Due to a switch to a newer version of JSCore, the jsc-android dependency is now used by the
SDK. As this dependency is not (yet) available in the Jitsi Maven repository, an error like
this is reported when an application is ran that uses the SDK:
com.facebook.react.common.JavascriptException: Can't find variable: Symbol
This commit primarily improves the instructions on how to create a local Maven repository
that contains all required dependencies, including the JSCore dependency that was missing.
This intends to address the issue described in https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/issues/3399
Video elements may have problems scaling to cover pixel fractions,
so there could be a 1px black border line displaying in the
thumbnail. It's most visible in tile view. Flooring the sizing
calculations hides the border.
Filmstrip remote thumbnails display under certain conditions, as
defined in filmstrip/functions.web.js. Previously the raw
participant count was used, which included fake participants.
Using the selector getParticipantCount excludes fake participants,
causing YouTube thumbnails to remain hidden in a 1-on-1 call.
- Derive the showOverlay state. When the sidebar should be hidden,
the internal showOverlay state should remain true until the
animation hides it. When the sidebar should show, the showOverlay
state should become true immediately.
- Use PureComponent to prevent additional animation triggers
instead of explicitly checking changes to the "show" prop.
Based on react-native docs, looks like animations should be
started after mount. Updating animation states I'm not certain
on so I moved it to componentDidUpdate and tested with the
live streaming label to ensure the component still animated fine.
To kill componentWillMount, call destroyLocalTrack after mount.
Navigation to the blank page was synthetically forced and no
UI issues were noticed, possibly because destroyLocalTrack may
already be async so destruction may already have been occurring
after mount.
For the most part the changes are taking the "static propTypes" declaration off
of components and declaring them as Flow types. Sometimes to support flow some
method signatures had to be added. There are some exceptions in which more had
to be done to tame the beast:
- AbstractVideoTrack: put in additional truthy checks for videoTrack.
- Video: add truthy checks for the _videoElement ref.
- shouldRenderVideoTrack function: Some component could pass null for the
videoTrack argument and Flow wanted that called out explicitly.
- DisplayName: Add a truthy check for the input ref before acting on it.
- NumbersList: Move array checks inline for Flow to comprehend array methods
could be called. Add type checks in the Object.entries loop as the value is
assumed to be a mixed type by Flow.
- AbstractToolbarButton: add additional truthy check for passed in type.
