----------------------------------------------------------- From: prasanth Message 5 in Discussion Hi, I have taken a look at your code, and it depends on what IsAllowed *actually* does. Two threads will certainly be able to call it at the same time, but for many things that's just fine. If, on the other hand, IsAllowed needs to read and write some variables from the singleton, it may *not* be threadsafe. Put it this way: being part of a singleton isn't relevant here. If it would normally be okay for two threads to execute your method at a time, that's fine - otherwise you'll need locking just as you would elsewhere. So as long as you don't use any instance variable you are fine, if you use an instance variable you should take care of synchronizating the access to it. You should take a look at the attached document about singleton. It explain in details how to make it thread safe in the more efficient way.
