The siglton does'nt need the *Class* to be static but the *instance* attribute. So as soon as you do .getInstance(), the instance attribute of TemplateCache is affected to a new TemplatesCache and will stay as long as the app live if you don't don't re-affect 'instance' to another object (but you must not). By the way and to come back to the true subject of the list , I coded such a cache for xslt Templates, but I don't make it a singleton as I want severals caches for each struts module context. So the unicity of each instance is managed via a hashtable referenced in the ServletContext by a key like "TemplatesCaches".
