static-instance 0.1.1

# static-instance

The `static-instance` crate provides a macro used to create safe
static instances of objects. This was created in order to replicate
the behavior of a static class member used frequently in C++. This
allows exporting of rust to C via FFI a whole lot easier when the
library needs to keep track of states.

#### NOTE
It is still up to you to use the data inside the instance safely. The
data inside the instance is not thread safe unless you make it thread
safe.


```rust
#[macro_use]
use static_instance::{Instance, New};
use std::sync::{Arc, Mutex};

#[derive(Clone)]
struct SimpleCounter {
    counter: Arc<Mutex<Box<i32>>>
}

impl SimpleCounter {

    fn add(&mut self, value: i32) {
        let mut data = self.count.lock().unwrap();
        *data += 1;
    }

    fn get_value(&self) -> i32 {
        let data: i32 = self.count.lock().unwrap();
        return (*data).clone();
    }

    fn print(&self) {
        let data: i32 = self.count.lock().unwrap();
        println!("{}", *data);
    }
}

impl New for SimpleCounter {
    fn new() -> SimpleCounter {
        SimpleCounter {
            counter: Arc::new(Mutex::new(Box::new(0)))
    }
}

CreateInstance!(SimpleCounter);

fn main() {
    SimpleCounter::instance().add(30);
    SimpleCounter::instance().print();

}
