[YeshanJay]

Is this a bug report?

Yes

Have you read the Contributing Guidelines?

Yes

Environment

Environment:
OS: macOS Sierra 10.12.6
Node: 8.4.0
Yarn: Not Found
npm: 5.4.1
Watchman: 4.9.0
Xcode: Xcode 8.3.3 Build version 8E3004b
Android Studio: 2.3 AI-162.4069837

Packages: (wanted => installed)
react: 16.0.0-beta.5 => 16.0.0-beta.5
react-native: ^0.49.3 => 0.49.3

Target Platform: iOS (8.0) Android (26)

Steps to Reproduce

1. For iOS, open xcode and open the project.
2. Setup release configurations.
3. Connect a device, and click on run to deploy into device.
4. An exception occurs with reason as follows:

'Unhandled JS Exception: undefined is not an object (evaluating 's.View.prop..., stack:
<unknown>@663:2841

n@2:266
global code@671:9

5. For Android, setup release configurations.
6. Open the Terminal and run: sudo react-native run-android --variant=release.
7. After the build is successful, the app is deployed to the connected device, then crashes with the following message (from logs):

8. Following are the dependencies in package.json file:

"dependencies": {
	"datejs": "^1.0.0-rc3",
	"prop-types": "^15.6.0",
	"react": "16.0.0-beta.5",

	"react-native-vector-icons": "^4.4.2",
	"react-navigation": "^1.0.0-beta.15",
	"rn-viewpager": "^1.2.4"
}

Expected Behavior

Application should run on the device without any crashes (in release mode).

Actual Behavior

Application builds successfully and deploys onto device. Then the app crashes once it opens.
Screen shots are not available since the app crashes and closes, or is just a blank screen.

Reproducible Demo

This is clearly showing that some package is still using View.propTypes. I was running into this too until I did find the offending packages. Please do the following:

1. find node_modules -name "*.map" | xargs -n 1 rm -f
2. grep -R "View.propTypes" node_modules

The first step removes all the map files so that your grep output is not flooded. You will need to reinstall node_modules later so that you get them back.

Please check thoroughly the output of the second. You can either post output here or send them to me privately. I just went through the pain myself and would like to help you.

[ujwal-setlur]

Did you check just your dependencies or the sub-dependencies of your dependencies?

[YeshanJay]

I checked only my dependencies.

I ran the commands you mentioned, and the second one printed a bunch of lines. And seems like View.propTypes is still being used in some of my dependencies (last time I only glanced around for React.propTypes).

These are the packages listed: react-native-elements, rn-viewpager

Thank you very much for helping out 😄

[ujwal-setlur]

No worries. You have to check the entire dependency tree for

1. React.PropTypes
2. PropTypes being imported from react
3. Usage of View.propTypes

All three are illegal in React 16. The fixes for those are respectively:

1. React.PropTypes -> PropTypes (import PropTypes from 'prop-types')
2. Import PropTypes from prop-types instead of react
3. View.propTypes -> ViewPropTypes (import ViewPropTypes from 'react-native')

My approach was this. Check each of those projects on GitHub and see:

1. Has it been fixed in git already? Is there a new version available? If not, use the code from the github repo in your package.json
2. Has someone issued a pull request for this? If so, use that branch.
3. Fork the GitHub repo and fix it yourself

I had to do all three :). The tricky part was when the direct dependency was clean, but a sub-dependency was not. I then had to fork both the direct dependency and its sub-dependency, fix the issue in the sub-dependency fork, change the my fork of the main dependency to use my fork of the sub-dependency.

As you can see, a bloody pain in the proverbial backside! But once I figured out the problem, it took me just a few hours to hit them all.

Good luck!

[YeshanJay]

hahaha.. I can only imagine what you went through. Thanks a lot again for saving so many hours mine 😄

[ujwal-setlur]

For anyone using code-push and running into app crashes on launch, see this:

microsoft/react-native-code-push#1064

[arma7x]

I'm downgrade to RN 0.45.1 to solve this.

[YeshanJay]

I downgraded to RN 0.48.4 for now.

[iLevye]

In my case, upgrading react-native-admob 1.3.2 to 2.0.0-beta.2 solved situation.

[hironarita]

undefined is not an object (evaluating 'a.propTypes.style')

This is the error I get. I used grep -R 'a.propTypes.style' node_modules and it doesn't even find an instance where this code is executed... I'm confused.

[ujwal-setlur]

Don't include the 'a'. Please grep for propStyles.style? Is it attached to a View object? In my experience, it is one of the following:

1. PropStyles imported from react
2. Usage of React.PropStyles
3. Usage of View.propStyles

Please check thoroughly for all three.

