/**
        @brief DepthShadowRecieverRenderTechnique used in an OGRE environment.

        This technique defines that the object will recieve shadows with the help of depth shadow maps.
        Each lightsource can have a depth map assigned to it. These are going to be refreshed only 
        if shadow recievers are visible. It is the shadow reciever technique's resposibility
        to refresh them.

        The shadows from each light are calculated in separate passes. Each pass will
        modulate the shaded image, so thes should be the last passes (but before caustic passes).
        The given Pass* parameter n the constructor defines the pass after which new
        shadow recieving passes will be added by the technique.
