Enforcing Singleton per Thread with Thread-Local Storage
Learn how to enforce the Singleton design pattern per thread in Python using thread-local storage to ensure each thread maintains its own Singleton instance. Enforcing Singleton Per Thread in Python Using Thread-Local Storage In this tutorial, we explore how to enforce the Singleton design pattern per thread in Python. This approach ensures that each thread maintains its own unique instance of a Singleton object, which is particularly useful in multi-threaded applications that require thread-specific data isolation. Why Thread-Local Singleton? Normally, the Singleton pattern restricts instantiation to a single object globally. However, in multi-threaded programs, there are scenarios where each thread needs its own Singleton instance, isolated from other threads. This prevents shared state conflicts and race conditions. What is Thread-Local Storage? Thread-local storage (TLS) allows data to be stored such that each thread...
