Drob
         Attachments: HTRACE-355.patch.txt

If a TraceRunnable or TraceCallable is passed a null scope name, then it will set the description to the current thread's name, which happens to be the parent thread. It would be much more useful to set the description to the child thread's name.

A nice side effect of this change is that we can add a version of {{tracer.newTraceExecutor}} that doesn't need to take a description for use by applications that take great care to name their threads in an informative manner.
