Map Suite 10.0 New Features:

• Remove the merge module and move the required assemblies to specific package.
• Synchronize the Core APIs across all Map Suite product line.
• Allow to use Map Suite product without installer.
• Simplified the license process.

• Create a BareBone version package for Map Suite products to allow user to create app with minimum size.
• Create a Standard version package for Map Suite products to transfer user’s existing project to 10.0 easily.

ThinkGeo.MapSuite.iOS Namespace:

• Added the support for GeoHatchStyle.
• Added obfuscation for internal class
• Added more properties on GPSMarker for customization.
• Added DrawingQuality on Overlay.
• Refined the code for requesting cancellation.
• Added the logic to check Tile is null.
• Fixed xml namespace bug for TiledWmsRasterSource
• Fixed tile matrix unit issue for GoogleMap.
• Fixed the bug that getting stream by uri is null.
• Fixed WmsOverlay hard code issue.
• Fixed WmsLayer reading xml issue.
• Fixed a bug that the HeatStyle not work correctly.
• Reverted the wrong attribute string from ? to ©
• Fixed the bug for evaluation days.
• Fixed repeat adding tile bug.

The following was created before Map Suite 10. Map Suite 10 organized many classes into new namespaces and assemblies as well as had a few minor breaks in compatibility. The majority of previously built code should work without modification assuming the new namespaces are added.
