Hi Everyone! Topic: I have a quick question regarding static variables in classes. Background: I'm creating a simple 2D brick breaker game. The Bricks are all the same texture and therefore have the same pixel information. In my Brick Class I have an array of Boolean values that hold if a pixel at x,y on the image is transparent. Question: Instead of having to extract all the information (transparent pixel or not) for every brick I would like to only have to do it once. I was wondering if it was possible to make the array static so if it changes in one instance of a brick it changes in all. Thus, I would only have to get the data once. Other Possible Solutions: 1. My current solution is for every brick I get the pixel information from the texture. 2. Have the array outside of the class - I'd like it to be contained within the class if that's possible. Code: The way my code is organized is there is a GameObject class that has a p_PixelDataArray[x][y] . I would like to override this in the Brick class to be something like static p_PixelDataArray. GameObject bool** p_PixelDataArray Brick : GameObject static bool** p_PixelDataArray Conclusion: I'm not sure if this is correct use of static, or if I'm thinking about it wrong. I'm open for suggestions please! Thank you, -MsWho.
