Java Singleton Pattern

Question

Edit: Answered - error was method wasn\'t static

I\'m used the Singleton Design Pattern

 public class Singleton {
   private static final Singleton I         


        

Answer 1

Since we doesn't want to allow more than one copy to be accessed. So We need to manually instantiate an object, but we need to keep a reference to the singleton so that subsequent calls to the accessor method can return the singleton (rather than creating a new one). Thats why is

Singleton singleton = Singleton.getInstance();

Correct way to access any singletonObject.
