    const NSInteger numberOfComponents = [self numberOfComponents];
    CGFloat components[numberOfComponents];
    CGColorSpaceRef colorSpace = [[self colorSpace] CGColorSpace];

    [self getComponents:(CGFloat *)&components];

    return (CGColorRef)[(id)CGColorCreate(colorSpace, components) autorelease];
}

+ (NSColor *)colorWithCGColor:(CGColorRef)CGColor
{
    if (CGColor == NULL) return nil;
    return [NSColor colorWithCIColor:[CIColor colorWithCGColor:CGColor]];
}

@end

how can we use this with ARC?
