Cocoa in a Nutshell

Name

NSImage — Mac OS X 10.0

Synopsis

This class is the general interface to images in the AppKit. Instances of NSImage usually have one or more image representations (instances of the class NSImageRep or one of its subclasses) associated with them. The purpose of keeping multiple image representations is so the image data can be rendered on a variety of devices, with each image representation providing rendering functionality for a specific device.
