    ByVal axisRotation As Vector3, _
    ByVal angle As Single _
) As Matrix
C# public static Matrix RotationAxis(
    Vector3 axisRotation,
    float angle
);
C++ public:
static Matrix RotationAxis(
    Vector3 axisRotation,
    float angle
);
JScript public static function RotationAxis(
    axisRotation : Vector3,
    angle : float
) : Matrix;

Parameters

axisRotation Microsoft.DirectX.Vector3
A Vector3 structure that identifies the axis about which to rotate the matrix.
angle System.Single
