There is now only one instance of mbgl::OfflineFileSource, created when the shared MGLOfflineStorage object is initialized. Also create and use the shared MGLOfflineStorage object when initializing an MGLMapView object. The unified cache file is located in a subdirectory of Application Support, where the SDK has control over the file’s lifetime. The subdirectory is already named after the host application’s bundle identifier, ensuring that each Mapbox-powered application has an independent tile limit. If there’s an ambient cache in a subdirectory of Caches, delete it. If there’s an offline cache in a subdirectory of Documents on iOS or Caches on OS X, move it to the unified cache location in a subdirectory of Application Support. Fixes the iOS/OS X side of #4338.
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.
