[Mono-osx] Draw Image and Font

[De Santis Luca]

I've try solution with subclass of nsview and override the DrawRect and run well inside a normal application. But now I've moved the draw function inside an external DLL. I use a double buffer to draw to screen a NSImage.
I call this function, stored in and external DLL, from main application:
public static void DrawImage(ref NSImage mainBuffer, NSImageRep ImageAPIObj,Rectangle tmpRect,int BlendValue)
{
	mainBuffer.Draw(ImageAPIObj,macRect(tmpRect));
}
but I recive this error message:
<Error>: CGContextSetBlendMode: invalid context 0x0<Error>: CGContextGetBlendMode: invalid context 0x0<Error>: CGContextSetBlendMode: invalid context 0x0<Error>: CGContextDrawImage: invalid context 0x0
I can't understand how to use Graphic Context on mac applicanion with monomac.

Hi Luca,
Create a subclass of NSView, and override the DrawRect method:
public override void DrawRect(RectangleF rect)
{
   var context = NSGraphicsContext.CurrentContext;

   ... do your drawing here ...   
}

You can then add your custom view to a window.
