Thread: Static member func clone?

Hi, i ran into a really weird problem:

Take the following code:

Code:

class CExample{
        static CMemoryBuffer<CPlayerDescription>* Allocator()
        {
	static CMemoryBuffer<CPlayerDescription>* instance = new CMemoryBuffer<CPlayerDescription>();
	return instance;
        }
};

Now, i have another class within 2 member functions. Both functions do a call to CExample::Allocator to retrieve the allocator. However, weird enough they both got their own instances.

Is this normal behaviour? because the method is static, shouldn't it return the same instance?
