How do you inspect or print the description of a Core Graphics object?

Core Graphics objects don't really have descriptions. You can do a 'po the 
object' in gdb as usual, but you get just the class name and address, and no 
more.

What do you need to know?

There's no analogue to the  -description  method of Objective-C frameworks.

Many of the specific Core Graphics types like CGColor and CGColorSpace and
CGImage and CGFont have various 'Get . . .' function calls that provide sundry 
information about 
the object (CGColorGetComponents on CGColor, for instance).For CGPath, 
there's
a CGPathApply by which you can play back the elements of the path, and so on.   
 You
have to look at the stuff on a case-by-case basis . . .

   Cheers,
   . . . . . . . .Henry
