[ODE] How I use the dBodyGetPosition?

[Ed Jones]

 From the docs;

"When getting, the returned values are pointers to internal data 
structures, so the vectors are valid until any changes are made to the 
rigid body system structure."

dBodyGetPosition return a pointer to a dReal, you can access the x, y 
and z components of the position as you would any C array.
Lots of the examples show this usage, for example in test_buggy.cpp;

    const dReal *a = dBodyGetPosition (body[i+1]);
    dJointSetHinge2Anchor (joint[i],a[0],a[1],a[2]);

i.e. Set the anchor point of joint[i] to the position of body[i+1].

The only "tutorials" for ODE are the examples.
