Thanks @kelset and @Titozzz for digging into the react-native-codegen issues. I think that applying https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/5f7deb5f1d17050ce399dd43a86495d5c3c8ba83 to 0.65, without upstreaming to main, is reasonable.

For context, we would not want this change in main because the code-gen files (FBReactNativeSpec.h and its Obj-C++ counterpart) can be derived from the JavaScript source files in Libraries/ by react-native-codegen, and we would not want to have conflicts in what react-native-codegen outputs at build time versus what is checked into the repository.

Thanks for clarifying - this is very close to our assumption for why the two files were ignored in the first place šŸ‘ I think that one consideration to do at a later point (when talking about RN OSS releases >= 0.66) is if we should bring this mechanism back more "formally"; meaning, when a release branch is out, we should revert the gitignore line about the two files so that at the local E2E test phase they will get generated and so they will be bundled with the "released" RN node module (which will, as it was done for 0.64 and 0.65) that ios builds will not fail.

@hramos Is making react-native-codegen work more seamlessly and moving the dependency from the template into main package.json on FB's backlog? It would be great if we didn't have to spend so much effort on this next release.

I tried 0.65.0-rc.4 on my app.

Compilation on both Android and iOS on both debug and release works fine!

kelset commented 3 years ago

great report, thanks @mhammerc! We'll release 0.65.0 later today, hopefully the third party packages you listed will catch up quickly to the new release :)

I tried 0.65.0-rc.4 on my app.

  • On iOS, I had set flipper to a specific version inferior to 0.93. It failed to build. But setting back the default value (use_flipper!()) fixed the compilation issue.
  • I had to patch the package react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view and react-native-blurhash because of api changes. (patch files/pr available on both repositories)
  • Works fine on iOS on debug and release! I had to disable react-native-codepush for release, otherwise the bundle could not be found šŸ¤”
  • On Android, I get loads of warning new NativeEventEmitter() was called with a non-null argument without the required removeListeners method.. I could not test my app further because react-native-reanimated crash (both debug & release).

Compilation on both Android and iOS on both debug and release works fine!
