Construct On First Use Idiom 0
The 'Construct On First Use Idiom' is a programming technique used to ensure that a static object is initialized only once upon its first use, often to address issues related to static initialization order and thread safety. This idiom leverages local static variables within a function to achieve lazy initialization, thereby guaranteeing that the object is constructed in a controlled manner the first time it is accessed.
