A simple implementation of Singleton pattern

Singleton

public class Singleton {
	// Private constructor prevents instantiation from other classes
	private Singleton() { }
 
	/**
	* SingletonHolder is loaded on the first execution of Singleton.getInstance() 
	* or the first access to SingletonHolder.INSTANCE, not before.
	*/
	private static class SingletonHolder { 
		public static final Singleton INSTANCE = new Singleton();
	}
 
	public static Singleton getInstance() {
		return SingletonHolder.INSTANCE;
	}
}
