Force JS null to be translated to ObjC nil
Summary: In D14571128, we made it so that when a JS object's property was `undefined`, we wouldn't insert that property into the corresponding NSDictionary. Here are two important observations about that diff: 1. ALL JS `null`s were now being converted to `NSNull`, and JS `undefined`s were now being converted to `nil`. 2. If a JS object's property was explicitly `null`, then we'd insert `NSNull` into the corresponding dictionary. Considering that when a property doesn't exist in a `NSDictionary`, property access returns `nil`, I've made it so that if a JS object's property is either `null` or `undefined`, then we simply do not insert it in the corresponding `NSDictionary`. Also, I've reverted #1 and made it so that `undefined` and `null` always map to the ObjC `nil`. This shouldn't unfix the problem that D14571128 was trying to fix. Here's my understanding of the problem that D14571128 was trying to fix (to make sure I'm not breaking something by this diff). This method was invoked from JS. ``` RCT_EXPORT_METHOD(logEvents:(NSDictionary *)events) { RCTAssert(events, @"You should provide events for logger"); [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"FBReactPerfLoggerDidReceiveEventsNotification" object:nil userInfo:@{@"FBReactPerfLoggerUserInfoPerfEventsKey" : [events copy]}]; } ``` The above dispatch calls into this method, which appends `events` into `_pendingJSPerfEvents`. ``` - (void)reactPerfLoggerDidReceiveEvents:(NSNotification *)notification { NSDictionary *events = notification.userInfo[@"FBReactPerfLoggerUserInfoPerfEventsKey"]; if (events) { dispatch_async(_eventQueue, ^{ if (self->_sessionData.perfLoggerFlagId != nil) { if ([self processJSPerfEvents:events]) { [self reportMetricsIfFinished]; } } else { [self->_pendingJSPerfEvents addObject:events]; } }); } } ``` Then, in `_processJSPerfEvents`, we do the following (link: https://fburl.com/tr4wr2a7): ``` NSNumber *actionId = events[@"actionId"]; if (actionId) { self->_sessionData.actionId = actionId; } ``` So, if `undefined` or `null` was passed in as the `actionId` property of the `events` JS object in `FBReactPerformanceLogger logEvents:`, then we'd default the `NSDictionary` to have `NSNull` in the corresponding property. This is bad because we had this line in FBReactWildePerfLogger (link: https://fburl.com/2nsywl2n): `actionId ? [actionId shortValue] : PerfLoggerActions.SUCCESS`. Essentially, this is the same problem that my diff is trying to fix. Reviewed By: fkgozali Differential Revision: D14625287 fbshipit-source-id: c701d4b6172484cee62494256175e8b205b23c73
