Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

The app crashes

What is the root cause of that problem?

connection here can be undefined then the app crashes

https://github.com/Expensify/react-native-onyx/blob/11b36cc6ea54b2e58806fde99ae16b9deb0cfced/lib/OnyxConnectionManager.ts#L230

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

Safely check for connection.id in addToEvictionBlockList and removeFromEvictionBlockList by changing connection.id to connection?.id or we can return early if connection is undefined or not call these function if connection is undefined

https://github.com/Expensify/react-native-onyx/blob/11b36cc6ea54b2e58806fde99ae16b9deb0cfced/lib/OnyxConnectionManager.ts#L230

[nkdengineer]

[nkdengineer]

@mountiny The App PR is here. I have some problems with native app building after RN upgrade.

[puneetlath]

I just tested the CP'd fix on web and it seems to be working. Going to go ahead and demote.

This issue has not been updated in over 15 days. @lschurr, @mountiny, @getusha, @nkdengineer eroding to Monthly issue.

P.S. Is everyone reading this sure this is really a near-term priority? Be brave: if you disagree, go ahead and close it out. If someone disagrees, they'll reopen it, and if they don't: one less thing to do!
