Registry

Purpose

To implement a central storage for objects often used throughout the application, is typically implemented using an abstract class with only static methods (or using the Singleton pattern)

Examples

• Zend Framework: Zend_Registry holds the application's logger object, front controller etc.
• Yii Framework: CWebApplication holds all the application components, such as CWebUser, CUrlManager, etc.
