我的单例访问方法通常是一些变种:

static MyClass *gInstance = NULL;

+ (MyClass *)instance
{
    @synchronized(self)
    {
        if (gInstance == NULL)
            gInstance = [[self alloc] init];
    }

    return(gInstance);
}

我能做些什么来改善这一点呢?


当前回答

对于Objective C类方法,我们可以避免以通常的方式使用单例模式,如下所示:

[[Librarian sharedInstance] openLibrary]

to:

[Librarian openLibrary]

通过将类包装到另一个只有类方法的类中,这样就不会意外地创建重复的实例,因为我们没有创建任何实例!

我在这里写了一篇更详细的博客:)

这也适用于非垃圾收集环境。

@interface MySingleton : NSObject {
}

+(MySingleton *)sharedManager;

@end


@implementation MySingleton

static MySingleton *sharedMySingleton = nil;

+(MySingleton*)sharedManager {
    @synchronized(self) {
        if (sharedMySingleton == nil) {
            [[self alloc] init]; // assignment not done here
        }
    }
    return sharedMySingleton;
}


+(id)allocWithZone:(NSZone *)zone {
    @synchronized(self) {
        if (sharedMySingleton == nil) {
            sharedMySingleton = [super allocWithZone:zone];
            return sharedMySingleton;  // assignment and return on first allocation
        }
    }
    return nil; //on subsequent allocation attempts return nil
}


-(void)dealloc {
    [super dealloc];
}

-(id)copyWithZone:(NSZone *)zone {
    return self;
}


-(id)retain {
    return self;
}


-(unsigned)retainCount {
    return UINT_MAX;  //denotes an object that cannot be release
}


-(void)release {
    //do nothing    
}


-(id)autorelease {
    return self;    
}


-(id)init {
    self = [super init];
    sharedMySingleton = self;

    //initialize here

    return self;
}

@end

根据我下面的另一个回答,我认为你应该这样做:

+ (id)sharedFoo
{
    static dispatch_once_t once;
    static MyFoo *sharedFoo;
    dispatch_once(&once, ^ { sharedFoo = [[self alloc] init]; });
    return sharedFoo;
}

我在sharedInstance上有一个有趣的变化,它是线程安全的,但在初始化后不锁定。我还不确定是否可以按照要求修改顶部的答案,但我将其提出以供进一步讨论:

// Volatile to make sure we are not foiled by CPU caches
static volatile ALBackendRequestManager *sharedInstance;

// There's no need to call this directly, as method swizzling in sharedInstance
// means this will get called after the singleton is initialized.
+ (MySingleton *)simpleSharedInstance
{
    return (MySingleton *)sharedInstance;
}

+ (MySingleton*)sharedInstance
{
    @synchronized(self)
    {
        if (sharedInstance == nil)
        {
            sharedInstance = [[MySingleton alloc] init];
            // Replace expensive thread-safe method 
            // with the simpler one that just returns the allocated instance.
            SEL origSel = @selector(sharedInstance);
            SEL newSel = @selector(simpleSharedInstance);
            Method origMethod = class_getClassMethod(self, origSel);
            Method newMethod = class_getClassMethod(self, newSel);
            method_exchangeImplementations(origMethod, newMethod);
        }
    }
    return (MySingleton *)sharedInstance;
}

你不想在self上同步…因为self对象还不存在!最终锁定一个临时id值。你想要确保没有其他人可以运行类方法(sharedInstance, alloc, allocWithZone:等),所以你需要在类对象上同步:

@implementation MYSingleton

static MYSingleton * sharedInstance = nil;

+( id )sharedInstance {
    @synchronized( [ MYSingleton class ] ) {
        if( sharedInstance == nil )
            sharedInstance = [ [ MYSingleton alloc ] init ];
    }

    return sharedInstance;
}

+( id )allocWithZone:( NSZone * )zone {
    @synchronized( [ MYSingleton class ] ) {
        if( sharedInstance == nil )
            sharedInstance = [ super allocWithZone:zone ];
    }

    return sharedInstance;
}

-( id )init {
    @synchronized( [ MYSingleton class ] ) {
        self = [ super init ];
        if( self != nil ) {
            // Insert initialization code here
        }

        return self;
    }
}

@end
