  Use MHWRender::MRenderItem and MHWRender::MIndexBuffer instead.

  MGeometryPrimitive is a class describes the topology used for
  accessing MGeometryData.

  Topology is specified as a set of index values which references into
  data elements in an MGeometryData. Index values can be assumed to be
  stored in contiguous memory.

  A "draw primitive type" indicates the format of the indexing as follows:

	\li kPoint : individual unconnected points.
	\li kLine : individual unconnected line segments.
	\li kLineStrip : connected line strip.
	\li kLineLoop : closed line loop.
	\li kTriangle : filled triangle.
	\li kTriangleStrip : filled triangle strip.
	\li kTriangleFan : filled triangle fan
	\li kQuad : filled quadrilateral (quad).
	\li kQuadStrip : filled quad strip.
	\li kPolygon : filled N-sided polygon


  Internal Maya data which is passed to the user via this class is
  always assumed to be non-modifiable. <b>If modified, stability
  cannot be ensured.</b>
