Matrix multiplication

Okay, what am I doing wrong?
The matrix multiplication is the problem. Am I able to multiply like this? Because the commented-out gl functions and my multMatrix don't act the same as my multMatrix functions.
Are rotation matricies cumulative like this? Even if the matrix starts out as a translation matrix and then get multiplied by rotation matrices? Because I was doing the same thing in 2d (but only one axis), and I was getting the proper result.
Edit:: So, if I had a rotationX matrix rotated by 10 degrees, and I multiplied that by another rotationX matrix rotated by 15 degrees, would the final matrix be rotated around the X axis by 25 degrees?
Your multMatrixmight be multiplying in the opposite order of what glRotate would do.
All gl transformation functions work in local space.
Applying a local space transformation T to your current transformation M would be:
if row major:
M = T * M
if column major:
M = M * T
Hope that helps

c2_0 may be right about multiplication order, but there are some other things about your example that are a little unclear. For example, the gl code increases the angle each frame, but the code you're using appears to always rotate by a (possibly unnoticable) .05 degrees. Unless, perhaps node->multMatrix() accumulates the rotation? In any case, you might post multMatrix(), as it's not clear from the context what it does.
Quote:if row major:Minor detail, but multiplication order is actually determined by whether you're using row or column vectors, not whether the matrices are row or column major.
M = T * M
if column major:
M = M * T

It would be easier to tell if you post your matrix code. c2_0 might be right, but there could be other problems with it (for example the rotation matrix construction functions)...

Some of the relevant code:
Note:: The matrix is row-major, but is then transposed, immediately before multiplying by the glMultMatrixf (or whatever it's called) function.
CMatrix functions:
I think that should be all of the relevant code.

First, from your setTranslation function it looks like your matrix is column major, not row major.
Also, if I remember correctly, OpenGL uses row major layout of matrices in memory, it's only the documentation which uses column major notation. I might be wrong on this, since I don't usually use OpenGL.
Lastly, you'd probably want to concatinate the matrices in the opposite order to perform local transformations.

The OP's setTranslation() function indicates that he's using column vectors, not that the matrix is column major. In fact, he's using 2d indexing, which clouds the issue of majorness somewhat. It happens that 2d c++ arrays are stored in row-major format, a fact the OP relies on in his memcpy() call. To ensure portability of code and consistency from platform to platform, it's a good idea to represent your matrix internally using a 1d rather than 2d array. This gives you complete control over the majorness and any related issues.
Confusing row/column vectors and row/column-major is a common mistake, one which I also made when I was first learning this material. Getting these two concepts clear in your mind early on will save you trouble down the line.
Also, OpenGL usus column-major rather than row-major format. It also uses column vectors, so it happens that the layout in memory is identical to that of a DirectX matrix. However, the code for multiplying OpenGL and DirectX matrices, as well as the order of operations, is different - the similarity in layout is really just incidental and shouldn't be invested with too much meaning.
I didn't look over all the code, but given the variables of majorness and vector convention, there are a lot of ways to get things wrong. Worse yet, two mistakes will often cancel each other out, so it's possible to have working code that is still incorrect :-)

Okay, well, I'm now re-writing my matrix class for a 1D array. Is there anything specific way I have to write it to insure that it is row-major or column-major?
And I'm going to keep the vectors as rows, instead of columns, and do a simple transpose when I need to interact with OGL.

Quote:Okay, well, I'm now re-writing my matrix class for a 1D array. Is there anything specific way I have to write it to insure that it is row-major or column-major?Just remember how the matrix is laid out in memory. Here's a matrix with 2d indexing:
[00 01]
[10 11]
The row-major form would be:
[0 1]
[2 3]
Column-major:
[0 2]
[1 3]
In code it's generally more intuitive to work with 2d indexing. One way to do this is to write an inline function that converts from 2d to 1d, something like:
private: float m_data[16]; float& m_(unsigned int i, unsigned int j) { return m_data[i*4+j]; }Quote:And I'm going to keep the vectors as rows, instead of columns, and do a simple transpose when I need to interact with OGL.Are you going to be using this class primarily with OpenGL? If so, why not just simplify things and use column vectors for consistency?
Let me know if you need more info.
