Can you guys help me in this issue?

Steps to reproduce

I've recently upgraded my react native version from 0.75 to 0.77 and react-native-svg version from 13.14.0 to 15.8.0

If I talk about the compatibility of react-native-svg verion 15.8.0+ is compatible with react.native 0.77 as per the readme file of this package.

Hey! 👋

The issue doesn't seem to contain a minimal reproduction.

Could you provide a snack or a link to a GitHub repository under your username that reproduces the problem?

Hi @sumit-do-it,

Do you try to remove node_modules and Gradle cache:
rm -rf node_modules
cd android && ./gradlew clean

Hi @kacperzolkiewski,
Thank you for your response on the thread!

I was able to identify the cause of the issue. In react-native-svg v15.8.0, for Paper renderer, it uses BaseViewManagerInterface, which is no longer accessible in React Native 0.77.

After upgrading to the latest version of react-native-svg, everything is working fine so far.

I’ll share an update if I encounter any further issues.

Thanks again!
