## Detailed Description

A POD-struct comprising a 4x4 matrix.

Matrices are stored in row-major order.

## Member Function Documentation

openvrml::mat4f & openvrml::mat4f::operator*= | ( | float | scalar | ) | throw ()

Multiply by a scalar.

Parameters:

  [in] | scalar | value by which to multiply.

Returns:
  a reference to the object.

openvrml::mat4f & openvrml::mat4f::operator*= | ( | const mat4f & | mat | ) | throw ()

Multiply by another matrix.

Sets the matrix equal to the matrix multiplied by `mat`.

Parameters:

  [in] | mat | the matrix by which to multiply.

Returns:
  a reference to the object.

const float(& openvrml::mat4f::operator[] | ( | const std::size_t | index | ) | )[4]`[inline]`

Row access.

Parameters:

  [in] | index | row index.

Returns:
  row `index`.

void openvrml::mat4f::transformation | ( | vec3f & | t,
|  | rotation & | r,
|  | vec3f & | s
| ) |  | const throw ()

Get the translation, rotation and scale from the orthogonal transformation matrix.

Any projection or shear information in the matrix is ignored. The caller is responsible for assuring that the transformation is in fact orthogonal; otherwise the results are undefined.

Parameters:

  [out] | t | translation.
  [out] | r | rotation.
  [out] | s | scale.

void openvrml::mat4f::transformation | ( | vec3f & | t,
|  | rotation & | r,
|  | vec3f & | s,
|  | vec3f & | shear
| ) |  | const throw ()

Get the translation, rotation, scale and shear from an affine transformation matrix.

Any projection information in the matrix is ignored. As VRML allows non-uniform scaling, it is safe to call this routine. The caller is responsible for assuring that the transformation matrix is in fact affine; otherwise the results are undefined.

Parameters:

  [out] | t | translation.
  [out] | r | rotation.
  [out] | s | scale.
  [out] | shear | shear.

const openvrml::mat4f openvrml::mat4f::inverse | ( |  | ) | const throw ()

Get the inverse of an affine matrix.

Returns:
  the inverse of the matrix.

Precondition:
  the current matrix must be affine.

const openvrml::mat4f openvrml::mat4f::transpose | ( |  | ) | const throw ()

Get the transposition of the matrix.

Returns:
  a transposed copy of the matrix.

float openvrml::mat4f::det | ( |  | ) | const throw ()

Determinant.

Returns:
  the determinant.
