_this is not defined

If you are reporting a bug or having an issue setting up React Hot Loader, please fill in below. For feature requests, feel free to remove this template entirely.

Description

An error occurs when I change a component and the hot reloading refreshes the code. The reference to the this gets lost.
When I refresh the page, the method works.
I then go and change a component, and try the same method, it loses the this reference and it breaks.

Expected behavior

The error should not occur.

Actual behavior

Environment

React Hot Loader version: 4.2.0 and also 4.3.1

Run these commands in the project folder and fill in their results:

1. node -v: 8.10.0
2. npm -v: 6.0.1

Then, specify:

1. Operating system: Mac
2. Browser and version: Latest chrome

I've noticed this being a standard issue, but in other, resolved issues the problem was with the versions of the this, like _this1...10 etc.

This is function actually a function of your component, or it should not be reloaded at all?
Ie #1001

[mnemanja]

this is a reference to the react component in which the method resides and it tries to access it.

I do not think I'm doing anything wrong react-wise. How can this be fixed?

[theKashey]

should be fixed in v4.3.3

[mnemanja]

I can confirm that it's been fixed with v4.3.3.
