+/*!
+ Fence syncs provide a mechanism for synchronizing access to certain GL primitives
+ and make it possible for the application developer to be sure that a certain point
+ in the GL processing pipeline has been already executed before continuing operation.
+
+ Currently fence syncs are only useful in conjunction with QMeeGoLivePixmaps.
+ \code
+ ...
+ // In your paint/expose event:
+ QImage *image = livePixmap->lock(&someGlobalFenceSync);
+ // Modify the image...
+ livePixmap->release(image);
+
+ painter->drawPixmap(0, 0, *livePixmap);
+ someGlobalFenceSync.setSyncPoint();
+ ...
+ \endcode
+
+ Assuming the paint/expose events come repeatedly, the lock operation
+ will block till the previous event completed painting the livePixmap.
