Fix ios build error when use_frameworks is on and fabric is off (v2) #33409

Kudo · 2022-03-11T08:24:48Z

Summary

alternative solution for #33379

when use_frameworks! is on, there are errors like:
'FBReactNativeSpec/FBReactNativeSpec.h' file not found
#import <FBReactNativeSpec/FBReactNativeSpec.h>
this error may come from from f7e4c07c84b6 regression.

when use_frameworks! is on, xcode will search headers from framework directories, the correct imports would be #import <React_Codegen/FBReactNativeSpec/FBReactNativeSpec.h> (xcode will transform dash to underscore, so it is React_Codegen but not React-Codegen). in the other hand, when use_frameworks! is off, the correct import is #import <React-Codegen/FBReactNativeSpec/FBReactNativeSpec.h>.

this fix is specific for old architecture (fabric is off).

when fabric is on, there are other errors from duplicated headers when copying to build folder. the reason is that framework build would try to flatten headers. we have primitives.h in different folders and they would be flattened into React_Fabric.framework/Headers. to be honest, i don't know how to deal with the problem in the meantime, maybe subspecs are not enough, we should separate them from subspecs to dedicated podspecs so that we can have these targets as different frameworks.

in this alternative fix, i try to add React-Codegen/React_Codegen.framework/Headers into header search paths and make original #import <FBReactNativeSpec/FBReactNativeSpec.h> reachable.

this change in the pr is just a workaround to solve breaking in latest main branch and this is not important to the use_frameworks! fix at all. this breaking was coming from 1804951.

@mikehardy could you help to verify this solution for your cases when you get a chance?
this is the patch file for v0.68.0-rc.2: https://gist.github.com/Kudo/7a590cbd6f8ca33fdf9f706ac96049ea

cortinico · 2022-03-11T12:43:40Z

It's all green interally so we should be good to go 👍

mikehardy · 2022-03-11T14:52:25Z

Fantastic! Verifying now @Kudo

mikehardy · 2022-03-11T16:19:29Z

It appears to work, applying this patch https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Kudo/7a590cbd6f8ca33fdf9f706ac96049ea/raw/00ff89b8c56b30f0db90bf1c74d4cdbe7c9f1612/react-native+0.68.0-rc.2.patch during my normal test of static frameworks build on iOS resulted in successful compilation + execution of the app

Nice!

@Kudo please revert this change. It is not related to the original issue, and it breaks our internal tests.
Other than that, this solution looks good!

would these also need revert @dmitryrykun ? just scanning this after seeing your comment and they seem similar

Yeah, I meant all the changes in RCTExceptionsManager.
