React Highcharts 'forExport' of undefined

Question

I am getting this error on loading the chart : TypeError: Cannot read property 'forExport' of undefined a.Chart.destroy I'm dynamically rendering the data by parsing a JSON object. Is this a bug? Im stuck. Can someone help me fix this error?

You'll need to post your code or else no one will be able to see what the problem might be. — Chris B., Aug 16 '20 at 17:47
Could you reproduce your case on some online editor which I could work on? — Sebastian Wędzel, Aug 17 '20 at 07:50
Looks like my formatter function for x-axis was creating this issue. Used toString() method, instead of directly changing (this.value). — Dark Frost, Aug 19 '20 at 08:19

This is seen when you call on Highchart object when it is already been destroyed or Highchart object is not present. Please refer this https://github.com/highcharts/highcharts/issues/9232

function destroyChart() {
  if(this.highchart && this.highchart.destroy){
   this.highchart.destroy()
  }
}

Fixed it, some other function was creating this issue. – Dark Frost Aug 19 '20 at 08:21

This entry is historic but I have just found the same issue with highcharts. A temporary fix is to set StrictMode off. On my app it then works as it should. I think this must be a bug and I have posted another stackoverflow question.
