freerasp-react-native could not determine the react-native version used

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch freerasp-react-native@3.3.1 for the project I'm working on.

After installing this package, I got this problem:

Could not determine the dependencies of task ':freerasp-react-native:compileDebugAidl'.

Could not resolve all task dependencies for configuration ':freerasp-react-native:debugCompileClasspath'.
Could not find com.facebook.react:react-native:.
Required by:
project :freerasp-react-native

Here is the diff that solved my problem:

Hi @mohcinenazrhan,

Thanks for opening the issue! We were aware that this occurs with older versions of react-native and always proposed the same fix as you did (to hardcode the version of react-native).

It seems like a general solution would be to use implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:+, but we will have to do some testing to see if we don't break the versions that are currently working.

This should be ready in the next release.

Cheers,
Tomas, Talsec dev
