Description

After upgrading from 0.57.8 to 0.58.1 started to get this error in Xcode when compiling to a simulator:

Reproducible Demo

Just try to compile the project to a simulator.

Can you run react-native info and edit your issue to include these results under the Environment section?

If you believe this information is irrelevant to the reported issue, you may write [skip envinfo] under Environment to let us know.

Adding JavaScriptCore.framework to the linked libraries solved the issue. This probably should be added to the release notes.

[oferRounds]

Great, did it also for me. But now I’m getting the build error (on iOS):
error: {project_path}/node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/privatedata/PrivateDataBase.h: No such file or directory

Any idea?

Try to clean build folder and rebuild

[oferRounds]

Thank you, that did the trick for me!

@tapz

Can you tell how add JavaScriptCore.framework to the linked libraries ?!

Update:

[kelset]

👋 folks - thanks for reporting!

Yes it seems that we should add this to the changelog 👍 Maybe right below the highlights section? https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-releases/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#0580

[mikehardy]

@retyui highly recommend visiting this project which exposes the exact changes between react-native versions in the form of easy-to-read diffs that you could even (likely) automatically apply if you wanted: https://github.com/pvinis/rn-diff-purge

Adding JavaScriptCore.framework to the linked libraries solved the issue. This probably should be added to the release notes.

I was getting same error after updating ReactNative version, adding JavaScriptCore.framework did the trick.

[fungilation]

@kelset yes please, close to the highlights to not miss it

[hramos]

Thanks for looking into this. I'll close it given a solution has been found (projects need to add JavaScriptCore.framework during the upgrade).

[SAnegondhi]

Guess what. This is not resolved. I added javascriptCore.framework and it still fails with the same error.
react-native: 0.58.3

@IndeDude I also struggled with this problem for a while and had to clean the build folder using Xcode specifically. See my note here: #23166 (comment)

Good luck!

[jiawenbin2013]

thank you very much, that also resolve my question;

[jonathangreco]

The answer form @tapz works, but if you wanna use the Release Scheme, don't forget to also add the JavaScriptCore.framework in you Tests Target too.

[chengdh]

this answer from @tapz works, thanks a lot

[SAnegondhi]

Thank you. I had to use a fresh build too and that was painful because I have too many native libraries to hand link for both IoS and Android. Cheers!

@tapz solution worked except I had to also repeat it for my test project.

This is absoluetly actual solve (y)

[drwasho]

Awesome this worked!

thanks @tapz, adding JavaScriptCore.framework to the linked libraries solved the issue for me
