Question

Answer 1

You cannot have a ISingleton interface for two reasons:

1. Interfaces cannot have static members
2. Interfaces cannot contain constructors

You could have a ASingleton abstract class if you liked.

Answer 2

You can't, basically. Interfaces can't contain static methods, and can't put any constraints on what kind of constructors are available.

You might be interested in my notion of static interfaces, which would allow the idea of enforcing a particular static member to be present - but it wouldn't allow you to enforce the absence of a constructor.
