Hi,
In some web site when i was looking about Static vs Singleton
difference i found the following
terms.
"Creation of several subclasses of the original Singleton class"
Is it possible to create a subclass for Singleton Class
Regards
uuk
Maybe try something like this:
abstract class A
{
protected A singleton=null;
public abstract A getInstance();
}
class B extends A
{
private B()
{
}
public A getInstance()
{
if (singleton==null)
singleton=new B();
return singleton;
}
}
class C extends A
{
private C()
{
}
public A getInstance()
{
if (singleton==null)
singleton=new C();
return singleton;
}
}
I think for this to be a singleton, the getInstance method needs to be
static, in which case you could not override it via inheritance.
