@deprecated Use the remove() method on the event subscription returned by addEventListener().

[URvesh109]

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch rn-swipe-button@1.3.7 for the project I'm working on.

Here is the diff that solved my problem:

Any news for this change? :)

@JakeOrel @rasmusviben @UdaySravanK I tried to make a PR but was unable to launch the example project locally to test it. Right now it only reflects changes proposed by @URvesh109, without testing on my side.

I have this error when trying to launch the example project :
Unable to make field private final java.lang.String java.io.File.path accessible: module java.base does not "opens java.io" to unnamed module @3cf320c0

when executing this command :
yarn run android after yarn start

I have installed the dependencies with yarn, setup my IDE to run JDK15 (and tried JDK1.8 before that, and JDK18 before that). I've been able to build the project (gradle build) but not launching it. Your advices / tests / PR review would be welcome.

I also got this warning:

LogBox.js:173 EventEmitter.removeListener('deviceEventName', ...): Method has been deprecated. Please instead use remove() on the subscription returned by EventEmitter.addListener. at SwipeButton

This issue has been addressed in the latest patch release v1.3.8. Thanks for bringing it up.