[ujwal-setlur]

Also check your own code

[hironarita]

@ujwal-setlur My grep for 'View.propTypes' outputs a lot of examples like style: ViewPropTypes ? ViewPropTypes.style : View.propTypes.style. Did you have to remove those too?

[ujwal-setlur]

No those are fine. Those are packages that are trying to be backwards compatible. They first check for ViewPropStyles and then for View.propStyles if ViewPropStyles is essentially null or undefined

[hironarita]

Those are the only instances where View.propTypes are being used. Nothing else... Strange.

[ujwal-setlur]

@hironarita did you check your code first? If so, good.

Unfortunately, you need to check the node_modules code minutely. Please also check for just propStyles.style.

Yes, this is a bloody pain. If you want you, you can send the output to me and I am happy to double-check for you

[ujwal-setlur]

@hironarita, can you list your dependencies and devDependencies from your package.json?

[hironarita]

@ujwal-setlur I checked my own code and there's no instances of View.propTypes.

This lets you compose different types of ScrollView-like components while preserving the ScrollView API, including methods like scrollTo.\n\nSee react-native-scrollable-decorator for the decorator version of this mixin.\n\n\n\n## Installation\n\nnpm install react-native-scrollable-mixin\n\n\n## Usage\n\nAdd ScrollableMixin to your scrollable React components and implement getScrollResponder(), which must return the underlying scrollable component's scroll responder.\n\n## With JavaScript classes\n\nUse Object.assign to copy ScrollableMixin's functions to your class's prototype as instance methods:\n\njs\nclass InfiniteScrollView extends React.Component {\n static propTypes = {\n ...ScrollView.propTypes,\n renderScrollComponent: PropTypes.func.isRequired\n };\n\n /**\n * IMPORTANT: You must return the scroll responder of the underlying\n * scrollable component from getScrollResponder() when using ScrollableMixin.\n */\n getScrollResponder() {\n return this._scrollView.getScrollResponder();\n }\n\n setNativeProps(props) {\n this._scrollView.setNativeProps(props);\n }\n\n render() {\n let { renderScrollComponent, ...props } = this.props;\n return React.cloneElement(renderScrollComponent(props), {\n ref: component => { this._scrollView = component; },\n });\n }\n}\n\n// Mix in ScrollableMixin's methods as instance methods\nObject.assign(InfiniteScrollView.prototype, ScrollableMixin);\n\n\n### With React.createClass\n\njs\nlet ScrollableMixin = require('react-native-scrollable-mixin');\n\nlet InfiniteScrollView = React.createClass({\n mixins: [ScrollableMixin],\n\n propTypes: {\n ...ScrollView.propTypes,\n renderScrollComponent: PropTypes.func.isRequired,\n },\n\n /**\n * IMPORTANT: You must return the scroll responder of the underlying\n * scrollable component from getScrollResponder() when using ScrollableMixin.\n */\n getScrollResponder() {\n return this._scrollView.getScrollResponder();\n },\n\n setNativeProps(props) {\n this._scrollView.setNativeProps(props);\n },\n\n render() {\n var {\n renderScrollComponent,\n ...props\n } = this.props;\n return React.cloneElement(renderScrollComponent(props), {\n ref: component => { this._scrollView = component; },\n });\n },\n});\n\n\n## Features\n\nBy mixing in ScrollableMixin, your custom component gets the ScrollView API.

Custom tab bars must consume a style prop on their outer element to support this feature: style={this.props.style}.\n- onChangeTab (Function) - function to call when tab changes, should accept 1 argument which is an Object containing two keys: i: the index of the tab that is selected, ref: the ref of the tab that is selected\n- onScroll (Function) - function to call when the pages are sliding, should accept 1 argument which is an Float number representing the page position in the slide frame.\n- locked (Bool) - disables horizontal dragging to scroll between tabs, default is false.\n- initialPage (Integer) - the index of the initially selected tab, defaults to 0 === first tab.\n- page (Integer) - set selected tab(can be buggy see #126\n- children (ReactComponents) - each top-level child component should have a tabLabel prop that can be used by the tab bar component to render out the labels. The default tab bar expects it to be a string, but you can use anything you want if you make a custom tab bar.\n- tabBarUnderlineStyle (View.propTypes.style) - style of the default tab bar's underline.\n- tabBarBackgroundColor (String) - color of the default tab bar's background, defaults to white\n- tabBarActiveTextColor (String) - color of the default tab bar's text when active, defaults to navy\n- tabBarInactiveTextColor (String) - color of the default tab bar's text when inactive, defaults to black\n- tabBarTextStyle (Object) - Additional styles to the tab bar's text. Example: {fontFamily: 'Roboto', fontSize: 15}\n- style (View.propTypes.style)\n- contentProps (Object) - props that are applied to root ScrollView/ViewPagerAndroid. Note that overriding defaults set by the library may break functionality; see the source for details.\n- scrollWithoutAnimation (Bool) - on tab press change tab without animation.\n- prerenderingSiblingsNumber (Integer) - pre-render nearby # sibling, Infinity === render all the siblings, default to 0 === render current page.\n\n## Contribution\nIssues are welcome.

