00029 //       Class : GeomNodeContext
00030 // Description : This is a special class object, similar to a
00031 //               TextureContext, that holds all the information
00032 //               returned by a particular GSG to cache the rendering
00033 //               information associated with one or more GeomNodes.
00034 //               This is similar to, but different from, a Geom
00035 //               context, which is associated with the containing Geom
00036 //               class; a GSG might prefer to associate data with
00037 //               either the Geom or the GeomNode or both.
00038 //
00039 //               This allows the GSG to precompute some information
00040 //               necessary for drawing the Geoms as quickly as
00041 //               possible and reuse that information across multiple
00042 //               frames.  Typically, only static Geoms
00043 //               (e.g. nonindexed) will be assigned GeomContexts.
