I have this component, Price, with way too much redundant, conditional
branching (based on $productType) in just about all it’s functions.

I suppose I could create different price components,  one for each
$product type, and just do one switch() in my main controller to
decide which component to call, but that requires a switch() in my
main controller, which I’m not crazy about.

The OO approach would be to define an abstract class with different
implementation subclasses. I suppose I could brute force include() it
via bootstrap, then do all the instantiation myself. That's so raw
php'ish though.

Basically I need a factory pattern, but am not sure of the best way to
integrate it into a cake app.

Any suggestions?
