Matrix

open class Matrix : MatrixProtocol

A CoglMatrix holds a 4x4 transform matrix. This is a single precision, column-major matrix which means it is compatible with what OpenGL expects.

A CoglMatrix can represent transforms such as, rotations, scaling, translation, sheering, and linear projections. You can combine these transforms by multiplying multiple matrices in the order you want them applied.

The transformation of a vertex (x, y, z, w) by a CoglMatrix is given by:

  x_new = xx * x + xy * y + xz * z + xw * w
  y_new = yx * x + yy * y + yz * z + yw * w
  z_new = zx * x + zy * y + zz * z + zw * w
  w_new = wx * x + wy * y + wz * z + ww * w

Where w is normally 1

<note>You must consider the members of the CoglMatrix structure read only, and all matrix modifications must be done via the cogl_matrix API. This allows Cogl to annotate the matrices internally. Violation of this will give undefined results. If you need to initialize a matrix with a constant other than the identity matrix you can use cogl_matrix_init_from_array().</note>

The Matrix type acts as an owner of an underlying CoglMatrix instance. It provides the methods that can operate on this data type through MatrixProtocol conformance. Use Matrix as a strong reference or owner of a CoglMatrix instance.

  • ptr 
    Untyped pointer to the underlying `CoglMatrix` instance.

    For type-safe access, use the generated, typed pointer matrix_ptr property instead.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public let ptr: UnsafeMutableRawPointer!

  • Designated initialiser from the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Matrix instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init(_ op: UnsafeMutablePointer<CoglMatrix>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Designated initialiser from a constant pointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Matrix instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init(_ op: UnsafePointer<CoglMatrix>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Optional initialiser from a non-mutating gpointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Matrix instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init!(gpointer op: gpointer?)

    Parameters

    op

    gpointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Optional initialiser from a non-mutating gconstpointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Matrix instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init!(gconstpointer op: gconstpointer?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from a constant pointer to the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Matrix instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init!(_ op: UnsafePointer<CoglMatrix>?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object

  • Optional initialiser from the underlying C data type. This creates an instance without performing an unbalanced retain i.e., ownership is transferred to the Matrix instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init!(_ op: UnsafeMutablePointer<CoglMatrix>?)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Designated initialiser from the underlying C data type. CoglMatrix does not allow reference counting, so despite the name no actual retaining will occur. i.e., ownership is transferred to the Matrix instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init(retaining op: UnsafeMutablePointer<CoglMatrix>)

    Parameters

    op

    pointer to the underlying object
    Show on GitHub

  • Reference intialiser for a related type that implements MatrixProtocol CoglMatrix does not allow reference counting.

    Declaration

    Swift

    @inlinable
public init<T>(_ other: T) where T : MatrixProtocol

    Parameters

    other

    an instance of a related type that implements MatrixProtocol
