94    /** Defines the functionality of a 3D API
95        @remarks
96            The RenderSystem class provides a base interface
97            which abstracts the general functionality of the 3D API
98            e.g. Direct3D or OpenGL. Whilst a few of the general
99            methods have implementations, most of this class is
100            abstract, requiring a subclass based on a specific API
101            to be constructed to provide the full functionality.
102            Note there are 2 levels to the interface - one which
103            will be used often by the caller of the Ogre library,
104            and one which is at a lower level and will be used by the
105            other classes provided by Ogre. These lower level
106            methods are prefixed with '_' to differentiate them.
107            The advanced user of the library may use these lower
108            level methods to access the 3D API at a more fundamental
109            level (dealing direct with render states and rendering
110            primitives), but still benefitting from Ogre's abstraction
111            of exactly which 3D API is in use.

770            fast.
771        @par
772            Generally hardware stencils are only supported in 32-bit colour modes, because
773            the stencil buffer shares the memory of the z-buffer, and in most cards the
774            z-buffer has to be the same depth as the colour buffer. This means that in 32-bit
775            mode, 24 bits of the z-buffer are depth and 8 bits are stencil. In 16-bit mode there
776            is no room for a stencil (although some cards support a 15:1 depth:stencil option,
777            this isn't useful for very much) so 8 bits of stencil are provided in software.
778            This can mean that if you use stencilling, your applications may be faster in
779            32-but colour than in 16-bit, which may seem odd to some people.

785            The stencil buffer is used to mask out pixels in the render target, allowing
786            you to do effects like mirrors, cut-outs, stencil shadows and more. Each of
787            your batches of rendering is likely to ignore the stencil buffer,
788            update it with new values, or apply it to mask the output of the render.
789            The stencil test is:<PRE>
790            (Reference Value & Mask) CompareFunction (Stencil Buffer Value & Mask)</PRE>
791            The result of this will cause one of 3 actions depending on whether the test fails,
792            succeeds but with the depth buffer check still failing, or succeeds with the
793            depth buffer check passing too.
794        @par
795            Unlike other render states, stencilling is left for the application to turn
796            on and off when it requires. This is because you are likely to want to change
797            parameters between batches of arbitrary objects and control the ordering yourself.
798            In order to batch things this way, you'll want to use OGRE's separate render queue
799            groups (see RenderQueue) and register a RenderQueueListener to get notifications
800            between batches.
