Description
What are you trying to achieve?
I have a doubt now. Suppose I use jni in a Java program to call a c++ sdk written by myself. At the same time, the relevant opentelemetry SDK is connected to the Java application and C++ SDK to report trace data. How can I combine the span generated in the Java program with the span generated in the C++ program? I don't really want to use the method of passing parameters to transparently pass the traceId and spanId generated in the Java program to the c++ sdk. Is there any other way?

Research direction
No repository file, test, or entry point is named, so begin by locating the Java JNI and C++ tracing integration documentation. Done would require a documented, supported way to correlate the Java and C++ spans without manually passing trace and span IDs.
