Guillaume,

Since bInitialized is a global variable, you can set it to true or 
false at any point in your logic.  To free the DoSomething() function 
again, simply execute:
         bInitialized = false;
in another function.

If more of your functions have these on/off switches, you might 
consider creating custom objects in which the function is a method 
and the on/off switch is a public property.
