@grabbou grabbou released this 04 Jan 13:02
v0.41.0
5db36da

This is 0.41.0 release, referred to as "January 2017" according to the new release schedule.

New features

Android: Nodes

This feature is currently experimental. You can turn it on by applying this in your ReactNativeHost subclass.

Nodes is an experimental, alternate version of UIImplementation for ReactNative on Android. It has two main advantages over the existing UIImplementation:

  • Support for overflow:visible on Android.
  • More efficient generation of view hierarchies.

The intention is to ultimately replace the existing UIImplementation on Android with Nodes (after all the issues are ironed out).

Feature development and bug-fixes related to Nodes are listed below in a separate section for better clarity.

Check the readme for more details.

Breaking changes

Android: Change ReactNativeHost getUseDeveloperSupport to public

f3c8158 - @jpshelley

This changes the visibility of getUseDeveloperSupport from protected to public. In order to upgrade, you should replace the following in your MainApplication.java:

protected boolean getUseDeveloperSupport() {

with

public boolean getUseDeveloperSupport() {

Android: ReactClippingViewGroup is moved to another package

57ebb98 - @astreet

Developers using ReactClippingViewGroup may need to update their imports from:

import com.facebook.react.views.view.ReactClippingViewGroupHelper;

to

import com.facebook.react.uimanager.ReactClippingViewGroupHelper;

v0.40.0
a9357cc

This is the first release with the new monthly cadence, so 0.40 is known as December 2016. The next version will be 0.41 - January 2017, and will be released at the end of the month.

Breaking Changes

iOS native headers moved

This change affects all native modules and application code on iOS that refer to react native .h files

After e1577df, Native code on iOS must refer to headers out of the react namespace. Previously the following would work:

#import "RCTUtils.h"

But now all headers have been moved:

#import <React/RCTUtils.h>

This means that all iOS native libraries need a major version bump for RN 0.40. We attempt to minimize changes of this magnitude, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused.

require('image!...') no longer supported

Support for require('image!…'), which has been deprecated for a long time, is now removed. If you are still loading images that way in your apps, make sure to check the documentation for alternatives.

getTransformModuleOptions is removed

If you were having custom rn-cli.config.js in your app and for some reason, using getTransformModuleOptions, make sure to check @davidaurelio commit ca58e0a for details on the changes.

Breaking changes

General

  • Default scrollview to flexShrink to allow views below it (c43a3f5) - @emilsjolander

  • Fix unconstraint sizing in main axis (0a9b6be) - @emilsjolander

    Most of your layouts will continue to function as before however some of them might not. Typically this is due to having a flex: 1 style where it is currently a no-op due to being measured with an undefined size but after this change it may collapse your component to take zero size due to the implicit flexBasis: 0 now being correctly treated. Removing the bad flex: 1 style or changing it to flexGrow: 1 should solve most if not all layout issues your see after this change.
