Quartz Composer Plugin

FastImage                   A Quartz Composer plug-in that outputs a texture based 

                        image directly from the host application.

Sample Requirements             The plugin was created using the Xcode editor running under 

                        Mac OS X 10.6.x or later. 

About the sample                A Quartz Composer plug-in that demonstrate an advanced 

                        technique for passing an existing OpenGL texture to a 

                        composition through a Quartz Composer plug-in in the most 

                        optimal way.

Using the Sample                Open the project using the Xcode editor which can be found 

                        in /Developer/Applications. From the main menu, 

                        choose "Project", set "Active Configuration" to "Release", 

                        and "Active Target" to "Build & Copy".  These settings are

                        also available from the top left corner of the 'Overview' 

                        pull-down window. Build the project. Once the build has 

                        completed successfully, the plug-in can be used as a 

                        regular QC patch in the Quartz Composer editor (also 

                        installed under /Developer/Applications), by selecting it 

                        from the Library - Plugin panel. The output image of this 

                        plug-in can be used as an image input in another QC patch.
