Microsoft DirectX 9.0 SDK Update (October 2004)

UnsafeNativeMethods.Quaternion.Conjugate Method

Language:

Note: This documentation is preliminary and is subject to change.

Returns the conjugate of a quaternion.

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

Definition

Visual Basic .NET Public Shared Function Conjugate( _
    ByVal pOut As Quaternion, _
    ByVal pQuat As Quaternion _
) As Quaternion
C# public static Quaternion Conjugate(
    Quaternion pOut,
    Quaternion pQuat
);
Managed C++ public: static Quaternion Conjugate(
    Quaternion pOut,
    Quaternion pQuat
);
JScript .NET public static function Conjugate(
    pOut : Quaternion,
    pQuat : Quaternion
) : Quaternion;

Parameters

pOut Microsoft.DirectX.Quaternion. A Quaternion structure that is the conjugate of the pQuat parameter.
pQuat Microsoft.DirectX.Quaternion. Source Quaternion.

Return Value

Microsoft.DirectX.Quaternion . A Quaternion structure that is the conjugate of the pQuat parameter.

Remarks

Given a quaternion (x, y, z, w), the Conjugate method returns the quaternion (-x, -y, -z, w).

The return value for this method is the same value returned in the pOut parameter. Resultantly, the Conjugate method can be used as a parameter for another method.
