RN-328 Android Crash after update to version 7x

[oferRounds]

Adding to the above, that the crash appears to happen only on dev mode, on Android

[antonis]

Thank you for reporting. We will investigate this and iterate back 🙏

[antonis]

Looping back on this I wasn't able to reproduce on fresh RN projects (tried 0.76.9 and the latest 0.81.1)

npx @react-native-community/cli@latest init TestRN0769 --version 0.76.9
npx @react-native-community/cli@latest init TestRN0811

after setting up the Sentry SDK with the default wizard configuration.

npx @sentry/wizard@latest -i reactNative

I believe that this might be an initialisation timing issue with the React Native Navigation by Wix. Could you temporarily comment out the reactNativeNavigationIntegration and check if the issue persists?

If this solved the dev mode issue could you provide more details on how you initialise your app to help us reproduce the issue?

[IsaacIsrael]

Hey @antonis thanks for the feedback

I commented the reactNativeNavigationIntegration and did not work :(

The only thing that made to run without crashing it was make autoInitializeNativeSdk as false fro Aandroid and local

Sentry.init({
			tracesSampleRate: 0.1,
			profilesSampleRate: 0.1,
			enableAppStartTracking: true,
			enableNativeFramesTracking: true,
			enableStallTracking: true,
			enableUserInteractionTracing: true,
			enableAutoSessionTracking: true,
			autoInitializeNativeSdk: !EnvironmentConsts.isLocal || DeviceConstant.isIOS,
			enableLogs: true,
			integrations: [Sentry.reactNativeNavigationIntegration({ navigation: Navigation })],
			beforeSend: (event: ErrorEvent, _hint: EventHint) => {
				if (__DEV__) {
					return null
				}

				let retVal: ErrorEvent | null = null

				const shouldAlwaysSend = this.companyId === HIBOB_COMPANY_ID

				if (shouldAlwaysSend) {
					retVal = event
				} else {
					retVal = Math.random() > 0.9 ? event : null
				}

				return retVal
			}
		})

To initializate we do something like this

export default class App {
	
	constructor() {
		 ...
		this.initSentry()
		Navigation.events().registerAppLaunchedListener(() => {
			...
		})
	}

	private initSentry() {
        Sentry.init()
	}

}

new App()
