Description

I run "RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED=1 bundle exec pod install" and success install pods. After that, I try to make a build, but I get an error
"/Users/{user}/IdeaProjects/{project}/ios/Pods/Headers/Public/glog/glog/logging.h:512:1 Import of module 'glog.glog.log_severity' appears within namespace 'google'"

I can confirm this issue.
Seems like this is causing it a4a0655#diff-03375f42ecf9939e747c9ea89e3fe3357c73e942778c32c957f84d143f4293f5R142

[kelset]

Thanks for surfacing!
yeah it seems that it might be caused by this change in that commit by @louiszawadzki (looks like there was some specific reason #38121 (comment) )

  pod 'glog', :podspec => "#{prefix}/third-party-podspecs/glog.podspec", :modular_headers => true

I wonder why it doesn't happen with RNTester iOS 🤔 that's what we test the new arch things against.

@radko93 / @endyinthesun can either of you repro with a vanilla/react-native init'd project?

[radko93]

This actually only happened when archiving the build, not running locally. I'm not using new arch.

@kelset I've tried to create a new app with "npx react-native init awesome_proj" and I've got the same result

[kelset]

we've been looking into this and it looks like it's something specific to Xcode 14.2 - on latest Xcode 14.3.1 everything is building fine.

The problem now is that some CIs like GitHub Actions do still default to Xcode 14.2 in their images 😓

Current workarounds:

• upgrade your setup / CI to Xcode 14.3.1 (for example, for GitHub Actions macos-13 images with Xcode 14.3.1 are available)
• stay on 0.72.1

We'll try to figure out a solution quickly, most likely we'll revert the commit and publish 0.72.3.

We didn't catch this because CircleCI's CI is already on Xcode 14.3

[endyinthesun]

@kelset thanks so much for your reply!

[fortmarek]

I'm getting this issue while build the app, I'm using Xcode 14.3.1, RN version 0.72.2, M1 Mac

This is most likely unrelated to the bug raised in this issue that's specific to Xcode 14.2. Please, create a new issue with proper reproduction steps 🙏

[louiszawadzki]

Hi 👋
It looks like my first commit to React Native was also my first regression 😅

Totally fine by me to revert my change in the next version until we come up with a better solution, I believe there are way more people still using XCode 14.2 than people using the new architecture in projects with Swift modules.

[kelset]

thanks @louiszawadzki 👍

I'm testing locally that reverting the commit actually addresses the problem, after which I'll do 0.72.3 with the revert and we can look into how to address this more properly next week (once Riccardo is back).

as a sidenote, just so that I stop losing track of this link, Apple's policy is that you need to use Xcode 14.1 or higher atm.

[kelset]

Hey folks 👋

Update: I was able to repro locally that in the 0.72-stable branch even RNTester (on JSC+new arch) was failing to build with this problem:

And I was also able to verify that it was fixed by reverting the commit:

So I went ahead and rolled out a new patch, 0.72.3, with just the revert 👍

I've also created a separate discussion to track how to better avoid having this type of regressions go unnoticed: react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals#687

and left a comment on the PR #38121 so that once Riccardo is back next week he has full info on the situation and we can figure out if there's a way to reapply it in a way that it can work with versions lower than 14.3.

[kelset]

@endyinthesun can you just let me know if with 0.72.3 the problem is solved for you too and we can close this?

[endyinthesun]

@kelset yes, it works, thanks =)

@kelset I am using react-native@0.72.4 and getting this error from GitHub action

import of module 'glog.glog.log_severity' appears within namespace 'google'

#include "glog/log_severity.h"

If anyone comes here because of integrating react-native-google-signin prebuild in Expo , I did it by do NOT prebuild, and just go ahead to run eas build -p ios --profile development , I am using EXPO SDK 50, therefore it picks up proper XCode and do the build without a problem!
