Hi, I have just moved company and in my old company I used to use a RogueWave singleton class. I was looking to use the boost singleton class. However after looking at the implementation I saw there was no private default copy constructor or assignment operator. Does this not mean that I could create multiple instances of my singleton via assignment or some other form of copying? I saw some discussion of a better singleton representation in boost and I was wondering what the status of this was, and I was also wondering what other people use for their singletons?
