    Initializing a static varible

    If I have a class that has a private static varible (say and int statInt) how do I initialize it. I can't do it in constructor because it exists for all class obj...

    What is the correct syntax for this?

    Code:
    class a
{
private:
   static int v;
public:
   void m();
};

int a::v = 0;

void a::m()
{

}
    Z.

    And if I placed the static varible in the public section could I do a::v = 0 from my main? If so does it require an instance of the class to be instanciated? Then would I use the the . operator?

    No, it's the same syntax no matter what the visibility is.
