question about how objects are passed as arguments in Python

[Aryeh Weiss]

If I have an ROI manager define, as in

rm = RoiManager().getInstance()

and then it gets passed as an argument, as in

result = someFunction (rm, other args...)

will a new local copy of the ROI manager be constructed inside
someFunction every time it is called?

If so is there a way to make the ROI manager global and not have it
created locally each time someFunction is called?

I tried something like "global rm" inside the function where rm is
defined , but that did not work.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
