Does anyone have code for generating a CGImageRef or CGContextRef from a PF_EffectWorld?

Hey Folks,

I'm writing a Mac-based AE plugin, and I need to create a Mac-compatible image from a PF_EffectWorld. Has anyone written code to do that? I have it working with 8-bits per channel images, but I can't seem to get 16-bit working. I basically need to create a CGImageRef or CGContextRef from a PF_EffectWorld that is either 8-bits or 16-bits per channel.

isn't a CGImageRef always 8bits?

in any case, you can alocate ram for a new buffer, convert your 16bpc image into an 8bpc image, and the convert that buffer into a CGImageRef.

am i missing something here?
