NAME
SbMatrix -
SYNOPSIS
#include <Inventor/SbLinear.h>
Detailed Description
The SbMatrix class is a 4x4 dimensional representation of a matrix.
SbMatrix is used by many other classes in Coin. It provides storage for a 4x4 matrix of single-precision floating point values.
By definition, matrices in Coin should be set up in column-order mode. This is the same order as used by e.g. OpenGL, but note that books on geometry often uses the opposite row-order mode, which can confuse new-comers to the API.
Another way to think of column-order matrices is that they use post-order multiplications: that is, to concatenate a transformation from a second matrix with your current matrix, it should be multiplied on the right-hand side, i.e. with the SbMatrix::multRight() method.
If you have a matrix in row-order from some other source, it can be 'converted' to column-order by transposing it with SbMatrix::transpose(). A simple example will help to explain this.
With row-order matrices, a transformation matrix with position, rotation and scale looks like this:
M = T * R * S
Where T is translation, R is rotation and S is the scale. What this means is that scale is applied first. The scaled matrix is then rotated, and finally the scaled and rotated matrix is translated. When using column-order matrices, as done in Coin, matrices are represented slightly differently; the order of multiplication is reversed:
M = S * R * T
The transformation is just the same as the row-order matrix. The only difference being the order of multiplication. To understand why this is so, consider the sample transformation:
M = T * R * S
Converting M from a row-order matrix to a column-order matrix is done as follows:
M^t = (T * R * S)^t M^t = ((T * R) * S)^t M^t = S^t * (T * R)^t M^t = S^t * R^t * T^t
All left to be done is to remove the transpose symbols, and the matrices have been converted to column-order matrices:
M = S * R * T
This was done using the fact that:
A^t = (B * C)^t = C^t * B^t
Converting from column-order to row-order is done using the same principle.

SbBool SbMatrix::factor (SbMatrix & r, SbVec3f & s, SbMatrix & u, SbVec3f & t, SbMatrix & proj)
This function is not implemented in Coin.
See also: getTransform()
SbBool SbMatrix::LUDecomposition (int index[4], float & d)
This function produces a permuted LU decomposition of the matrix. It uses the common single-row-pivoting strategy.
FALSE is returned if the matrix is singular, which it never is, because of small adjustment values inserted if a singularity is found (as Open Inventor does too).
The parity argument is always set to 1.0 or -1.0. Don't really know what it's for, so it's not checked for correctness.
The index[] argument returns the permutation that was done on the matrix to LU-decompose it. index[i] is the row that row i was swapped with at step i in the decomposition, so index[] is not the actual permutation of the row indexes!
BUGS: The function does not produce results that are numerically identical with those produced by Open Inventor for the same matrices, because the pivoting strategy in OI was never fully understood.
See also: SbMatrix::LUBackSubstitution
void SbMatrix::LUBackSubstitution (int index[4], float b[4]) const
This function does a solve on the 'Ax = b' system, given that the matrix is LU-decomposed in advance. First, a forward substitution is done on the lower system (Ly = b), and then a backwards substitution is done on the upper triangular system (Ux = y).
The index[] argument is the one returned from SbMatrix::LUDecomposition(), so see that function for an explanation.
The b[] argument must contain the b vector in 'Ax = b' when calling the function. After the function has solved the system, the b[] vector contains the x vector.
BUGS: As is done by Open Inventor, unsolvable x values will not return NaN but 0.
SbMatrix SbMatrix::transpose (void) const
Returns the transpose of this matrix.
SbMatrix & SbMatrix::multRight (const SbMatrix & m)
Let this matrix be right-multiplied by m. Returns reference to self.
This is the most common multiplication / concatenation operation when using column-order matrices, as SbMatrix instances are, by definition.
See also: multLeft()
SbMatrix & SbMatrix::multLeft (const SbMatrix & m)
Let this matrix be left-multiplied by m. Returns reference to self.
(Be aware that it is more common to use the SbMatrix::multRight() operation, when doing concatenation of transformations, as SbMatrix instances are by definition in column-order, and uses post-multiplication for common geometry operations.)
See also: multRight()
void SbMatrix::multMatrixVec (const SbVec3f & src, SbVec3f & dst) const
Multiply src vector with this matrix and return the result in dst. Multiplication is done with the vector on the right side of the expression, i.e. dst = M * src.
(Be aware that it is more common to use the SbMatrix::multVecMatrix() operation, when doing vector transformations, as SbMatrix instances are by definition in column-order, and uses post-multiplication for common geometry operations.)
See also: multVecMatrix(), multDirMatrix() and multLineMatrix().
void SbMatrix::multVecMatrix (const SbVec3f & src, SbVec3f & dst) const
Multiply src vector with this matrix and return the result in dst. Multiplication is done with the vector on the left side of the expression, i.e. dst = src * M.
It is safe to let src and dst be the same SbVec3f instance.
This method can be used (using the current model matrix) to transform a point from an object coordinate systems to the world coordinate system.
This operation is what you would usually do when transforming vectors, as SbMatrix instances are, by definition, column-order matrices.
See also: multMatrixVec(), multDirMatrix() and multLineMatrix().
void SbMatrix::multDirMatrix (const SbVec3f & src, SbVec3f & dst) const
Multiplies src by the matrix. src is assumed to be a direction vector, and the translation components of the matrix are therefore ignored.
Multiplication is done with the vector on the left side of the expression, i.e. dst = src * M.
See also: multVecMatrix(), multMatrixVec() and multLineMatrix().
void SbMatrix::multLineMatrix (const SbLine & src, SbLine & dst) const
Multiplies line point with the full matrix and multiplies the line direction with the matrix without the translation components.
See also: multVecMatrix(), multMatrixVec() and multDirMatrix().
void SbMatrix::multVecMatrix (const SbVec4f & src, SbVec4f & dst) const
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
void SbMatrix::print (FILE * fp) const
Write out the matrix contents to the given file.
