How to register C++ React Native module in Android
I have a C++ React Native module derived from facebook::xplat::module::CxxModule. It is working ok with iOS project but now I'm trying to figure out how to use it from Java. The only documentation I found is the comment in React Native codebase stating that:
NativeModules whose implementation is written in C++ must
not provide any Java code (so they can be reused on other platforms),
and instead should register themselves using
CxxModuleWrapper
My question is how to register C++ module in Java using CxxModuleWrapper

"Your question really is how to call C++ from javascript without calling java I suspect (if possible)?" - No, I can just use JNI and call any C++ library easily, the problem here is that I will need to do all data conversion and will have to implement all the callbacks and promises to communicate with JS side. This could be avoided using C++ module inherited fromfacebook::xplat::module::CxxModule. I have such a module and I can use it from Objective C but not from Java

Can you use some tool to generate bindings, like this

Please check this blog for detail: https://medium.com/@kudochien/how-to-write-a-react-native-cxxmodule-59073259f15d.
Snippet from the blog:
Export it from native
extern "C" HelloCxxModule* createHelloCxxModule() {
return new HelloCxxModule();
}
Register it in java
public final class HelloCxxPackage implements ReactPackage {
@Override
public List<NativeModule> createNativeModules(ReactApplicationContext reactContext) {
return Arrays.<NativeModule>asList(
// I have librnpackage-hellocxx.so the exported createHelloCxxModule() above.
CxxModuleWrapper.makeDso("rnpackage-hellocxx", "createHelloCxxModule")
);
}
@Override
public List<ViewManager> createViewManagers(ReactApplicationContext reactContext) {
return Collections.emptyList();
}
}
