/**
 * Two popular singleton templates.
 * 
 * Since not much code is generated, the annotation also acts as documentation.
 * 

 * With lombok:
 * 
 * 
 * @Singleton
 * class MySingleton {
 * 	public MySingleton() {
 * 	}
 * }
 * 
 * 
 * Vanilla Java:
 * 
 *  * enum MySingleton {
 * 	INSTANCE;
 * 	MySingleton() {
 * 	}
 * 
 * 	public static MySingleton getInstance() {
 * 		return INSTANCE;
 * 	}
 * }
 * 
 * 
 * Note: If you don't like the enum approach, try the holder approach using

 * @Singleton(style = {@link Singleton.Style#HOLDER}).
