The goal:
A window with two views. The view on the left, NSImageView, displays the NSImage from - (void)openPanelDidEnd:. The right view, NSView, displays the result of a CIFilter using the pixel data displayed in the right-hand view.

The problem:
I cannot convert the NSImage used in the NSImageView to a CIImage because:
1. I do not know how to access the NSImage pixel data


You can make an NSBitmapImageRep and draw the NSImage into that.


2. I do not know how to convert NSImage data to CIImage data. (The developer site has code samples for CGImage to CIImage but nothing for NSImage to CIImage?)


There's a handful of ways and depends what works best for you. One is to get an NSData with TIFFRepresentation and use that data to initWithData: a CIImage. Or make it with the bitmap created from the above.

There's also ways to do these using CoreGraphics if you need those types as well. If so I can give examples using those.
