Android - Exception in HostObject::get(propName:ReactNativeBlobUtil) about react-native-blob-util HOT 5 CLOSED

Crash is most likely happening from here or its surroundings, as this is the only place the reported method is called on app startup:

https://github.com/RonRadtke/react-native-blob-util/blob/master/android/src/main/java/com/ReactNativeBlobUtil/ReactNativeBlobUtilFS.java#L253

From the stack trace, it is impossible to tell which getAbsolutePath failed.

Which react-native version are you using?
Thank you for the information.
Then we probably have to wrap this part of the code too, so it won't fail.

But the questions is, how can that fail. The dictionaries we try to access should exist by default for every app on andorid or ios.

RN 0.62.2

I think the fail may be very rare, and it can be blamed on Android itself. Perhaps the crash itself is better than falling back to a default value, but at least a better message should be provided.

Looks like this is still happening and over time more consistently:

Last one was from android 11 on a samsung Note 10+

from react-native-blob-util.

I wrapped both now in methods. This should prevent the app from crashing.
But this also means it could be that you get an empty string instead of a filepath.
