Leo Natan 3ac3749ac3 Fix for Unicode decoding issue when using incremental networking.
Summary:
This is **a critical issue**.

The issue arises when incremental networking is enabled from JS by setting `onprogress` or `onload` on an `XMLHttpRequest` object.

The results:

Unicode characters get corrupted seemingly in random. The issue is from the way Unicode character parsing is handled in `RCTNetworking.mm`. When incremental networking is enabled, each chunk of data is decoded and passed to JS:

```objective-c
incrementalDataBlock = ^(NSData *data, int64_t progress, int64_t total) {
NSString *responseString = [RCTNetworking decodeTextData:data fromResponse:task.response];
if (!responseString) {
  RCTLogWarn(@"Received data was not a string, or was not a recognised encoding.");
  return;
}
NSArray<id> *responseJSON = @[task.requestID, responseString, @(prog

UIExplorer

The UIExplorer is a sample app that showcases React Native views and modules.

Running this app

Before running the app, make sure you ran:

git clone https://github.com/facebook/react-native.git
cd react-native
npm install

Running on iOS

Mac OS and Xcode are required.

  • Open Examples/UIExplorer/UIExplorer.xcodeproj in Xcode
  • Hit the Run button

See Running on device if you want to use a physical device.

Running on Android

You'll need to have all the prerequisites (SDK, NDK) for Building React Native installed.

Start an Android emulator (Genymotion is recommended).

cd react-native
./gradlew :Examples:UIExplorer:android:app:installDebug
./packager/packager.sh

Note: Building for the first time can take a while.

Open the UIExplorer app in your emulator.

See Running on Device in case you want to use a physical device.

Running with Buck

Follow the same setup as running with gradle.

Install Buck from here.

Run the following commands from the react-native folder:

./gradlew :ReactAndroid:packageReactNdkLibsForBuck
buck fetch uiexplorer
buck install -r uiexplorer
./packager/packager.sh

Note: The native libs are still built using gradle. Full build with buck is coming soon(tm).

Built from source

Building the app on both iOS and Android means building the React Native framework from source. This way you're running the latest native and JS code the way you see it in your clone of the github repo.

This is different from apps created using react-native init which have a dependency on a specific version of React Native JS and native code, declared in a package.json file (and build.gradle for Android apps).
