Matrix rotation

[KakCAT]

Hi!

I seem to fail to see the function in the API, because it's obvious it's there.

I have a CMatrix4, which I makeIdentity();

I want to rotate this matrix around the Y axis a certain angle alpha, i.e. having

Code: Select all

1 0 0 0 
0 1 0 0
0 0 1 0

I'd like to get

Code: Select all

ca  0  sa 0
0   1  0  0
-sa 0  ca 0

ca=cos alpha
sa=sin alpha

(I hope I haven't messed the rotation matrix )

Thanks,
Kak

setRotationRadians(0,a,0) should do this.

setRotationRadians(0,a,0) should do this.

thanks! I expected something like function (normalized vector, angle), I suppose that's why I discarded this function despite I saw it was probably the correct one
