Horrible code comes in all languages.

Yes, I can. PHP is a language that's easy to learn and easy to use,
which is why so many choose to use it.

Actually I chose it because it's cross-platform, stable, powerful, tried
and tested and specifically designed to do what I'm doing with it. I'd
like to see where you collected your statistical data on PHP adoption.

IMO, it's not much more horrible than C++ or Java; it all depends on the
programmer who makes use of it.

My PHP code is pretty... as is my C++ code.

Blame the Indian not the arrows.

You mean like this?

public interface MessageStrategy {
public void sendMessage();
}

public abstract class AbstractStrateg yFactory {
public abstract MessageStrategy createStrategy( MessageBody mb);
}

public class MessageBody {
Object payload;

public Object getPayload() {
return payload;
}

public void configure(Objec t obj) {
payload = obj;
}

public void send(MessageStr ategy ms) {
ms.sendMessage( );
}
}

public class DefaultFactory extends AbstractStrateg yFactory {
private DefaultFactory( ) {}

static DefaultFactory instance;

public static AbstractStrateg yFactory getInstance() {
if (null==instance )
instance = new DefaultFactory( );
return instance;
}

public MessageStrategy createStrategy( final MessageBody mb) {
return new MessageStrategy () {
MessageBody body = mb;

public void sendMessage() {
Object obj = body.getPayload ();
System.out.prin tln(obj.toStrin g());
}
};
}
}

public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
MessageBody mb = new MessageBody();
mb.configure("H ello World!");
AbstractStrateg yFactory asf = DefaultFactory. getInstance();
MessageStrategy strategy = asf.createStrat egy(mb);
mb.send(strateg y);

Sorry, I should have included my source:

Somebody else referred to that as the "Gang of Four Job Security

Not at all. Horrible programmers write horrible code in any language.
Good programmers write good code in any language.

Your prejudice is showing.
