I think the move here is to always initialize a new object for classes. The object pooling is a micro-optimization that doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. |

This micro-optimization never made sense and less so now that they're rare. This still initializes the class with a shared immutable object in the constructor - which is also what createClass() does. Then we override it during mount. This is done in case someone messes up the initialization of the super() constructor for example, which was more common in polyfills. This change means that if a ref is initialized during the constructor itself it wouldn't be lazily initialized but that's not user code that does it, it's React so that shouldn't happen. This makes string refs codemoddable as described in. #25334

Summary
For reactjs/rfcs@createlement-rfc/text/0000-create-element-changes.md#deprecate-string-refs-and-remove-production-mode-_owner-field
Enable
warnAboutStringRefsfor every release.I adjusted the warning logic to not also appear in other cases where we already warn/throw (e.g. function components cannot be given refs).
For the
string-refscodemodto work, we now have to lazily initialize
this.refsfor every function ref.Alternatively we could do
But this gets increasingly difficult since we now have to add an import and global initializer instead of only adjust the local ref.
Or we always eagerly initialize
this.refswhen constructiong class instances.Or we don't add any codemod: #25383
