Class ImpNode, Class Interval, Class_ID, Class GenLight, Class GenCamera.

Description:
Import Interface class. Methods of this class allow the plug-in to create nodes in the scene, create camera and light objects, and create objects by specifying a super class ID and Class ID. Methods are also available to bind target nodes to their Look At nodes. All methods of this class are implemented by the system.
