[PD] [flext] Inheriting access to variables declared once in a library

[Thomas Grill]

Hi Christian,
although it would be beneficial to have some example code, i would 
guess you need the following:
Set a static counter to 0 in the beginning, when an object is created, 
check if the counter is 0 and create your "static" instances - 
increment the counter in any case.
In object destructors, decrement the counter. If it has reached 0, 
destroy your "static" instances.

greetings,
Thomas
