-<p>For controls that perform intensive drawing operations, the drawing
-should be cached: a process also known as double-buffering. Here the drawing
-is done to a memory context first and then in the <xref href="jar:GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44.jar!/sdk/doc_source/reference/reference-cpp/Control_Environment/CCoeControlClass.html#%3a%3aCCoeControl%3a%3aDraw%28const%20TRect%20%26amp%3b%29const" format="application/java-archive"><parmname>CCoeControl::Draw</parmname></xref> method only the context's
-bitmap is passed to screen. In the Symbian platform, the easiest way to implement
-a double buffer is to create a <xref href="jar:GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44.jar!/sdk/doc_source/reference/reference-cpp/Font_and_Bitmap_Server/CFbsBitmapClass.html" format="application/java-archive"><parmname>CFbsBitmap</parmname></xref> and
-then bind a graphics context to that - this makes it possible to use the
-same GDI interface for drawing as the display context. The drawing is done
-to a memory bitmap buffer, and when the Symbian platform updates the invalidated
-screen area, the memory buffer is copied to it. Double-buffering is a common
-paradigm used in games, but can also be utilized in any application when performance
-of drawing controls is important.</p>
-<p>The following is a short example of how a double buffer is created and
