Here is a minimal DrawView () as it might be implemented in the
concrete viewer.

void G4VViewer::DrawView () {  // Default - concrete view usually overrides.

  // First, a view should decide when to re-visit the G4 kernel.
  // Sometimes it might not be necessary, e.g., if the scene is stored
  // in a graphical database (e.g., OpenGL's display lists) and only
  // the viewing angle has changed.  But graphics systems without a
  // graphical database will always need to visit the G4 kernel.

  NeedKernelVisit ();  // Default is - always visit G4 kernel.
  // Note: this routine sets the fNeedKernelVisit flag of *all* the views of
  // the scene.

  ProcessView ();             // The basic logic is here.

  // Then a view may have more to do, e.g., display the graphical
  // database.  That code should come here before finally...

  FinishView ();              // Flush streams and/or swap buffers.
