[Geoserver-devel] Invitation to Survey on Design Patterns

Dear GeoServer Developer,

We are two students from the University of Groningen doing research on the impact of design patterns on software quality attributes. As part of this research we are conducting a survey among software developers. We would like to include your perspective on this subject and hope you would be willing to participate in this survey. The survey will take approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

To complete the survey, please go to the following link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Y9XCWHB.

Thank you in advance; your input is very valuable to us.

Thanks for your time,

P. Bouwers (p.bouwers@anonymised.com)

My input would be, allow people to qualify the answers. I've stopped going
though the review when looking
at the questions for singleton pattern, because there is now way to provide
context to the responses.

We work with Spring, while beans registered there are not coded as
singletons normally (e.g., they don't have
private constructors, they don't have static methods) they are instantiated
by Spring as singletons and used
a such, that is, there is only one instance of the bean in the whole
system, everything needing it interacts
with that instance, and as such, it carries global state and needs to be
coded with thread safety in mind.

Cheers
Andrea
