…rgets (react#57861) Summary: Pull Request resolved: react#57861 React Native's public C++ headers are gaining guards from `react/cxxstableapi`, which turn a direct include of a fine-grained header into an error for consumers that opt into the strict API by defining `RN_STRICT_API`. React Native's own sources keep including those headers directly, so they are exempted via `RN_BUILDING`. Unlike CocoaPods, these three build systems each have a single chokepoint: - CMake: one `add_compile_definitions(RN_BUILDING)` in the ReactAndroid JNI project, a directory property inherited by every `add_react_common_subdir` below it. It is declared *after* the third-party NDK subdirectories so glog/boost/folly/fmt never see it, and this project never compiles app or third-party module code. - SwiftPM: one `.define` in the shared `Target.reactNativeTarget` factory that every React Native target is created through. `cxxSettings` are per-target and are not inherited by packages that depend on React. - Buck: a `_set_rn_building_flag` helper called from the four macros React Native's own targets use. It is `preprocessor_flags`, deliberately not `exported_preprocessor_flags`, so dependents are not exempted either. This change is inert on its own: nothing behaves differently unless a consumer defines `RN_STRICT_API`. Changelog: [Internal] Differential Revision: D115051088

Summary:
React Native's public C++ headers are gaining guards from
react/cxxstableapi, whichturn a direct include of a fine-grained header into an error for consumers that opt into
the strict API by defining
RN_STRICT_API. React Native's own sources keep includingthose headers directly, so they are exempted via
RN_BUILDING.Unlike CocoaPods, these three build systems each have a single chokepoint:
add_compile_definitions(RN_BUILDING)in the ReactAndroid JNI project,a directory property inherited by every
add_react_common_subdirbelow it. It isdeclared after the third-party NDK subdirectories so glog/boost/folly/fmt never see
it, and this project never compiles app or third-party module code.
.definein the sharedTarget.reactNativeTargetfactory that everyReact Native target is created through.
cxxSettingsare per-target and are notinherited by packages that depend on React.
_set_rn_building_flaghelper called from the four macros React Native's owntargets use. It is
preprocessor_flags, deliberatelynot
exported_preprocessor_flags, so dependents are not exempted either.This change is inert on its own: nothing behaves differently unless a consumer defines
