You need to poke around, first check the pictureType field to see
what type of picture the REALbasic picture actually has.
If the type is pictureMacintoshGWorld (assuming you are one a Mac)
then you can safely assume that the pictureData contains GWorld, if
not then you need to take some steps to convert the picture, or read
it as PicHandle or IconHandle.
On Windows you are either dealing with a DIB or HBITMAP (again you
have to check each time)
On Linux you get GdkPixmap (always)

Most of the structures in the Plugin SDK are all anonymous

SetPropValue and REALLoadObjectMethod can be used to call methods
not exposed.
What I would really like to do is get access to the Pixels in the
Picture.
After I enabled auto-complete in CodeWarrior I can see the public
properties of the REALpictureDescription, and I can see that there
is a "pictureData void*" property. Am I able to access the raw
bitmap data with this property?
My primary task is to make a duplicate of the existing Picture, and
I would like to use the REALBuildPictureFromPictureDescription
method to create the copy. Is this possible?
