26 A class for supervising the rendering process. While many Renderables (in
27 particular, Objects and Scenes) can by rendered without a Renderer, using one
28 will often be more efficient. This is especially true for ObjectInstances.
30 The Renderer works by deferring GL state changes until something is actually
31 being drawn. This avoids many unnecessary GL calls if consecutive renderables
32 use the same resources.
34 A state stack is provided to help with state scoping. Typically a Renderable
35 will push the current state on entry, set whatever state it requires, render
36 itself, and pop the state when it's done. An RAII helper class is provided for
37 the push/pop operation.
