MDBReact 5.0 breaking code - causing Invalid hook error

Can you show me that error?

Error Decoder In the minified production build of React, we avoid sending down full error messages in order to reduce the number of bytes sent over the wire.

We highly recommend using the development build locally when debugging your app since it tracks additional debug info and provides helpful warnings about potential problems in your apps, but if you encounter an exception while using the production build, this page will reassemble the original text of the error.

The full text of the error you just encountered is:

Invalid hook call. Hooks can only be called inside of the body of a function component. This could happen for one of the following reasons: 1. You might have mismatching versions of React and the renderer (such as React DOM) 2. You might be breaking the Rules of Hooks 3. You might have more than one copy of React in the same app See https://reactjs.org/link/invalid-hook-call for tips about how to debug and fix this problem.

I'm hoping that MDBReact components were not built using hooks useState and useEffect. If that's the case then I can't use them in my React Classes :(

what version of React do you use?

cristian325@gmail.com commented 4 years ago

16.12.0---------------------------

we upgraded our package to 5.0.0+ version because we upgrade the React version in our package to 17 and we removed legacy code about that.

So upgrading to react 17 should work?

probably, you have to test it.
