You can do it with 7 lines of code in plain C/Win32 api (with undocumented (or not) native controls)

In your main frame, you have a menu handler:
void CMainFrame::OnToolsOptions ()
{
   CMyOptionsDlg *pDlg = new CMyOptionsDlg; // make a new options dlg - it will self delete.
   CMyApp *pApp = (CMyApp *) AfxGetApp ();
   dlg->m_pOptions = &(pApp->m_Options); // give the dialog a pointer to the options struct.

   dlg->Create (this);  // make the dialog window
}

void COptionDlg::DoDataExchange (CDataExchange *pDX)
{
   ASSERT(m_pOtions);
   if (!m_pOptions) return;

   // get/set a double from an edit box
   DDX_Text (pDX, IDC_XMIN, m_pOptions->xmin);
   ...
}

// Create only 3 objects in class demo.

#include <iostream.h>

static int nCount = 0;

class Demo
{
public:
    Demo()
    {
        nCount++;
    }
};

bool IsMax()
{
    if(nCount>3)
        return true;
    else
        return false;
}
    
int main()
{
    // here is 4 objects.
    Demo d1,d2,d3,d4;
    if(IsMax())
    {
        cout<<"error"<<endl;
    }
    return 0;
}
