/** Usually, ISceneManager::getMesh() is called to load a mesh from file.
That method searches the list of loaded meshes if a mesh has already been loaded and
returns a pointer to if it is in that list and already in memory. Otherwise it loads
the mesh. With IMeshCache::addMesh(), it is possible to pretend that a mesh already
has been loaded. This method can be used for example by mesh loaders who need to
load more than one mesh with one call. They can add additional meshes with this
method to the scene manager. The COLLADA loader for example uses this method.

parameter, the method will return the mesh parameter given with this method.
