// Example custom transform:
//  This plug-in implements an example custom transform that
//  can be used to perform a rocking motion around the X axix.
//  Geometry of any rotation can be made a child of this transform
//  to demonstrate the effect.
//  The plug-in contains two pieces:
//  1. The custom transform node -- rockingTransformNode
//  2. The custom transformation matrix -- rockingTransformMatrix
//  These classes are used together in order to implement the
//  rocking motion.  Note that the rock attribute is stored outside
//  of the regular transform attributes.
//
// MEL usage:
/*
    // Create a rocking transform and make a rotated plane
    // its child.
    loadPlugin rockingTransform;
    file -f -new;
    polyPlane -w 1 -h 1 -sx 10 -sy 10 -ax 0 1 0 -tx 1 -ch 1;
    select -r pPlane1 ;
    rotate -r -ws -15 -15 -15 ;
    createNode rockingTransform;
    parent pPlane1 rockingTransform1;
    setAttr rockingTransform1.rockx 55;
