// .NAME vtkVisibilitySort - Abstract class that can sort cell data along a viewpoint.
//
// .SECTION Description
// vtkVisibilitySort encapsulates a method for depth sorting the cells of a
// vtkDataSet for a given viewpoint.  It should be noted that subclasses
// are not required to give an absolutely correct sorting.  Many types of
// unstructured grids may have sorting cycles, meaning that there is no
// possible correct sorting.  Some subclasses also only give an approximate
// sorting in the interest of speed.
//
// .SECTION Note
// The Input field of this class tends to causes reference cycles.  To help
// break these cycles, garbage collection is enabled on this object and the
// input parameter is traced.  For this to work, though, an object in the
// loop holding the visibility sort should also report that to the garbage
// collector.

  // Description:
  // To facilitate incremental sorting algorithms, the cells are retrieved
  // in an iteration process.  That is, call InitTraversal to start the
  // iteration and call GetNextCells to get the cell IDs in order.
  // However, for efficiencies sake, GetNextCells returns an ordered list
  // of several id's in once call (but not necessarily all).  GetNextCells
  // will return NULL once the entire sorted list is output.  The
  // vtkIdTypeArray returned from GetNextCells is a cached array, so do not
  // delete it.  At the same note, do not expect the array to be valid
  // after subsequent calls to GetNextCells.
