The Bungeni Editor is Drafting and Markup framework for XML production built on the OpenOffice.org platform. It supports different legislative document types (e.g hansard, bill) and supports definition of custom types, and allows markup and storage of metadata within the ODF document.
This is not an issue as such but just a minor observation.
Most of the classes considered to be Singleton classes are not truly Singleton.
To ensure that we adhere to the true specifications of creating Singleton
classes, we may need to do the following:
- Always make sure that the class constructor is made private to prevent client
objects from creating instances of the class by invoking its constructor. At
the same time, other methods inside the class will have access to the private
constructor.
- Provide a public interface, in the form of a static method 'getInstance()',
for clients to be able to get access to an instance of the class. This public
method must be static for a client to be able to access this method without
having to instantiate the class.
The second requirement has been met in most of the classes and not the first.
So whenever you are going through the code, kindly make the changes wherever
the developer might have not.
