C Function Question

Does anyone know if a function written in C and linked into the backend in a
shared library with a statically declared structure, maintain that data for
the life of the backend process such that, when the function is called again,
the structure data is intact?

Thanks for any insight anyone can give...

Yes, that should work.

Thanks for the reply Laurenze. I put together a small test case scenario and,
indeed, it does work as I had hoped and as you indicated.

Thanks for the help...
