}Interpretation
The arrows summarize the source-visible entry, role-named types or folders, and framework direction; when nodes come from structural folders, the sequence is a high-level interpretation rather than proof that every adjacent node calls the next. Ownership is claimed only where the next section cites a stored property or assignment. The diagram is intentionally limited to the dominant path into MapKit.

Ownership evidence
MapKitFountains/FountainMapView.swift:49 — stored dependency or nearest verified ownership anchor
@State private var fountains: [MKMapItem] = []
@State private var selectedItem: MKMapItem?
@State private var cameraPosition: MapCameraPosition = .automatic
@State private var mapRoute: MKRoute?
@State private var lookAroundScene: MKLookAroundScene?
private let locationManager = CLLocationManager()| Owner | Object or state | Relationship | Mutation authority |
|---|---|---|---|
FountainMapView |
Array (fountains) |
owns wrapper-managed state | Owning lexical scope |
FountainMapView |
MKMapItem (selectedItem) |
owns wrapper-managed state | Owning lexical scope |
FountainMapView |
MapCameraPosition (cameraPosition) |
owns wrapper-managed state | Owning lexical scope |
FountainMapView |
MKRoute (mapRoute) |
owns wrapper-managed state | Owning lexical scope |
Composition arrows indicate a source-visible construction expression or locally owned value state; aggregation means the owner stores or receives a dependency without proving exclusive lifetime ownership.

No local protocol conformance is claimed as protocol-oriented design; external framework conformances are listed only as dependencies.
Access control
| Symbol | Access | Verified effect | Likely rationale |
|---|---|---|---|
fountains (MapKitFountains/FountainMapView.swift:49) |
private |
Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift. | Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation. |
selectedItem (MapKitFountains/FountainMapView.swift:50) |
private |
Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift. | Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation. |
cameraPosition (MapKitFountains/FountainMapView.swift:51) |
private |
Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift. | Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation. |
mapRoute (MapKitFountains/FountainMapView.swift:52) |
private |
Use is restricted to the lexical declaration and same-file extensions allowed by Swift. | Inference: keep state mutation or dependency lifetime inside the owning implementation. |
Reference code
MapKitFountains/FountainMapView.swift:49 — representative boundary
@State private var fountains: [MKMapItem] = []
@State private var selectedItem: MKMapItem?
@State private var cameraPosition: MapCameraPosition = .automatic
@State private var mapRoute: MKRoute?
@State private var lookAroundScene: MKLookAroundScene?Swift declarations without a modifier are internal; explicit private, fileprivate, private(set), public, or open entries above are interpreted by language semantics. Objective-C/C samples instead rely on header and implementation boundaries, which are not equivalent to Swift lexical privacy.
Logic ownership and placement
| Logic | Owning type or file | Placement rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Application entry and top-level composition | MapKitFountainsApp |
The source’s App suffix makes this role explicit. |
| User-interface presentation and input forwarding | ContentView, FountainMapView, GeocodeView, ReverseGeocodeView |
The source’s View suffix makes this role explicit. |
Design patterns
| Pattern | Source evidence | Purpose or tradeoff |
|---|---|---|
| No named application pattern | MapKitFountains/MapKitFountainsApp.swift:11 |
The verified source directly composes concrete framework types; this document avoids forcing a pattern name. |
Naming conventions
- Types: App: MapKitFountainsApp; View: ContentView, FountainMapView, GeocodeView, ReverseGeocodeView.
- Protocols: no local protocol declaration in the scanned source.
- Methods:
fountainMapItems. - Files:
MapKitFountains/MapKitFountainsApp.swift,MapKitFountains/FountainMapView.swift,MapKitFountains/ContentView.swift,MapKitFountains/GeocodeView.swift,MapKitFountains/ReverseGeocodeView.swift.
Architecture takeaways
MapKitFountainsAppis the main source-visible entry or composition anchor for this sample.- Framework work reaches SwiftUI, MapKit, CoreLocation, GeoToolbox through a deliberately small high-level chain; the detailed API graph remains inside the cited implementation files.
- Stored-property evidence identifies lifecycle collaboration; it does not by itself prove exclusive object ownership.
- Access-control conclusions separate verified language visibility from the likely design rationale.
- The source does not justify labeling the design protocol-oriented.
