Abstract
One or more of the classes is defined using an attribute or keyword that indicates that the one or more classes may be defined as singleton classes or non-singleton classes (a class that may be instantiated more than once). A compiler system converts the class to a singleton class when the compiler system receives a command or request indicating that the class is to be defined as a singleton class. Various optimizations may be performed when one or more of the classes in the source code are defined as singleton classes. The compiler system may not convert the class to a singleton class when the compiler system receives a command or request indicating that the class is to be defined as a non-singleton class.