Ok, I will check these in the morning.

[hironarita]

Thank you so much.

[gameboyVito]

After spending tons of time to find out a better solution, I found out there's no need to modify all 3rd party library. The tricky part is to make sure your dev dependencies are correct and use react-native@0.49.5 to build your release. Run react-native-git-upgrade 0.49.5

"devDependencies": {
    "babel-jest": "21.2.0",
    "babel-preset-react-native": "4.0.0",
    "jest": "21.2.1",
    "react-test-renderer": "16.0.0-beta.5"
  },

[musicode]

modify react/index.js

'use strict';

import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

let React;
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
  React = require('./cjs/react.production.min.js');
} else {
  React = require('./cjs/react.development.js');
}

React.PropTypes = PropTypes;

module.exports = React;

[ZKeLin]

@ujwal-setlur you are right .I have solued it. I spent too much time for this problem due to another no updated module, it's too painful , thanks so much

[scue]

@ujwal-setlur Thank you very much!

I change

"react-native-elements": "^0.17.0",

to:

"react-native-elements": "github:react-native-training/react-native-elements#v0.18.0",

and everything go well.

[ujwal-setlur]

glad my pain made yours' shorter :-)

[ftb2010]

@ujwal-setlur The same code RN0.49.5 Android Release is ok,but when i update from RN0.49.5 to RN0.50.1 Android Release crash again!Any suggestion?

[ujwal-setlur]

I haven't moved to 0.50 yet. Will look at it today.

[phu-tang]

thanks, but is there any way to work around. let say, I use a lot of lib in my project it's very hard to fix all of them. :( and why this problem only happened in release version?

[shubhanshusingh]

How I solved this:

1. grep -R "View.propTypes" node_modules
   above command fetches me list of all packages to update in my case ex. rn-viewpager,react-native-material-ui etc.

2. Installed and cloned these scripts. https://github.com/reactjs/react-codemod#reactnative-view-proptypes

3. ran command for each module found in step 1 https://github.com/reactjs/react-codemod#reactnative-view-proptypes

[dhanushuUzumaki]

I think I don't have any dependencies using View.PropTypes but still release variant crashes.
Using RN 0.51.0

Here is my output of the grep.

node_modules/react-native/Libraries/Lists/ListView/ListView.js: ...ScrollView.propTypes,
node_modules/react-native/Libraries/Components/WebView/WebView.ios.js: decelerationRate: ScrollView.propTypes.decelerationRate,

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Update: Jan 8 2017. Downgrading to RN 0.45.1 and React 16.0.0-alpha.8 solved the issue for me.

I had to update my dependencies to utilize the new ViewPropTypes convention. Curious though why does this break in release builds and not in dev builds? Would love a deeper understanding of why i only caught this when testing on our staging environments.

[jaycee425]

Curios about it too, since had the same problem

Thanks for posting this! It looks like you may not be using the latest version of React Native, v0.53.0, released on January 2018. Can you make sure this issue can still be reproduced in the latest version?

I am going to close this, but please feel free to open a new issue if you are able to confirm that this is still a problem in v0.53.0 or newer.

Still facing this issue in V. 0.53.3.

I'm also having this problem on v0.53.3, but I cannot pin point the culprit library

after three days fighting with this issue I use the solution of @dhanushuUzumaki
just Downgrading to RN 0.45.1 and React 16.0.0-alpha.8 solved the issue for me.

[brianinator]

I followed the steps to transverse dependencies and sub dependencies. I discovered gl-react and react-native-google-places-autocomplete to be bad eggs in my case. gl-react I upgraded to 2.3.1 and I use the other internally so I removed the usage of React.createClass. A coworker suggested that maybe we be more strict on warnings via eslint. (https://github.com/yannickcr/eslint-plugin-react/blob/master/docs/rules/no-deprecated.md)

[MaxInMoon]

react-native-multi-slider was the cause for me with react-native@0.53.3

[mosleim]

  "dependencies": {
    "@babel/runtime": "^7.1.2",

    "react-native-charts-wrapper": "^0.4.8",

Same for me.

The error is so cryptic, its difficult to find what the issue is. This is only a problem in Android and not iOS.
