He said "static member", not "static class" or "static base class". Only
objects can be declared static, classes can't. You _do_ know the difference
between a class and an object don't you? :-)

What you want is this:

     class topLevel {
       public:
         static VBase vb;
     };

     static VBase topLevel::vb;
