Class variables x static ones

Question

I am with a doubt. I would like that the variables I have in the c program behave as class variables and it do not occur, tghey behaves more like static variables. By any chance any one knows if its possible that the c internal variables behave like class variables?
I am putting down the helloworld example and the output.
--------- HelloWorld.c -----------------------------
#include <jni.h>
#include "HelloWorld.h"
#include <stdio.h>
int test = 0;
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_HelloWorld_hello(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj) {
printf("Hello world! %d\n", test++);
return;
------HelloWorld.java------------
public class HelloWorld {
public native void hello();
static {
System.loadLibrary("hello");
public static void main(String[] args) {
HelloWorld hw = new HelloWorld();
hw.hello();
hw.hello();
hw = null;
HelloWorld hw2 = new HelloWorld();
System.out.println("-----------");
hw2.hello();
hw2.hello();
---------- output-----
/testeHello @varda : java HelloWorld
Hello world! 0
Hello world! 1
Hello world! 2
Hello world! 3
---- I would like it was.....
/testeHello @varda : java HelloWorld
Hello world! 0
Hello world! 1
Hello world! 0
Hello world! 1

Thanks. I thought in let the variables I need in the Java class... However I think it would not work, I have some pretty complex structures in C that I would need to port to java, without to say I have some sockets and pointers also. First I really don't know if it is feasible, and second even if it is feasible It would be a lot of work, I know I am lazy :). The problem is that some of these need to be global, I really can't do in other way.
Actually what I am doing is exactly create a vector to each global variable I need and I am also putting an ID at the Java class. In this way the C method know who is calling it and uses the id as index of the vector. Well It works, but I think it is pretty ugly (we call this kind of thing as "Hammer" :) and I would like to use some thing better ;).
