client_java 1.2.0 available

[Fabian Stäber]

Hello everyone,

We just released client_java 1.2.0. The release has some nice features and enhancements. Thanks a lot to everyone who contributed.

• [FEATURE] new Dropwizard instrumentation module prometheus-metrics-instrumentation-dropwizard5. Thanks @kingster
• [FEATURE] new Javax exporter servlet module prometheus-metrics-exporter-servlet-javax. Thanks @kingster
• [FEATURE] expose native memory metrics when the JVM was started with -XX:NativeMemoryTracking=summary. Thanks @meier-christoph
• [FEATURE] minor API additions: get() methods for Counter and Gauge, clear() method for all metrics.
• [FEATURE] add Exemplars to Histogram _count if the config option exemplarsOnAllMetricTypes is enabled.
• [ENHANCEMENT] remove Exemplars from Summary _sum, because it's sufficient to have Exemplars on _count.
• [BUGFIX] error handling when the HTTP connection closes unexpectedly during scrape. Thanks @dhoard
• [ENHANCEMENT] add BOM (bill of materials) module prometheus-metrics-bom.

Have a great weekend

Fabian
