Hi,
If you only need a single object shared across lots of sessions then I
suggest the use of the Singleton design pattern so that only one instance of
the object exists (although you might have many references to it).
Here is a simple example:
public class MySingleton {
private MySingleton singleInstance = new MySingleton();
/* Note that the constructor is 'private' so that
* it cannot be constructed by another class
*/
private MySingleton() {
// constructor stuff
}
/* This is where other classes get a reference
* to the single instance
*/
public MySingleton getInstance() {
return singleInstance;
}
//other methods
}
(Don't forget that because the single instance of this class could be used
by lots of other objects, you need to be careful about concurrency.)
Hope this is helpful, (maybe I misunderstood you question ?).
