Singleton Inheritance

Question

How do I inherit from a singleton class into other classes that need the same functionality? Would something like this make any sense?

Answer 1

You can inherit from singleton and for "reuse" or some fine tuning using templates (C++) or generics (C#.NET).

I've posted in my blog (www.devartplus.com) a serie of posts in this subject:

1) Basic singleton inheritance in C#.NET

2) Thread-safe singleton inheritance in C#.NET

3) Several singleton implementations in C++
