//! Interface for dynamic creation of scene node animators
/** To be able to add custom scene node animators to Irrlicht and to make it possible for the
scene manager to save and load those external animators, simply implement this
interface and register it in you scene manager via ISceneManager::registerSceneNodeAnimatorFactory.
Note: When implementing your own scene node factory, don't call ISceneNodeManager::grab() to
increase the reference counter of the scene node manager. This is not necessary because the
scene node manager will grab() the factory anyway, and otherwise cyclic references will
be created and the scene manager and all its nodes won't get deallocated.
