Vincent Riemer e532f861ec Fix ghost leave/out events firing due to view recycling
Summary:
Changelog: [iOS][Internal] - Fix ghost pointer leave/out events firing due to view recycling on iOS

While implementing the properties on the PointerEvent object on iOS I noticed that in certain specific scenarios I was seeing pointerLeave events being fired seemingly without corresponding pointerEvent events and even more strangely, when the pointer wasn't even close to the view in question.

After a lot of research I discovered that this was caused by an incompatibility between my strategy of keeping track/identifying views which are being hovered and RN's handling of creating/deleting views on iOS. See on iOS RN has the `RCTComponentViewRegistry` class which manages the creation & deletion of UIViews and adds an optimization of recycling views instead of outright deleting them.

This is causing issues with my tracking of which views are hovered because I compare the view's object references which, while accurate towards confirming equality of an underlying UIView — isn't accurate in confirming the equality of views from react's perspective.

This diff addresses this issue by adding a simple wrapper class that can be used around the UIViews which stores the view's react ID at initialization time ensuring it doesn't get updated even if the underlying view's react id is. As an additional precaution the wrapper class will also not return the view it's wrapping if their react tags do not match.

React Native brings React's declarative UI framework to iOS and Android. With React Native, you use native UI controls and have full access to the native platform.

  • Declarative. React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Declarative views make your code more predictable and easier to debug.
  • Component-Based. Build encapsulated components that manage their state, then compose them to make complex UIs.
  • Developer Velocity. See local changes in seconds. Changes to JavaScript code can be live reloaded without rebuilding the native app.
  • Portability. Reuse code across iOS, Android, and other platforms.

React Native is developed and supported by many companies and individual core contributors. Find out more in our ecosystem overview.

📋 Requirements

React Native apps may target iOS 12.4 and Android 5.0 (API 21) or newer. You may use Windows, macOS, or Linux as your development operating system, though building and running iOS apps is limited to macOS. Tools like Expo can be used to work around this.

🎉 Building your first React Native app

Follow the Getting Started guide. The recommended way to install React Native depends on your project. Here you can find short guides for the most common scenarios:

📖 Documentation

The full documentation for React Native can be found on our website.

The React Native documentation discusses components, APIs, and topics that are specific to React Native. For further documentation on the React API that is shared between React Native and React DOM, refer to the React documentation.

The source for the React Native documentation and website is hosted on a separate repo, @facebook/react-native-website.

🚀 Upgrading

Upgrading to new versions of React Native may give you access to more APIs, views, developer tools, and other goodies. See the Upgrading Guide for instructions.

React Native releases are discussed in this discussion repo.
