/// GFXDevice is the TSE graphics interface layer. This allows the TSE to
/// do many things, such as use multiple render devices for multi-head systems,
/// and allow a game to render in DirectX 9, OpenGL or any other API which has
/// a GFX implementation seamlessly. There are many concepts in GFX device which
/// may not be familiar to you, especially if you have not used DirectX.
/// @n
/// <b>Buffers</b>
/// There are three types of buffers in GFX: vertex, index and primitive. Please
/// note that index buffers are not accessable outside the GFX layer, they are wrapped
/// by primitive buffers. Primitive buffers will be explained in detail later.
/// Buffers are allocated and deallocated using their associated allocXBuffer and
/// freeXBuffer methods on the device. When a buffer is allocated you pass in a
/// pointer to, depending on the buffer, a vertex type pointer or a U16 pointer. 
/// During allocation, this pointer is set to the address of where you should
/// copy in the information for this buffer. You must the tell the GFXDevice
/// that the information is in, and it should prepare the buffer for use by calling
/// the prepare method on it. Dynamic vertex buffer example:
/// @code
/// GFXVertexP *verts;        // Making a buffer containing verticies with only position
///
/// // Allocate a dynamic vertex buffer to hold 3 vertices and use *verts as the location to copy information into
/// GFXVertexBufferHandle vb = GFX->allocVertexBuffer( 3, &verts, true ); 
///
/// // Now set the information, we're making a triangle
/// verts[0].point = Point3F( 200.f, 200.f, 0.f );
/// verts[1].point = Point3F( 200.f, 400.f, 0.f );
/// verts[2].point = Point3F( 400.f, 200.f, 0.f );
///
/// // Tell GFX that the information is in and it should be made ready for use
/// // Note that nothing is done with verts, this should not and MUST NOT be deleted
/// // stored, or otherwise used after prepare is called.
/// GFX->prepare( vb );
///
/// // Because this is a dynamic vertex buffer, it is only assured to be valid until someone 
/// // else allocates a dynamic vertex buffer, so we will render it now
/// GFX->setVertexBuffer( vb );
/// GFX->drawPrimitive( GFXTriangleStrip, 0, 1 );
///
/// // Now because this is a dynamic vertex buffer it MUST NOT BE FREED you are only
/// // given a handle to a vertex buffer which belongs to the device
/// @endcode
/// 
/// To use a static vertex buffer, it is very similar, this is an example using a
/// static primitive buffer:
/// @n
/// This takes place inside a constructor for a class which has a member variable
/// called mPB which is the primitive buffer for the class instance.
/// @code
/// U16 *idx;                          // This is going to be where to write indices
/// GFXPrimitiveInfo *primitiveInfo;   // This will be where to write primitive information
///
/// // Allocate a primitive buffer with 4 indices, and 1 primitive described for use
/// mPB = GFX->allocPrimitiveBuffer( 4, &idx, 1, &primitiveInfo );
///
/// // Write the index information, this is going to be for the outline of a triangle using
/// // a line strip
/// idx[0] = 0;
/// idx[1] = 1;
/// idx[2] = 2;
/// idx[3] = 0;
///
/// // Write the information for the primitive
/// primitiveInfo->indexStart = 0;            // Starting with index 0
/// primitiveInfo->minVertex = 0;             // The minimum vertex index is 0
/// primitiveInfo->maxVertex = 3;             // The maximum vertex index is 3
/// primitiveInfo->primitiveCount = 3;        // There are 3 lines we are drawing
/// primitiveInfo->type = GFXLineStrip;       // This primitive info describes a line strip
/// @endcode
/// The following code takes place in the destructor for the same class
/// @code
/// // Because this is a static buffer it's our responsibility to free it when we are done
/// GFX->freePrimitiveBuffer( mPB );
/// @endcode
/// This last bit takes place in the rendering function for the class
/// @code
/// // You need to set a vertex buffer as well, primitive buffers contain indexing
/// // information, not vertex information. This is so you could have, say, a static
/// // vertex buffer, and a dynamic primitive buffer.
///
/// // This sets the primitive buffer to the static buffer we allocated in the constructor
/// GFX->setPrimitiveBuffer( mPB );
/// 
/// // Draw the first primitive contained in the set primitive buffer, our primitive buffer
/// // has only one primitive, so we could also technically call GFX->drawPrimitives(); and
/// // get the same result. 
/// GFX->drawPrimitive( 0 );
/// @endcode
/// If you need any more examples on how to use these buffers please see the rest of the engine.
/// @n
/// <b>Primitive Buffers</b>
/// @n
/// Primitive buffers wrap and extend the concept of index buffers. The purpose of a primitive
/// buffer is to let objects store all information they have to render their primitives in
/// a central place. Say that a shape is made up of triangle strips and triangle fans, it would
/// still have only one primitive buffer which contained primitive information for each strip
/// and fan. It could then draw itself with one call.
