Compilation Error on iOS with Fabric and `useFrameworks: 'static'`

[David Jebing]

Description

I get the following compilation error in my expo project

Compiling react-native-keyboard-controller Pods/react-native-keyboard-controller » KeyboardControllerView.mm

❌  (/Users/dj/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/rnkcrepro-fpszcknsvsireefsykksjmdcqkiw/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/React-Fabric/React_Fabric.framework/Headers/react/renderer/core/PropsParserContext.h:13:10)

     |          ^ 'react/utils/ContextContainer.h' file not found

The issue is caused by setting useFrameworks in app.json

"expo-build-properties",
{
  "ios": {
+ 	"useFrameworks": "static",
    "newArchEnabled": true
  },

Hey @davidjbng

Can you check if #308 fixes the problem?

[David Jebing]

Yes, it's fixed by applying the changes from #308. Thank you!

[Kirill Zyusko]

Awesome @davidjbng

The reason why I can not merge this PR is because I'm awaiting a new release from RN (0.72.x) which should include a fix that will allow to use new changes. Hopefully it'll be released soon and then I can test my changes, merge this branch and publish a new release 😎
