C++

So here's what I got. I have a working program that in the main() that creates an array of 5 pointer objects of the Class Resistor. What I can't figure out is how to use a static variable (shown below as resNumber) to limit the number of class objects created to say 3 (just for argument). The requirement is for that I'm having issues meeting is spelled out below. Everything else I'm good on...

#include "Resistor.h"

int Resistor::resNumber = 0;

Resistor::Resistor()
{
   // not random for some reason...
   nominalRes = rand() % 10000 + 1000; //should set random number between 1,000 and 10,000
   nominalTol = 0.05;
   resNumber++;
   resistorName = "Resistor";//would like to add resNumber to the endof this...
}

//not full main or class obviously...

void main(void)
{
   srand(GetTickCount());
   Resistor *ptRes[5];

}

Explanation / Answer

Static variable will be invoked before the execution of constructor and it
