yep, no official documentation; on the other hand, that was my first
plugin, and i was just happy it worked without obvious explosions.
also i've used this technique with CGImageRefs without any obvious ill
effects - it seems i always need to pass out a structure of stuff with
an image or two in there, as opposed to a 'video stream' of images
outputting from a patch's port.
it certainly raises some questions / thoughts about image handling /
caching etc.

Thats interesting. I would have assumed you would need to make
QCimage providers for each item in the dictionary. Is this the
proper way to handle multi image out via structure?
I wonder if thats a kosher implementation?
Just curious, I dont think Ive seen mentions of images in structure
outputs or how to do it.

Hello,
Related is a patch I released ages ago, which created NSImages and
outputted them as objects in a NSDictionary, along with a load of
metadata. It also turned out to be a lot simpler to code - just put
the NSImage into a NSDictionary, output that and without any
further ado it just works.

The source should be in the download if you're interested.

Dear all,
I'm having some trouble trying to proceed with this custom patch
that I've got. The patch basically accepts some numeric input
parameters which determines what data to grab from a URL, and
renders the results into an image to be send out via the output
port of the patch.
I've got the image generated nicely as a NSImage, and I'm not
stuck on how to send the NSImage to the output port. Would really
appreciate some pointers on this, as I'm not even sure if I should
be using NSImage for such operations or not.
thanks in advance,
Adrian
