Singleton class is a class in which only one instance of the object exist at any point of time. So a Singleton class is basically used when we want to restrict instantiation of a class to only one object. "Application" class, print spooler, database connection are examples of a singleton class. In a singleton class the constructor is made private and a private static is declared that reference of same class. A static variable is used for instantiating the class. Singleton class are not cloneable.
