Directx 11 rendering issue, no triangle displayed - c++

Question

I'm learning DirectX 11 and I'm trying to render a simple cube, unfortunately my code doesn't work, it simply doesn't render nothing... no errors, no warnings... The only thing displayed is the window with the specified clear color. I'm also very sure that the code is executed entirely.
This is the header of my specialized class:
#pragma once
#include "DirectxApp.h"
#include <DirectXMath.h>
#include "DirectxUtils.h"
struct Vertex
{
DirectX::XMFLOAT3 Position;
DirectX::XMFLOAT4 Color;
};
struct TransformationMatrix
{
DirectX::XMMATRIX worldViewProjMatrix;
};
class MyDirectxApp : public DirectxApp
{
private:
ID3D11Buffer* m_vertexBuffer;
ID3D11Buffer* m_indexBuffer;
ID3D11Buffer* m_worldViewProjBuffer;
ID3D11RasterizerState* m_rasterizerState;
ID3D11InputLayout* m_inputLayout;
ID3D11VertexShader* m_vertexShader;
ID3D11PixelShader* m_pixelShader;
DirectX::XMMATRIX m_worldMatrix;
DirectX::XMMATRIX m_viewMatrix;
DirectX::XMMATRIX m_projMatrix;
TransformationMatrix m_transformationMatrix;
float m_theta;
float m_phi;
float m_radius;
public:
MyDirectxApp(HINSTANCE hInstance,
int width,
int height,
LPWSTR windowName = L"",
bool enable4xMsaa = true,
int xCoord = CW_USEDEFAULT,
int yCoord = CW_USEDEFAULT
);
virtual bool Init();
virtual void OnFrame();
virtual ~MyDirectxApp(void);
};
And this is the cpp (the init method of the super class initializes the window and the basic components of DirectX, see later):
#include "MyDirectxApp.h"
using namespace DirectX;
MyDirectxApp::MyDirectxApp(HINSTANCE hInstance,
int width,
int height,
LPWSTR windowName,
bool enable4xMsaa,
int xCoord,
int yCoord
) : DirectxApp(hInstance, width, height, windowName, enable4xMsaa, xCoord, yCoord)

XMMATRIX matrixIdentity = XMMatrixIdentity();
m_worldMatrix = matrixIdentity;
m_viewMatrix = matrixIdentity;
m_projMatrix = matrixIdentity;
m_transformationMatrix.worldViewProjMatrix = matrixIdentity;
m_theta = 1.5f * DirectX::XM_PI;
m_phi = 0.25f* DirectX::XM_PI;
m_radius = 5.0f;
}

return false;

The VertexShader is really simple, it only does the world-view-projection transformation:
cbuffer cbPerObject
{
float4x4 worldViewProjection;
};
//input data structure
struct VertexInput
{
float3 iPosition : POSITION;
float4 iColor : COLOR;
};
//output data
struct VertexOutput
{
float4 oPosition : SV_POSITION; //system-value-position is a special semantic name
float4 oColor : COLOR;
};
VertexOutput main(VertexInput vertexInput)
{
VertexOutput vertexOutput;
//transform world-view-projection
vertexOutput.oPosition = mul(float4(vertexInput.iPosition, 1.0f), worldViewProjection);
vertexOutput.oColor = vertexInput.iColor;
return vertexOutput;
}
The PixelShader is even simpler:
//input data structure
//must match the vertexShader output
struct PixelShaderInput
{
float4 iPosition : SV_POSITION;
float4 iColor : COLOR;
};
float4 main(PixelShaderInput pixelShaderInput) : SV_TARGET //system-value-target means the output must match the renderTarget format
{
return pixelShaderInput.iColor;
}

I appreciate any hint to solve this problem!
Thanks in advance
EDIT
To the rendering pipeline arrives only one triangle, the VertexShader is executed but not the PixelShader, and then dies...

Answer 1

It may not be the only problem, but you should transpose the matrices before sending them to the shader. You can do that by calling XMMatrixTranspose( matrix ).
(I see now that someone already mentioned it)
