/**
* The <code>BufferStrategy</code> class represents the mechanism with which
* to organize complex memory on a particular <code>Canvas</code> or
* <code>Window</code>. Hardware and software limitations determine whether and
* how a particular buffer strategy can be implemented. These limitations
* are detectable through the capabilities of the
* <code>GraphicsConfiguration</code> used when creating the
* <code>Canvas</code> or <code>Window</code>.
* <p>
* It is worth noting that the terms <i>buffer</i> and <i>surface</i> are meant
* to be synonymous: an area of contiguous memory, either in video device
* memory or in system memory.
* <p>
* There are several types of complex buffer strategies, including
* sequential ring buffering and blit buffering.
* Sequential ring buffering (i.e., double or triple
* buffering) is the most common; an application draws to a single <i>back
* buffer</i> and then moves the contents to the front (display) in a single
* step, either by copying the data or moving the video pointer.
* Moving the video pointer exchanges the buffers so that the first buffer
* drawn becomes the <i>front buffer</i>, or what is currently displayed on the
* device; this is called <i>page flipping</i>.
* <p>
* Alternatively, the contents of the back buffer can be copied, or
* <i>blitted</i> forward in a chain instead of moving the video pointer.
* <pre>{@code
* Double buffering:
*
* *********** ***********
* * * ------> * *
* [To display] <---- * Front B * Show * Back B. * <---- Rendering
* * * <------ * *
* *********** ***********
*
* Triple buffering:
*
* [To *********** *********** ***********
* display] * * --------+---------+------> * *
* <---- * Front B * Show * Mid. B. * * Back B. * <---- Rendering
* * * <------ * * <----- * *
* *********** *********** ***********
*
* }</pre>
* <p>
* Here is an example of how buffer strategies can be created and used:
* <pre><code>
*
* // Check the capabilities of the GraphicsConfiguration
* ...
*
* // Create our component
* Window w = new Window(gc);
*
* // Show our window
* w.setVisible(true);
*
* // Create a general double-buffering strategy
* w.createBufferStrategy(2);
* BufferStrategy strategy = w.getBufferStrategy();
*
* // Main loop
* while (!done) {
* // Prepare for rendering the next frame
* // ...
*
* // Render single frame
* do {
* // The following loop ensures that the contents of the drawing buffer
* // are consistent in case the underlying surface was recreated
* do {
* // Get a new graphics context every time through the loop
* // to make sure the strategy is validated
* Graphics graphics = strategy.getDrawGraphics();
*
* // Render to graphics
* // ...
*
* // Dispose the graphics
* graphics.dispose();
*
* // Repeat the rendering if the drawing buffer contents
* // were restored
* } while (strategy.contentsRestored());
*
* // Display the buffer
* strategy.show();
*
* // Repeat the rendering if the drawing buffer was lost
* } while (strategy.contentsLost());
* }
*
* // Dispose the window
* w.setVisible(false);
* w.dispose();
