        @remarks
            The Ogre::Root class represents a starting point for the client
            application. From here, the application can gain access to the
            fundamentals of the system, namely the rendering systems
            available, management of saved configurations, logging, and
            access to other classes in the system. Acts as a hub from which
            all other objects may be reached. An instance of Root must be
            created before any other Ogre operations are called. Once an
            instance has been created, the same instance is accessible
            throughout the life of that object by using Root::getSingleton
            (as a reference) or Root::getSingletonPtr (as a pointer).

                <br>Users of the OGRE library do not have to use this
                automatic rendering loop. It is there as a convenience and is
                most useful for high frame rate applications e.g. games. For
                applications that don't need to constantly refresh the
                rendering targets (e.g. an editor utility), it is better to
                manually refresh each render target only when required by
                calling RenderTarget::update, or if you want to run your own
                render loop you can update all targets on demand using
                Root::renderOneFrame.
            @note
                This frees up the CPU to do other things in between
                refreshes, since in this case frame rate is less important.
            @note
                This method can only be called after Root::initialise has
                been called.

            Resource type.
            @remarks
                Resource files (textures, models etc) need to be loaded from
                specific locations. By calling this method, you add another 
                search location to the list. Locations added first are preferred
                over locations added later.
            @par
                Locations can be folders, compressed archives, even perhaps
                remote locations. Facilities for loading from different
                locations are provided by plugins which provide
                implementations of the Archive class.
                All the application user has to do is specify a 'loctype'
                string in order to indicate the type of location, which
                should map onto one of the provided plugins. Ogre comes
                configured with the 'FileSystem' (folders) and 'Zip' (archive
                compressed with the pkzip / WinZip etc utilities) types.
            @par
                You can also supply the name of a resource group which should
                have this location applied to it. The 
                ResourceGroupManager::DEFAULT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME group is the
                default, and one resource group which will always exist. You
                should consider defining resource groups for your more specific
                resources (e.g. per level) so that you can control loading /
                unloading better.
            @param
                name The name of the location, e.g. './data' or
                '/compressed/gamedata.zip'
            @param
                locType A string identifying the location type, e.g.
                'FileSystem' (for folders), 'Zip' etc. Must map to a
                registered plugin which deals with this type (FileSystem and
                Zip should always be available)
            @param
                groupName Type of name of the resource group which this location
                should apply to; defaults to the General group which applies to
                all non-specific resources.
            @param
                recursive If the resource location has a concept of recursive
                directory traversal, enabling this option will mean you can load
                resources in subdirectories using only their unqualified name.
                The default is to disable this so that resources in subdirectories
                with the same name are still unique.
