Description

The updateViewControllerIfNeeded call introduced by #2230 forces the view controller to rebuild the subviews with the recent config.
When the screen is being unmounted it replaces the subviews with nil values as the reactSubviews are removed from the config one by one. Snapshots made earlier get discarded in the process.

This PR adds a condition that prevents updating the view controller when the screen is being changed + stops unnecessary snapshots when the screen is not changed.

Changes

  • updated Test556.tsx repro
  • added isGoingToBeRemoved property to RNSScreenView
  • making snapshots / updating the view controller conditionally

Test code and steps to reproduce

  • Use Test556.tsx repro

Checklist

  • Included code example that can be used to test this change
  • Ensured that CI passes

Hey, I need you to confirm that this PR does not introduce regression on #2230.
You can test specifically on @tboba's reproduction: #2230 (comment)

If we don't have a regression I need you to explain what other change fixed the issue mentioned in #2230. Otherwise I'm a bit reluctant, cause it might be working only by accident.

@kkafar Ok, I see. Thanks to @tboba's reproduction I was able to test it and it does in fact introduce regression. I'm going to keep working on it

Few remarks. The logic looks good, I would only want you to change the naming.

ios/RNSScreen.h Outdated
@property (nonatomic) react::LayoutMetrics newLayoutMetrics;
@property (weak, nonatomic) RNSScreenStackHeaderConfig *config;
@property (nonatomic, readonly) BOOL hasHeaderConfig;
@property (nonatomic) BOOL isGoingToBeRemoved;
