[android-developers] Re: Singletons in Android .... Final solution?

Romain,
I have have the following code

public class SandboxApplication extends Application {
public static enum Romain {
SINGLETON;
private final long now = System .currentTimeMillis();
@Override public String toString() { return super.toString() +
"@" + now; }
}

@Override public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Log.d("####", Romain.SINGLETON.toString());
}

I am quite certain that I have seen this application log different
times, from that log statement, over the life of the application.
Oddly, I'm fairly certain that I've seen it log different times even
*without* an intervening call to onTerminate.

I'm not claiming this is a bug, at all. It does appear to mean,
though, that you can't reliably squirrel stuff away in the application
object and expect it to be there when you come back.
