Description 

Author

This class can be used to create object of a class that only has 1 instance.

Applications need to create a sub-class of this class to make that class only have one instance of the sub-class.

Attempts to create new objects of the same class after when the first instance of that class is created, will return the same object.

The class also provides a function to destroy the only instance of the singleton sub-class.

Singleton

Intro

This class implements basic singleton pattern.

Usage

Using singleton behaviour in your applications is so simple as it can be. Just extend the class Singleton, and enjoy using it!

See the code:

// including all necessary files
require_once( dirname( dirname( dirname( __FILE__ ) ) ).'/conf/conf.php' );
require_once( $MEZON_PATH.'/vendor/singleton/singleton.php' );

// creatingyour own class
class   MyClass extends Singleton
{
    // methods and their implementations
}

That's all!

You can see the Template Engine class for real usage of this pattern.
