Clarified and copyedited the descriptions of errors that are raised when attempting to remove a source from a style. Worded the changelog entry more generically because the same method in Swift throws an error instead of returning. A mismatch would occur if the identifier is used by a different source than the one being removed. An application could cause this error to occur by keeping a reference to an MGLSource after changing the style URL of an MGLMapView. Another way would be to remove a source from the style, add another source to the style with the same identifier, then attempt to re-remove the original source from the style.
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 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 macOS. The SDKs target the usual languages on their respective platforms:
| SDK | Languages | Build status |
|---|---|---|
| Mapbox GL Native | C++14 |   |
| Mapbox Maps SDK for Android | Java | |
| Mapbox Maps SDK for iOS | Objective-C or Swift | |
| Mapbox Maps SDK for macOS | Objective-C, Swift, or AppleScript | |
| node-mapbox-gl-native | Node.js | |
| Mapbox Maps SDK for Qt | C++03 | |
Additional Mapbox GL Native–based libraries for hybrid applications are developed outside of this repository:
| Toolkit | Android | iOS | Developer |
|---|---|---|---|
| React Native (npm) | ✅ | ✅ | Mapbox |
| NativeScript (npm) | ✅ | ✅ | Telerik |
If your platform or hybrid application framework isn’t listed here, consider embedding Mapbox GL JS using the standard Web capabilities on your platform.
