Animation

class Animation : public HPS::Sprocket 

The Animation class is used to animate objects in the scene through the creation of one or more Channels. An Animation is owned by a Model, and as such needs to be created through the Model::CreateAnimation function. Animation objects are only valid for playback if they contain one or more Channel objects.
