Singleton Pattern Script (4 KB)
applies the Singleton design pattern to a selected
Rose98. The selected class is modified by adding a
private static attribute called _instance, and a public
static Instance() operation is added. C++ code generation
properties are also Modified. The pattern is from the Gamma,
