rncore/States.cpp Build input file cannot be found:

[khanakia]

I installed a fresh application and it ran fine after that I followed the instructions to install the scanner app.

Once i installed the package now i could not build anymore

/Users/test/BarcodeScannerTest/node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/react/renderer/components/rncore/States.cpp Build input file cannot be found: 

'/Users/test/BarcodeScannerTest/node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/react/renderer/components/rncore/States.cpp'. Did you forget to declare this file as an output of a script phase or custom build rule which produces it?

I believe it's related to this issue https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76721082/react-native-error-build-input-file-cannot-be-found-node-modules-react-nativ

Please share the "npx react-native info" command output, package.json and podfile

I have uploaded a test repo here https://github.com/khanakia/BarcodeScannerTest

Test repo is working fine below is the screenshot (You just missed the installation of react-native-permissions)

[khanakia]

Yes i am able to run now

[pushpender-singh-ap]

@khanakia I think you don't setup the react native permissions that why you facing this issue?

[khanakia]

Yes it's working now but another issue is it's not able to scan all the barcodes As you can see below screenshot i am able to scan EID and MEID but it's not scanning IMEI and IMEI2

[pushpender-singh-ap]

Let me check is this AVFoundation support these type of Barcodes.

[pushpender-singh-ap]

Barcode scanning work properly even with IMEI & 2 (CODE 128 type of barcode)

[khanakia]

Strange. I am testing with iPhone 13 Pro Camera it only scans MEID and EID, not the IMEI

[khanakia]

I have confirmed with different Phone Imei Barcode it just gives this error when i scan via iPhone 13

2023-09-25 23:21:51.859975+0530 BarcodeScannerTest[50051:8125391] SocketStream read error [0x283118000]: 1 54

Just a note Do you provide some kind of Paid support to help us solve the problem if possible ?

Thanks, Pushpender

[pushpender-singh-ap]

@khanakia Thank you for sharing the log. I'll thoroughly investigate and debug the issue. If you happen to discover a solution, please feel free to submit a pull request. While I genuinely appreciate your offer of paid support, it won't be necessary at this time.

[khanakia]

If you happen to be available over call tomorrow if possible i can share you my screen and show you the issue may be that will help also check in another iPhone too

[pushpender-singh-ap]

You can provide me the screen recording.

[khanakia]

I will do. Also, i just tried this app https://github.com/alfianlosari/BarcodeTextScannerSwiftUI and it worked fine It seems they are using Vision Kit not 100% sure

[khanakia]

You can provide me the screen recording.

Here's the video https://i.analyzify.app/QwuBQOZv

you will be able to see it scans the EID and MEDI only

[khanakia]

@pushpender-singh-ap I have checked many other libraries react-native-camera-kit, react-native-camera v2, expo-barcode-scanner etc. All of them also not working also for the IMEI scan but i also used some native apps like above i sent you which are using Apple Vision Kit so they are working.

It has to do with something or some bug within not Avfoundation maybe

[pushpender-singh-ap]

@khanakia I was try to add vision kit but it's failed because in vision kit apple not provide the objective-c documentation for DataScannerViewController.

[khanakia]

Hi DataScannerViewController is only available for Swift we can try to use this https://developer.apple.com/documentation/visionkit/vndocumentcameraviewcontroller or VNDocumentCameraScan

[pushpender-singh-ap]

Hello @khanakia , could you kindly clone this repository: https://github.com/pushpender-singh-ap/react-native-nativeios-scanner and attempt to scan the IMEI barcode? Unfortunately, I don't currently have access to any iPhone devices, so I'm unable to test it myself at the moment. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated!

[khanakia]

Also pod install was giving error so first i did bundle install and then ran RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED=1 bundle exec pod install Getting this error while building

[pushpender-singh-ap]

@khanakia Can you compile for Simulator because i was build on Simulator it's working correctly but not sure about the real-device.

[khanakia]

same error

ld: library not found for -ld_classic
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

[khanakia]

It has to do something with this because when i compare this with the New React project there are no flags i could find -Wl -ld_classic

[pushpender-singh-ap]

Run this command in you rootProject yarn add ./react-native-nativeios-scanner && cd .. && node react-native-nativeios-scanner/node_modules/react-native/scripts/generate-codegen-artifacts.js \ --path react-native-nativeios-scanner/ \ --outputPath react-native-nativeios-scanner/react-native-nativeios-scanner/generated/

after this cd project and ios run RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED=1 bundle exec pod install

[khanakia]

I am not using the module in my project i simply ran the command inside this repo root https://github.com/pushpender-singh-ap/react-native-nativeios-scanner

Getting error

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1080
  throw err;

[khanakia]

I was able to install the app after i removed the below flags

"-Wl",
"-ld_classic",
"-Wl",
"-ld_classic",

But i do not see any camera and also i tried clicking Start Scanning button

[pushpender-singh-ap]

@khanakia Thanks for the update i will check this why it's happening.

[khanakia]

For now i have created a custom module in OLD Arch https://github.com/khanakia/react-native-barcodeoldarch as i needed this urgently.

Once you are able to complete your module i will replace it with yours.

Thanks @pushpender-singh-ap
