Hello All,
If I create a class based on Singleton design pattern, are the methods in
this class thread-safe?
Consider the following class:
Public class Singleton
{
public int Add(int a, int b)
{
}
}
If suppose I have a request A which calls the method with params as 1 and 2
and another request simultaneously calls the method with params as 3 and 4
Is there a possibility that the params are overrided as follows
--> Request A calls the method with params as 1 and 4
--> Request A calls the method with params as 3 and 2
Thanks for your suggestions!!!

it depends on the code. if your class contains no shareded variables, and
calls no unmanged code, it will be threadsafe.

Parameters are passed to a method using a stack. Each thread maintains it's
own stack so that the parameters are not shared among threads.

1) Shared variables
2) Unmanaged code
Are these the necessary and sufficient conditions for singleton class
methods to be thread-safe?

these are the only cases that cause a singleton to not be threadsafe.
1) you can use unmaned code if you know its threadsafe
2) you can use shared/statics if you sync, and you expect the same data
across all threads.

I would be very interested in knowing how the following C++ multi-instance

former leads to less coding, so unless I can somehow package the

I wish to build a framework for our developers that will include a singleton

But it can not be a base class because it has a private constructor and

I thought maybe a Template can be use for that, but C# does not support
Templates (will be C# generics in mid 2005).
Does anyone have a solution on how the singleton pattern can be written, in
C#, as a framework/ infrastructure class, so users can use this...

At the beginning of my C# days (about 6 months ago) I learned about the
Singleton pattern and implemented for Reference data, such as the kind that
appears in an Options dialog box. My Singleton code looks like this:
public sealed class Reference

private static readonly Reference instance = new Reference();
// Make the default constructor private, so that nothing can directly
create it.

Design Pattern: The Singleton
Overview
Use the Singleton Design Pattern when you want to have only one instance of a class. This single instance must have a single global point of access. That is, regardless of where the object is hidden, everyone needs access to it.
The global point of access is the object's Instance() method.
Individual users need to be prevented from creating their own instances of the Singleton.

ever thought of this pattern before):
