The joints in ODE don't have (generally speaking) a position or
orientation. The only thing you can get is the position of the joint's
anchor (dJointGet[...]Anchor[2]) or orientation of one of the joint's axes
(dJointGet[...]Axis) - of course if the joint supports it.
What do you mean by the rotation of a joint? And most important - what do
you intend to use it for? :)
