How to create NSCursor from CGBitmap?



Hi all,

	I've got several .png files that I want to use as custom cursors in my app. I'm loading them into CGBitmap objects, and have written code that creates NSImage objects using them, via initWithCGImage:size:.  I then use those NSImage objects to create my NSCursor objects via initWithImage:hotSpot:.

	Unfortunately, I just noticed that the NSImage function initWithCGImage:size: is not supported until OS X 10.6, and I need to support 10.5 as well.  How can I create my NSCursor objects from my CGBitmap objects, in a manner that IS supported in 10.5?

	(By the way, I can't create the NSCursor objects directly from the files - assuming that's possible anyway - because I'm using cross-platform code to get my bitmaps, which provides an object that I can cast to a CGBitmap on the Mac. So, I need to start with CGBitmap objects and create NSCursor objects from those.)

Thanks,
	Howard
