Specify the $x$, $y$, and $z$ coordinates of the new current normal. The initial value of the current normal is the unit vector, (0, 0, 1).

glNormal3bv( const GLbyte *v )

void glNormal3sv( const GLshort *v )
PARAMETERS
|
v |
Specifies a pointer to an array of three elements: the $x$, $y$, and $z$ coordinates of the new current normal. |
DESCRIPTION
The current
normal is set to the given coordinates whenever
glNormal is issued. Byte, short, or integer arguments
are converted to floating-point
with a linear mapping that maps the most positive
representable integer value to 1.0, and the most negative
representable integer value to −1.0.
Normals specified with glNormal need not have unit length. If GL_NORMALIZE is enabled, then normals of any length specified with glNormal are normalized after transformation. If GL_RESCALE_NORMAL is enabled, normals are scaled by a scaling factor derived from the modelview matrix. GL_RESCALE_NORMAL requires that the originally specified normals were of unit length, and that the modelview matrix contain only uniform scales for proper results. To enable and disable normalization, call glEnable and glDisable with either GL_NORMALIZE or GL_RESCALE_NORMAL. Normalization is initially disabled.
NOTES
The current normal can be updated at any time. In particular, glNormal can be called between a call to glBegin and the corresponding call to glEnd.
