What you seem to want is a singleton [0]. In a few words: the
constructor is private, the instance is in a static variable and a
public getInstance method allows access to the instance. You can also
have a look at the PMA_Response class for a concrete example.

Hi Rouslan,

Thanks for your quick and valuable information.
Singleton pattern definitely use only one object and it save the memory.
I'll use that.

Regards !
