CADisplayLink holds a strong reference to its target, forming a cycle that must be broken with -[CADisplayLink invalidate] when the animation is complete. I don’t yet have enough faith that will-change and did-change notifications are always coming from mbgl in pairs, so this change limits CADisplayLink to when MGLMapView is in the view hierarchy. It also pauses the CADisplayLink when the view is hidden or the application is in the background. Finally, -[MGLMapView invalidate] has been renamed because that term tends not to mean “redraw” in Cocoa but is rather tied to timers. Fixes #3130. [ios] Also invalidate CADisplayLink on removal from window [ios] Also shut down CADisplayLink when view is hidden
Mapbox GL Native
A library for embedding interactive 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 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.
