Java Singleton Class Example Using Private Constructor

  • We can make constructor as private. So that We can not create an object outside of the class.
  • This property is useful to create singleton class in java.
  • Singleton pattern helps us to keep only one instance of a class at any time.
  • The purpose of singleton is to control object creation by keeping private constructor.

Java Singleton Sample Code

Code:
package com.myjava.constructors;

public class MySingleTon {
    
    private static MySingleTon myObj;
    /**
     * Create private constructor
     */
    private MySingleTon(){
        
    }
    /**
     * Create a static method to get instance.
     */
    public static MySingleTon getInstance(){
        if(myObj == null){
            myObj = new MySingleTon();
        }
        return myObj;
    }
    
    public void getSomeThing(){
        // do something here
        System.out.println("I am here....");
    }
    
    public static void main(String a[]){
        MySingleTon st = MySingleTon.getInstance();
        st.getSomeThing();
    }
}

Other Constructor Examples

Inner class and Anonymous class
Inner class: classes defined in other classes, including those defined in methods are called inner classes. An inner class can have any accessibility including private.

Anonymous class: Anonymous class is a class defined inside a method without a name and is instantiated and declared in the same place and cannot have explicit constructors.
Famous Quotations
Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.
