  • So how come if I change the static library into a .dll, it then works? Do ALL .dlls share the same heap? Commented Dec 13, 2012 at 23:43
  • @proteneer, it has nothing to do with the heap - static variables are stored in a separate location near the code. Putting it into a DLL just ensures that only one copy exists. Commented Dec 13, 2012 at 23:45
