Sources don't contain styling - details like color or width. Use subclasses of `MGLStyleLayer` to give visual - representation to sources. + `MGLSource` is an abstract base class for map content sources. A map content + source supplies content to be shown on the map. A source is added to an + `MGLStyle` object along with an `MGLForegroundStyleLayer` object. The + foreground style layer defines the appearance of any content supplied by the + source. - You should use the concrete subclasses of `MGLSource` to create vector, - raster, GeoJSON, and other source types. + Each source defined by the style JSON file is represented at runtime by an + `MGLSource` object that you can use to refine the map’s content. You can also + add and remove sources dynamically using methods such as + `-[MGLStyle addSource:]` and `-[MGLStyle sourceWithIdentifier:]`. + + Do not create instances of this class directly, and do not create your own + subclasses of this class. Instead, create instances of `MGLRasterSource`, + `MGLShapeSource`, and `MGLVectorSource`. */ @interface MGLSource : NSObject |
