Singleton class model

 / Published in: C++
 

Note: This doesn't work in multi-threaded environments, check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_pattern#C.2B.2B

Singleton class model then: SingletonClass *pSC = SingletonClass::get_singleton_instance(); pSC->any_public_function(); or: SingletonClass::get_singleton_instance()->any_public_function();

at the end of the program don't forget: SingletonClass::destroy();

Seeing how this is a "Popular" code snippet, I wanted to warn everybody, that it is not good for multithreaded environment. For more details: http://www.aristeia.com/Papers/DDJJulAug2004revised.pdf
