`Singleton`_
============
**THIS IS CONSIDERED TO BE AN ANTI-PATTERN! FOR BETTER TESTABILITY AND
MAINTAINABILITY USE DEPENDENCY INJECTION!**
Purpose
-------
To have only one instance of this object in the application that will
handle all calls.
Examples
--------
- DB Connector
- Logger (may also be a Multiton if there are many log files for
several purposes)
- Lock file for the application (there is only one in the filesystem
...)
