Description

Describe your environment
I am compiling from the source

Should I compile two different versions, on with gRPC and another with HTTP?

-DWITH_OTLP_GRPC=ON
-DWITH_OTLP_HTTP=ON

In case of compile with gRPC and HTTP = ON, how could I select which to use? or it is not necessary to?

What is the expected behavior?
A selector of which protocol use

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by tracing the CMake options -DWITH_OTLP_GRPC and -DWITH_OTLP_HTTP and the OTLP exporter configuration to determine how protocol selection currently works. Done means documenting or implementing an unambiguous way to select HTTP or gRPC when both options are enabled.
