iOS-v6.0.0
Release v6.0.0 updates the Mapbox Maps SDK for [iOS/Android] to use a pre-built GL Native binary rather than building from source as a submodule dependency. GL Native is changing some of its development workflows to build some Mapbox platform-specific features internally, similar to Chrome/Chromium development. Please refer to the README.md and/or DEVELOPING.md for guidance.
This major release does not include any breaking changes to public APIs. We are treating this release as a SEMVER major change because our installation instructions have changed.
License update for Mapbox builds of GL Native
Starting today, new binary releases of GL Native are licensed under the Mapbox Terms of Service. The Mapbox Maps SDKs repos will continue to be public and licensed under BSD-2.If you have any questions about how this change may impact your use of the Maps SDK, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Mapbox Support to connect with the Mapbox mobile team.
Distribution Updates
Standard installation methods still apply – we will continue to support SDK installation via CocoaPods, Carthage, and manual integration. However, you are now required to authenticate installation with a new access token. For more information about this new process, view our installation guide.
