[Paraview] Can ParaView Modules Have Static Variables?

[Kent Eschenberg]

Can a ParaView module have static variables?

I'm creating a new filter and initialize the static varaibles in the header file, after the class definition, with lines like

int vtkMyNewClass::myVariable = 0;

All works well until linking pvbatch when it says that these variables have multiple definitions in libvtkPVFilters.a and in libvtkPVFiltersCS.a.

Thanks!
