I am using Flash Message in React Native. A memory leak error is thrown when I navigate to another screen without waiting for the message to disappear.
showMessage({
message: "Hello World",
duration: 2000,
description: "This is our second message",
type: "success",
});
Warning: Can't perform a React state update on an unmounted component. This is a no-op, but it indicates a memory leak in your application. To fix, cancel all subscriptions and asynchronous tasks in %s.%s, the componentWillUnmount method,
You don't need to wait for flash message to disappear. You can hide the message programmatically before navigating to a new screen.
// import hideMessage method from the library
import { hideMessage } from "react-native-flash-message";
// a function which navigates to another screen
foo = () => {
// assuming you are using react navigation
// in a class based component
const { navigation } = this.props;
// call hideMessage before you navigate
hideMessage();
navigation.navigate('ScreenName');
}
