Detailed Description

Object that represents drawable geometry. This object holds vertex, instancing and index buffers for drawing. The normal workflow is to:

Set the number of points in the geometry with setNumPoints()
Create all needed attribute definitions (P, N, uv, etc).
Create all needed index buffer definitions or connect groups
Call populateBuffers()
Fetch each attribute with getAttribute() and fill it with RV_Buffer::uploadData()
Fetch each index buffer with getIndexBuffer() and fill it with RV_Buffer::uploadData()
Draw connect groups with any of the draw...() methods. Draws must be done inside a begin/endRendering() block; all others must be done outside.
