title: Class/Static Constants in Delphi
body: <p>In Delphi, I want to be able to create an private object that's associated with a class, and access it from all instances of that class.  In Java, I'd use:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class MyObject {
      private static final MySharedObject mySharedObjectInstance = new MySharedObject();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Or, if MySharedObject needed more complicated initialization, in Java I could instantiate and initialize it in a static initializer block.</p>
  
  <p>(You might have guessed...  I know my Java but I'm rather new to Delphi...)</p>
  
  <p>Anyway, I don't want to instantiate a new MySharedObject each time I create an instance of MyObject, but I do want a MySharedObject to be accessible from each instance of MyObject.  (It's actually logging that has spurred me to try to figure this out - I'm using Log4D and I want to store a TLogLogger as a class variable for each class that has logging functionality.)</p>
  
  <p>What's the neatest way to do something like this in Delphi?</p>
