hello guys,

i've got a little problem here. The situation is:
i'm drawing a shape using glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP,...)
as an example when drawing 2 triangles i have 4 vertexes.

Next i want to shade it. i set up an array of normals to use with glNormalPointer.
For 4 vertexes in vertex array how much normals must i have in normals array? is it 4 (one per each vertex in array) or 6 (one per each vertex in every triangle)?

Any help will be appreciated.

Okay solution found
There should be exactly 1 normal in normal array for a vertex in a vertex array, i.e. if i have 4 vertices i should have 4 normals.

Going further i want to share with you a problem that i had and successfully solved (this might help someone).
i was drawing some polygons using
gl.glDrawArrays(GL10.GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 100, 50); //notice that the offset is 100
before drawing i was applying normals array and guess what? lighting was really bad. the thing was that i had to shift normals array for the same offset that i use for drawing (in my case i just left first 100 items in the normals array empty, and filled normals starting from 100).

That solved everything, lighting now works great.
