function PEAR::getStaticProperty in Flickr API 5

If you have a class that's mostly/entirely static, and you need static properties, you can use this method to simulate them. Eg. in your method(s) do this: $myVar = &PEAR::getStaticProperty('myclass', 'myVar'); You MUST use a reference, or they will not persist!
