What should my Objective-C singleton look like? [closed]

Answer 1

static mySingleton *obj=nil;

@implementation mySingleton

-(id) init {
    if(obj != nil){     
        [self release];
        return obj;
    } else if(self = [super init]) {
        obj = self;
    }   
    return obj;
}

+(mySingleton*) getSharedInstance {
    @synchronized(self){
        if(obj == nil) {
            obj = [[mySingleton alloc] init];
        }
    }
    return obj;
}

- (id)retain {
    return self;
}

- (id)copy {
    return self;
}

- (unsigned)retainCount {
    return UINT_MAX;  // denotes an object that cannot be released
}

- (void)release {
    if(obj != self){
        [super release];
    }
    //do nothing
}

- (id)autorelease {
    return self;
}

-(void) dealloc {
    [super dealloc];
}
@end
