  <h1 align="center">Singleton Pool</h1>

  <h2>Introduction</h2>

  <p>singleton_pool.hpp provides a template class <span class=
  "code">singleton_pool</span>, which provides access to a <span class=
  "code">pool</span> as a singleton object. For information on other
  pool-based interfaces, see <a href="../interfaces.html">the other pool
  interfaces</a>.</p>

  <h2>Synopsis</h2>
  <pre class="code">
template &lt;typename Tag, unsigned RequestedSize,
    typename UserAllocator = default_user_allocator_new_delete&gt;
struct singleton_pool
{
  public:
    typedef Tag tag;
    typedef UserAllocator user_allocator;
    typedef typename pool&lt;UserAllocator&gt;::size_type size_type;
    typedef typename pool&lt;UserAllocator&gt;::difference_type difference_type;

    static const unsigned requested_size = RequestedSize;

  private:
    static pool&lt;size_type&gt; p; // exposition only!

    singleton_pool();

  public:
    static bool is_from(void * ptr);

    static void * malloc();
    static void * ordered_malloc();
    static void * ordered_malloc(size_type n);

    static void free(void * ptr);
    static void ordered_free(void * ptr);
    static void free(void * ptr, std::size_t n);
    static void ordered_free(void * ptr, size_type n);

    static bool release_memory();
    static bool purge_memory();
};
</pre>

  <h2>Notes</h2>

  <p>The underlying pool <span class="code">p</span> referenced by the static
  functions in <span class="code">singleton_pool</span> is actually declared
  in a way that it is:</p>

  <ul>
    <li>Thread-safe if there is only one thread running before main() begins
    and after main() ends -- all of the static functions of <span class=
    "code">singleton_pool</span> synchronize their access to <span class=
    "code">p</span>.</li>

    <li>Guaranteed to be constructed before it is used -- thus, the simple
    static object in the synopsis above would actually be an incorrect
    implementation. The actual <a href=
    "../implementation/singleton_pool.html">implementation</a> to guarantee
    this is considerably more complicated.</li>
  </ul>

  <p>Note that a different underlying pool <span class="code">p</span> exists
  for each different set of template parameters, including <a href=
  "../implementation/singleton_pool.html">implementation-specific
  ones</a>.</p>

  <h2>Template Parameters</h2>

  <h3>Tag</h3>

  <p>The <span class="code">Tag</span> template parameter allows different
  unbounded sets of singleton pools to exist. For example, the <a href=
  "pool_alloc.html">pool allocators</a> use two tag classes to ensure that
  the two different allocator types never share the same underlying singleton
  pool.</p>

  <p><span class="code">Tag</span> is never actually used by <span class=
  "code">singleton_pool</span>.</p>

  <h3>RequestedSize</h3>

  <p>The requested size of memory chunks to allocate. This is passed as a
  constructor parameter to the underlying <span class="code">pool</span>.
  Must be greater than 0.</p>

  <h3>UserAllocator</h3>

  <p>Defines the method that the underlying <span class="code">pool</span>
  will use to allocate memory from the system. See <a href=
  "user_allocator.html">User Allocators</a> for details.</p>
