Unless the factory is being called by reflection, there certainly will be a reference to it - from the caller (the class reference in your line of code above). If the caller is under the same classloader as the factory, then it won't matter - but in that case it wouldn't matter if there were no factory involved and it was just a direct reference to the singleton. All the factory does is provide another layer of indirection, nothing else. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
