An error occurred while changing from a class component to a function component. I'm not good at english i want cascading select option A compilation error occurs when running I'm still a beginner, so I don't know what's wrong How can I solve it I want a function component, not a class component


Solution

  • Since you are converting to a functional component, there's no need to use this.state.

    The useState hook returns a tuple where the first element is the state and the 2nd one is the setter for that state.

    So here in your case you can use like this:

    const [ data, setData ] = useState('num');
    

    Now call the setData from the onChange callback.

    <select onChange = {({ target: { value } }) => {setData(value);}}>
    

    This will update the data state and will rerender the component.
