Be carefull when you mix CFType memory management, and obj-c memory management.
It works well when you do not use GC, but may become problematic if you do not take special care with GC code.


If I'm not wrong, it should be something like this:

[NSMakeCollectable(aCGImageRef) autorelease];

Since CGImage is derived from CFType you can just do:

[(id)aCGImageRef autorelease]

The reason being that CFType knows how to handle a -release message, and autorelease is just a way of deferring that message.

Given a CGImageRef, how can I autorelease it?

Perhaps this is obvious, or perhaps its impossible, but googling hasn't found me the answer yet except for a tantalizing comment in the docs for NSBitmapImageRep:

- (CGImageRef)CGImage (added in 10.5)
"Returns an autoreleased CGImage object (an opaque type) from the receiver's current bitmap data."


For CFStringRef, I know I can cast it to an NSString* and then autorelease it, but is there an equivalent for CGImageRef?

Thanks,
 Peter.
