Readout of deviceId crashes runtime

[cjohn001]

Hello together,
I have the following code snipped which I used to read out the deviceId. The last line now crashes the runtime. If someone know of a workaround, would be great to have it mentioned here. Thanks!

"@nativescript/ios":
"version": "8.1.0-rc.1",

const systemInfo = new interop.Reference();
uname(systemInfo);
deviceId = NSString.stringWithUTF8String(systemInfo.value.machine).toString();

Ok, this here works as a workaround:

const _SYS_NAMELEN = 256;
const buffer = interop.alloc(5 * _SYS_NAMELEN);
uname(buffer);
deviceId = NSString.stringWithUTF8String(buffer.add(_SYS_NAMELEN * 4)).toString();
