/** CPP-API: The Exporter class forms an C++ interface to the export functionality
 * of the Open Asset Import Library. Note that the export interface is available
 * only if Assimp has been built with ASSIMP_BUILD_NO_EXPORT not defined.
 *
 * The interface is modeled after the importer interface and mostly
 * symmetric. The same rules for threading etc. apply.
 *
 * In a nutshell, there are two export interfaces: #Export, which writes the
 * output file(s) either to the regular file system or to a user-supplied
 * #IOSystem, and #ExportToBlob which returns a linked list of memory
 * buffers (blob), each referring to one output file (in most cases
 * there will be only one output file of course, but this extra complexity is
 * needed since Assimp aims at supporting a wide range of file formats).
 *
 * #ExportToBlob is especially useful if you intend to work
 * with the data in-memory.

     * @param pBlob A data blob obtained from a previous call to #aiExportScene. Must not be nullptr.
     * @param pPath Full target file name. Target must be accessible.
     * @param pPreprocessing Accepts any choice of the #aiPostProcessSteps enumerated
     *   flags, but in reality only a subset of them makes sense here. Specifying
     *   'preprocessing' flags is useful if the input scene does not conform to
     *   Assimp's default conventions as specified in the @link data Data Structures Page @endlink.
     *   In short, this means the geometry data should use a right-handed coordinate systems, face
     *   winding should be counter-clockwise and the UV coordinate origin is assumed to be in
     *   the upper left. The #aiProcess_MakeLeftHanded, #aiProcess_FlipUVs and
     *   #aiProcess_FlipWindingOrder flags are used in the import side to allow users
     *   to have those defaults automatically adapted to their conventions. Specifying those flags
     *   for exporting has the opposite effect, respectively. Some other of the
     *   #aiPostProcessSteps enumerated values may be useful as well, but you'll need
     *   to try out what their effect on the exported file is. Many formats impose
     *   their own restrictions on the structure of the geometry stored therein,
     *   so some preprocessing may have little or no effect at all, or may be
     *   redundant as exporters would apply them anyhow. A good example
     *   is triangulation - whilst you can enforce it by specifying
     *   the #aiProcess_Triangulate flag, most export formats support only
     *   triangulate data so they would run the step even if it wasn't requested.
     *
     *   If assimp detects that the input scene was directly taken from the importer side of
     *   the library (i.e. not copied using aiCopyScene and potentially modified afterwards),
     *   any post-processing steps already applied to the scene will not be applied again, unless
     *   they show non-idempotent behavior (#aiProcess_MakeLeftHanded, #aiProcess_FlipUVs and
     *   #aiProcess_FlipWindingOrder).
     * @return AI_SUCCESS if everything was fine.
