Description

After installing react-native-geolocation and running pod install, I get the following build error:

Property 'sourceInformation' not found on object of type 'CLLocation *'

In file RNCGeolocation.mm

I see that the call is wrapped in @available but I don't know enough about Objective C to know why this would or wouldn't work:

  if (@available(iOS 15.0, *)) {
    mocked = location.sourceInformation.isSimulatedBySoftware;
  }

I am building for iOS 14.4 which does not have the CLLocation.sourceInformation property

Reproducible Demo

None at this time but I can provide if necessary

Thank you for reporting. Can you tell me more about what you exactly mean by building for 14.4?

The @available check prevents runtime crashes while running on iOS lower than 15. A minimum deployment target of 12.0 is supported.

@michalchudziak After just installation of react-native-geolocation throw same error for me as well.

@michalchudziak Sorry for the delay in responding but looks like others are having the same problem above. If you see my full environment list, I am using an older macbook with Catalina, so I am using XCode 12.4 and targeteting iOS v14.4.

as @Asmatchd shared in the screenshot, I am getting the same error

Having the same problem (on 2015 Macbook Air, Big Sur, XCode 12.5, targeting IOS 14.5). Any suggested workarounds?
