Any use of a Singleton<> template

8 Feb 2002

      I currently working on a Singleton<> template, which currently has 
these features.

1) Supports the same interface/concepts as auto_ptr<> 
2) One Line option to create a working singleton 
3) Possible to use different Singletons of same type using names 
(simultaneously) 
4) Possible to store different Singleton Objects under the same name 
(not simultaneously) 
5) Possible to Release By Reference (Optional, Not Default) 
6) Automatic Cleanup at program termination (Optional, Default) 

It can be used in the following manner:

  class SingletonObject {
    void someFunction();
    ...
  };
  Singleton<SingletonObject> singleton;

  singleton->someFunction();

Is there any interrest in such a class?
