Singleton Pattern

Design Pattern->Creational Pattern->Singleton.

The singleton pattern is a design pattern that restricts the Instantiation of a class to one object. It can be used as a global variable. It can be serialized for later purpose. I haven't seen any project without Singleton class.

There are many ways to write Singleton class. Here I will be giving a simple implementation in C# as well as Theradsafe.

Class: SingleTon.cs

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Threading;

 

namespace SingleTonSample

{

    sealed class SingleTon

    {

        private static SingleTon single = new SingleTon();

        int myUniqueKey = 0;

 

        public int UniqueKey()

        {

            return Interlocked.Increment(ref myUniqueKey);

        }

 

        public static SingleTon Instance

        {

            get { return single; }

        }

 

        private SingleTon(){ }

 

        public void PrintMe()

        {

            Console.WriteLine("Singleton Class Testing");

        }

    }

}

Class: Program.cs
 

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

 

namespace SingleTonSample

{

    class Program

    {

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            SingleTon.Instance.PrintMe();

 

            int Value = SingleTon.Instance.UniqueKey();

 

            Console.WriteLine("Unique Value =" + Value);

        }

    }

}
