Detailed Description

base class for providing texture mapping for materials.

Texture classes are used in connjunction with rtl_material classes. Each material may or may not have an associated texture. If it does have a texture associated with it then the texture's texture function will be called. This allows the definition of surface properties to a material before shading by the illumination model takes place.

Sub-classes must over-ride the texture function.
