Thank you

I checked it doesn't work
It seems that as T Lee Davidson said a STATIC statement should be added

With a timer, you're right that it doesn't make sense
But let's say it will be h_connection
that you open it once in CLASS1
And in the rest of the CLASSS you want to perform operations on the h_connction
such as inserting a record, deleting a record, etc.
And I want to do it through CLASS2 or CLASS3
