Updated default styles from v8 to v9. Deprecated the MGLMapView class methods in favor of new methods that take a version parameter. Deprecated Emerald outright in favor of Outdoors. Replaced usage of the unversioned MGLStyle methods with the corresponding versioned methods and MGLStyleCurrentVersion to ensure consistency.
Expanded MGLStyle unit tests to also assert that MGLStyle has the right number of style URL methods and that they’re all public. Linked the OS X SDK unit test bundle to libmbgl-core.a. Removed an unnecessary dependency on osxapp.
Replaced Emerald with Outdoors in iosapp and osxapp.
Fixes the iOS and OS X side of #4577 and #4702.
Cherry-picked from 2a4eeadb29.
Mapbox GL Native
A library for embedding interactive, customizable vector maps into native applications on multiple platforms. It takes stylesheets that conform to the Mapbox GL Style Specification, applies them to vector tiles that conform to the Mapbox Vector Tile Specification, and renders them using OpenGL. Mapbox GL JS is the WebGL-based counterpart, designed for use on the Web.
The Mapbox GL ecosystem
This repository hosts the cross-platform Mapbox GL Native library, plus convenient SDKs for several platforms. The cross-platform library comes with a GLFW-based demo application for Ubuntu Linux and OS X. The SDKs target the usual languages on their respective platforms:
| SDK | Languages | Build status |
|---|---|---|
| Mapbox GL Native | C++14 | |
| Mapbox Android SDK | Java | |
| Mapbox iOS SDK | Objective-C or Swift | |
| Mapbox OS X SDK | Objective-C or Swift | |
| node-mapbox-gl-native | Node.js |
Additional Mapbox GL Native–based libraries are developed outside of this repository:
- React Native Mapbox GL for React Native applications on iOS and Android
- QMapboxGL for Qt-based applications
- Telerik’s Mapbox plugin for Apache Cordova Hybrid applications
- Telerik’s Mapbox plugin for NativeScript Hybrid applications
- Xamarin's Mapbox component for Xamarin Hybrid applications
If your platform or hybrid application framework isn’t listed here, consider embedding Mapbox GL JS using the standard Web capabilities on your platform.
