 * @class   vtkFixedPointVolumeRayCastCompositeHelper
 * @brief   A helper that generates composite images for the volume ray cast mapper
 *
 * This is one of the helper classes for the vtkFixedPointVolumeRayCastMapper.
 * It will generate composite images using an alpha blending operation.
 * This class should not be used directly, it is a helper class for
 * the mapper and has no user-level API.
