Issue
New Relic React Native Agent throws error Maximum call stack size exceeded
after 30 minutes of app inactivity
Steps to reproduce:
- Instrument app with Raygun Native Agent github.com/MindscapeHQ/raygun4reactnative and enable RUM
- Run the app
- Put the app in background state
- Wait for at least 30 minutes
- Foreground the app
Expected: No errors
Actual: Error Maximum call stack size exceeded

Investigation
Hypothesis
Based on the examination of the source code it was determined that RUM will try to rotate user session each time app goes into foreground:
Which in turn will call transmitRealUserMonitoringEvent which will try to rotate session again if last event was recorded over 30 minutes ago which will go into transmitRealUserMonitoringEvent again and eventually result in infinite recursive call
Following the code:
On foreground - callrotateRUMSession

Call transmitRealUserMonitoringEvent

Call rotateRUMSession
again

Hi Alex,
Thank you for reporting this issue. The React Native SDK does appear to have a recursive call, continuously calling the rotateRUMSession method. We will investigate further and look to put out a fix as soon as we can. We will update this thread when we have more details to share.
Thank you again,
Mitchell

Hi Alex,
We have released a fix for the runaway recursive method within RUM. Please try updating to v1.1.1 of the Raygun4ReactNative SDK and let us know if you experience any more issues.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/raygun4reactnative/v/1.1.1
Thank you again for reporting this issue.
Regards,
Mitchell.
