Wouldn't singletons need to be multi-threaded otherwise you will get probems with concurrency. Would a pooled resource pattern make more sense if you validators/converters are costly to create?
_____ From: Iordanov, Borislav (GIC) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 08, 2006 12:48 PM To: MyFaces Discussion Subject: singleton validators and converters Hi, Is there a standard way/practice to have singleton validators and converters? Those are mostly stateless and in a large application with aggressive input validation, it would make sense to avoid creating them on the fly each time and for each user. Thanks, Bolerio
