// CLASS DECLARATION (MPxPrimitiveGenerator)

//! \ingroup OpenMayaRender MPx
//! \brief Base class for user defined primitive generators.
/*!

Implementations of MPxPrimitiveGenerator must be registered with Maya through
MDrawRegistry.

MPxPrimitiveGenerators are registered with a unique primitive type name.  
The name signifies the name of the custom primitive the generator can produce.  
When an MPxShaderOverride or custom renderer uses an effect with custom input 
primitive they can provide a MIndexBufferDescriptor with the desired custom primitive name.
A registered MPxPrimitiveGenerator will be used to produce the custom primitive.
