[Master] - Cannot resolv ReactNativeHost & ReactApplication

[vongohren]

Description

I'm waiting for a stable release with a PR that currently went into master: #12089
So Im currently using master.
But there is an issue with android all of the sudden, it wont resolve these two classes in a completly newly initiated project:

import com.facebook.react.ReactApplication;
import com.facebook.react.ReactNativeHost;

So Im just trying to figure out what breaking changes is coming. Because when I try to fix up on it, my app won't start with

E/ReactNative: Got JS Exception: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: __fbBatchedBridge

So what needs to be changed?

Reproduction

Initiate a new project, change the version to: git@github.com:facebook/react-native.git
Resync the android project

Additional Information

• React Native version: Master
• Platform: Android
• Operating System: MacOS

@Snorlock I am having the same issue with these two classes which seem to have disappeared.
I was then trying the "Integrating in an existing app" tutorial for the Android version and it compiles fine but I can't get it to run because I get the same __fbBatchedBridge error.
I have read that it mainly means that your react native packager isn't reachable.

It looks like I could specify the server to use over WiFi but I can't get to debug menu since my activity won't run.

Thats strange, are you running against master aswell @quentinfasquel?

[quentinfasquel]

Yup.

[vongohren]

I can supplement with this, and for some reason the reactnative build on android studio is 0.20 and the classes are gone. They should be in root react folder

Somone mentioned this on another PR/issue: #12089 (comment)

Might there be anything to it?

[quentinfasquel]

I agree there is an issue and I don't see how that is related, there are 2 Java classes not found and the react version not pointing to the proper version. There must have been some mix-up between branches or the master branch isn't up-to-date for Android, or there is an obvious mistake we are both doing and can't figure out.

I believe the CocoaPods fix will be part of the next release and Android will be working as well, however for the moment I can't run both Android and iOS with the branch facebook/react-native#master.

This answer may help.

@yimingtang im struggeling a bit, because this is not very up to date: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/master/ReactAndroid/DevExperience.md
The link is not working for example

But Iv done what the readme says on the cli library, but unfortunately im not in init face, i have to change on a app already made. https://github.com/Snorlock/react-native/tree/master/react-native-cli

So i did sinopsis and unpublished and published, and tried to point my react library to 1000.0.0, which the master branch is on. But it still doesnt work.

I think this might be some update information: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/android-building-from-source.html

react-native-push-notification lib is broken currently because of the exact same issue for those building RN from source.

[vongohren]

Yeah, my issue was solved with that guide above, if the lib is broken, then have a look at that guide or take it up with https://github.com/zo0r/react-native-push-notification

@Snorlock I figured how to compile ReactAndroid but somehow I don't have the debug menu and I am not sure why. It looks like it's mandatory to use android-ndk-r10e, is that right?
