Given a point P(x1,y1,z1) in 3D space and its orientation what would be the co-ordinates of other end of the line of length L, if it starts at P(x1,y1,z1). The rotation of point P(x1,y1,z1) takes place about its local axis.
Kindly help

Kindly read the links I gave on your previous post, as it is essentially the same question.
You'll need to construct a rotation matrix for the orientation and then do something like:
P2 = P1 + mat * (0, 0, L)
