UnsafeNativeMethods.Matrix.RotationAxis(Matrix,Vector3,Single) Method (Microsoft.DirectX)

  • Article

Builds a matrix that rotates around an arbitrary axis.

Note: For programming in Microsoft Visual Basic .NET or Microsoft JScript .NET, use the equivalent method in the Microsoft.DirectX structures.

Definition

Visual Basic Public Shared Function RotationAxis( _
    ByVal pOut As Matrix, _
    ByVal axisRotation As Vector3, _
    ByVal angle As Single _
) As Matrix
C# public static Matrix RotationAxis(
    Matrix pOut,
    Vector3 axisRotation,
    float angle
);
C++ public:
static Matrix RotationAxis(
    Matrix pOut,
    Vector3 axisRotation,
    float angle
);
JScript public static function RotationAxis(
    pOut : Matrix,
    axisRotation : Vector3,
    angle : float
) : Matrix;

Parameters

pOut Microsoft.DirectX.Matrix
Rotated Matrix structure.
axisRotation Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3
A Vector3 structure that identifies the axis about which to rotate the matrix.
angle System.Single

Return Value

Microsoft.DirectX.Matrix
Rotated Matrix structure.

Remarks

The input rotation angle is in radians.

The return value for this method is the same value returned in the pOut parameter. This allows you to use the RotationAxis method as a parameter for another method.
