If I understand it correctly, your implementation avoids the repeated -init call problem by raising an exception if [[MySingleton alloc] init] is called by client code. This is not the problem we were trying to solve. We wanted to allow [[MySingleton alloc] init] to be called as for any other class. I see no point in all that overhead just to ensure that client code never attempts to do that.


Moreover, your implementation still has all the other problems I mentioned about the Apple's sample code implementation, so I really don't see what the point is here.

You're making this too difficult for yourself.

All you need to do [with my code, referenced above] to get the behavior you want is comment out all [self doesNotRecognizeSelector:] and [NSException raise:] messages.

Try it... sheesh!  ;)
