AppDelegate.m build error: "No visible @interface for 'RCTBundleURLProvider' ..."

What happened?

AppDelegate.m build error: "No visible @interface for 'RCTBundleURLProvider' error when following https://wix.github.io/react-native-navigation/docs/installing#native-installation

The solution was to change the code snippet from:

- (NSURL *)sourceURLForBridge:(RCTBridge *)bridge
    return [[RCTBundleURLProvider sharedSettings] jsBundleURLForBundleRoot:@"index" fallbackResource:nil];
...

to:

- (NSURL *)sourceURLForBridge:(RCTBridge *)bridge
    return [[RCTBundleURLProvider sharedSettings] jsBundleURLForBundleRoot:@"index"];
...

The fallbackResource was removed, found similar issue here https://github.com/expo/fyi/issues/70

What was the expected behaviour?

Compiles without issues

Was it tested on latest react-native-navigation?

• [X] I have tested this issue on the latest react-native-navigation release and it still reproduces.

Help us reproduce this issue!

create new rn app latest version add latest react-native-navigation version

ran into https://github.com/wix/react-native-navigation/issues/7819 but patching files worked.

auto-linking didn't work so I had to patch the android and ios files manually following https://wix.github.io/react-native-navigation/docs/installing#manual-installation

try to compile, errors with AppDelegate.m build error: "No visible @interface for 'RCTBundleURLProvider' ..."
