IOS Build failed in Xcode 16

[Bayramito]

❗ Update from the maintainers: For building with Xcode 16 you need to

• Use @sentry/react-native version 5.31.0 or newer.
• Set APPLICATION_EXTENSION_API_ONLY=YES for Sentry like so:

post_install do |installer|
  react_native_post_install(
    installer,
    config[:reactNativePath],
    :mac_catalyst_enabled => false,
  )

  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
      if target.name == 'Sentry'
        config.build_settings['APPLICATION_EXTENSION_API_ONLY'] = 'YES'
      else
        # configuration for other targets
      end
    end
  end
end

We're investigating how we can make the second step unnecessary (related: #3908).

Description

I just updated my mac to MACOS 15. And also updated Sentry version to latest which is 5.32 but i started to get this build error in Xcode.

Previously i was using xcode 15 and macOS Sonoma and 5.19 of Sentry.

My setup
"@sentry/react-native": "^5.32.0",
"react-native": "0.72.14",
XCode: Version 16.0 (16A242d)

Same here using expo and development client.

[tommynordli]

Fixed it by updating react-native to 0.75 (React Native 0.75 is now available with Expo SDK 51) and sentry to 5.32

Thanks but that's not a solution :) Especially if your project scale is a bit bigger than regular

[teekirol]

I was able to resolve this by upgrading to @sentry/react-native 5.32.0. I am still using React Native 0.73 and Expo 50.

[montasaurus]

Make sure you explicitly specify the version, npm is currently showing an older version as the latest

npm i @sentry/react-native@5.32.0

[haileyok]

Upgrading to 5.32.0 does indeed allow us to build the app, however we're seeing a crash in production builds:

-[__NSArrayM length]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x303720720

This is coming from https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-react-native/blob/main/ios/RNSentry.mm#L455, where sometimes captureEnvelope is being called with an array rather than a string. Adding a small hack here (bluesky-social/social-app#5400) prevents the crash, though I haven't been able to spend any time to investigate where it is being called with an array rather than string. (It looks like the old behavior - which changed in f15994e - did call it with an array).

I'll open a separate issue with this as well once I verify this isn't a bizarre cache issue.

I upgrade to versions 5.24.0, 5.24.3 and 5.32 with react native 0.74.5 but the problem wasn't fixed.
Same issue in sentry-cocoa repo getsentry/sentry-cocoa#4339

Use of undeclared identifier 'SentryLog'

Only upgrading did not fixed on me either, you also need to apply this in your Podfile.

if target.name != "Sentry"           
   config.build_settings['APPLICATION_EXTENSION_API_ONLY'] = 'NO' 
end
