D3DXMATRIX Structure

Describes a matrix.

Members

Remarks

This structure inherits members from the D3DMATRIX structure. C programmers cannot use the D3DXMATRIX structure. They must use the D3DMATRIX structure.

In Direct3D extensions (D3DX), the _34 element of a projection matrix cannot be a negative number. If your application needs to use a negative value in this location, it should scale the entire projection matrix by -1, instead.

C++ programmers can take advantage of operator overloading and type casting with the D3DXMATRIX Extensions, which implement overloaded constructors, assignment, unary, and binary (including equality) operators.
