 @deprecated

 A handle to a reference-counted collection of images with the same attributes which

 is allocated in such a way that it can be used with the Graphics Composition Engine.

 Users can access each of the images in the collection individually through RSgImage

 handles. Interoperability with the Graphics Composition Engine is achieved by

 passing the surface identifier returned by SurfaceId() in calls to the Graphics

 Composition Engine API or the Surface Update API.

 Since both images and image collections are reference-counted, and an image collection

 can only be destroyed as a whole, then an image collection is guaranteed to exist

 while there is an open RSgImageCollection handle referencing it or there are open

 RSgImage handles referencing any of the individual images in the collection.

 A new RSgImageCollection handle does not refer to an image collection until a

 successful call to Create(). Before that point, the handle is said to be a null

 handle. Instances of RSgImageCollection can be shared among threads in the same

 process.

 An RSgImageCollection handle is said to be invalid if it is not null but it does not

 reference an existing image collection. Copying an instance of RSgImageCollection

 must be done with extreme care, since it does not increment the reference count of

 the referenced image collection and may therefore allow some RSgImageCollection or

 RSgImage handle to become invalid when the image collection is destroyed.
