Having the same issue. Is there an update on where this might be fixed?

<Overlay/> same error ("react-native-elements": "^3.4.3",)

Warning: Overlay: Support for defaultProps will be removed from function components in a future major release. Use JavaScript default parameters instead.

This wonderful library looks like the maintainer has run out of steam recently. Maybe you could fork it with your fix? Then PR against the main repo so they can merge/comment on it, or if they never do your fixed fork becomes the latest.

[helloitsmix]

Have the same warning

[vaniapsk]

Same here, having the same issue with <Slider />

[antoniovuono]

Same problem here with <Dialog.Loading />

[Emauss]

Same issue in <CheckBox />
But with TextElement:

"Use JavaScript default parameters instead. %s TextElement"

Yeah, we are also having the warning with the component, the only thing I've seen as a workaround / temp fix for this has been people suppressing the warn but I don't think that is the correct approach. I think likely may require an underlying code change for the components in this library and waiting until that happens 😢

Same issue for here, any updates?

[Metecko]

same issue :(

[boiboif]

Same issue

[KarlaSaenz]

Same issue in
<CheckBox /> <ButtonGroup/>

[endp01]

Same issue (with Dialog.Button), running rneui 4.0.0-rc.7

ERROR Warning: Dialog.Button: Support for defaultProps will be removed from function components in a future major release. Use JavaScript default parameters instead.

issue probably here:

react-native-elements/packages/base/src/Dialog/Dialog.Button.tsx

Line 27 in 52056de

DialogButton.defaultProps = {

seems it stems from recent changes in react 18.13.1: facebook/react#29233

probably needs a fix in all components 🥵

I also have the same issue with version 3.4.3

Hello all, I have a workaround for this problem - not a solution! But works while we wait, by applying a patch to the rneui library you can eliminate the warning. I had a warning regarding defaultProps on the Slider component as some of you have had - however this workaround should work for any similar components.

If you are using yarn in your project its a relatively easy workaround, you can run
yarn patch @rneui/base

This will create & output a temporary directory where you can work on the file/files in question that are causing you trouble. For me this was converting the slider's default props to use parameters in the functions signature itself.

Once you have made your patch and removed the use of defaultProps, yarn will have output a command you need to run to reintroduce the patch to your package, it'll look something like:
yarn patch-commit -s {temp directory location}

Then remember to commit this patch to your version control and make sure a .gitignore isn't blocking the .yarn/patches folder.

If you're not using yarn, you can use https://www.npmjs.com/package/patch-package to do the same process.

Those of you with the Dialog issue, it looks like you'll want to look in the temp created folder at dist/Dialog/Dialog.Button.js at line 21 and convert the default props.

Not perfect I'm aware but it eliminates warnings and doesn't take too long to sort out. Hope this helps! 👍
