D3DXMatrixRotationAxis
Microsoft DirectX 9.0 SDK Update (October 2004)

D3DXMatrixRotationAxis Function


Builds a matrix that rotates around an arbitrary axis.

Syntax

D3DXMATRIX *WINAPI D3DXMatrixRotationAxis(      

    D3DXMATRIX *pOut,     CONST D3DXVECTOR3 *pV,     FLOAT Angle );

Parameters

pOut
[in, out] Pointer to the D3DXMATRIX structure that is the result of the operation.
pV
[in] Pointer to the arbitrary axis. See D3DXVECTOR3.
Angle
[in] Angle of rotation in radians. Angles are measured clockwise when looking along the rotation axis toward the origin.

Return Value

Pointer to a D3DXMATRIX structure rotated around the specified axis.



Remarks

The return value for this function is the same value returned in the pOut parameter. In this way, the D3DXMatrixRotationAxis function can be used as a parameter for another function.
