property on each object of a list euqals, but it should be set different in a loop

I have a problem in my code. the code should build a list of objects from the type robot. each robot should include a serial port and a name (maybe later some more atributes). but at this point, i dont understand, why any robot gets the same name - the name of the last com-port available in the system.

so, can anyone tell me, why ? (nearly at the end on //TBD-mark) and, please feel free to comment or correct the rest also. i know, it is many bloat and maybe partitially not the best code.

so, thank you in advance.

In your class definition for Robot, you've got everything defined as static. This means it will be shared between all instances of that class, and can be accessed as Robot::SerialPort, instead of requiring an instance of Robot, like Robot^ r; r->SerialPort.

Switch all those to be non-static, and I think that'll solve your problem.
