And now, the State Pattern.
http://www.fluffycat.com/PHP-Design-Patterns/State/
In the state pattern a class will change it's behavior based on
circumstances. In my example a subclass of a specific interface may
actually switch the class being used to another subclass of the same
interface.
When I first drew up this example yesterday evening, based on one I did
a few years back in Java, I was pretty enthusiastic about it. Now, I'm
not sure I like it 100%, and may still tinker with it. I guess this
proves that these are perhaps "living examples", just my best try at an
example of a given pattern, are not set in stone, and may change. I
also have a comments section with each pattern, so please feel free to
point out flaws or applaud any examples if you like.
