Matrix

open class Matrix
kotlin.Any
   ↳ android.opengl.Matrix

Matrix math utilities. These methods operate on OpenGL ES format matrices and vectors stored in float arrays.

Matrices are 4 x 4 column-vector matrices stored in column-major order:

m[offset +  0] m[offset +  4] m[offset +  8] m[offset + 12]
   m[offset +  1] m[offset +  5] m[offset +  9] m[offset + 13]
   m[offset +  2] m[offset +  6] m[offset + 10] m[offset + 14]
   m[offset +  3] m[offset +  7] m[offset + 11] m[offset + 15]
Vectors are 4 x 1 column vectors stored in order:
v[offset + 0]
  v[offset + 1]
  v[offset + 2]
  v[offset + 3]

    rhsOffset: Int
): Unit

Multiplies two 4x4 matrices together and stores the result in a third 4x4 matrix. In matrix notation: result = lhs x rhs. Due to the way matrix multiplication works, the result matrix will have the same effect as first multiplying by the rhs matrix, then multiplying by the lhs matrix. This is the opposite of what you might expect.

The same float array may be passed for result, lhs, and/or rhs. This operation is expected to do the correct thing if the result elements overlap with either of the lhs or rhs elements.

Parameters
result FloatArray!: The float array that holds the result.
resultOffset Int: The offset into the result array where the result is stored.
lhs FloatArray!: The float array that holds the left-hand-side matrix.

rhsOffset Int: The offset into the rhs array where the rhs is stored.
Exceptions

): Unit

Multiplies a 4 element vector by a 4x4 matrix and stores the result in a 4-element column vector. In matrix notation: result = lhs x rhs
