Automagic instantiation of singletons?


  • Subject: Automagic instantiation of singletons?

Is there any way to persuade a singleton object to create itself? I have a few singleton objects that need to exist throughout the lifetime of the application, and am currently instantiating them in my application controller's applicationDidFinishLaunching: method.

It would be nice if I didn't have to explicitly do this. My initial thought was that you could do it through the singletons' +(void) initialize method - but of course, this isn't called at application startup - it's only called the first time you try and access the object, so it still needs to be manually set up.


Any other suggestions? I suspect it's not actually possible, but thought I'd throw it out to the obj-c gurus and see what they have to say...
