I would write the following block of code (from the whole thing) ��� <cfcase value="dangerous"> <cfif arguments.animal.getFoodType() is "meat"> <cfset lockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> <cfset arguments.animal.eat("meat pellets") /> <cfset unlockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> <cfelseif arguments.animal.getFoodType() is "veggie"> <cfset lockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> <cfset arguments.animal.eat("veggie pellets") /> <cfset unlockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> </cfif> </cfcase>
as �� <cfcase value="dangerous">�� �� ��� <cfset lockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> � ��� ��� <cfif arguments.animal.getFoodType() is "meat"> ��� ��� ��� <cfset arguments.animal.eat("meat pellets") /> ��������� <cfelseif arguments.animal.getFoodType() is "veggie"> ��� ��� ��� <cfset arguments.animal.eat("veggie pellets") /> � ��� ��� </cfif>�� �� ��� <cfset unlockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> �� </cfcase>
Sounds reasonable. But from this sample I don't know whether lockAnimal() and unlockAnimal() and getFoodType() might cause some sort of deadlock. If I knew it couldn't, I might code it your way. If it could potentailly, or if I didn't know, or if I didn't control those functions, I might code it as:
���<cfcase value="dangerous"> � ��� �<cfset FoodPellets = "undefined pellets" /> �� ��� <cfif arguments.animal.getFoodType() is "meat"> � ��� ��� <cfset FoodPellets = "meat pellets" /> ������ <cfelseif arguments.animal.getFoodType() is "veggie"> � ��� ��� <cfset FoodPellets = "veggie pellets" /> �� ��� </cfif> �� ��� <cfset lockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> � ��� ��� <cfset arguments.animal.eat(FoodPellets) /> �� ��� <cfset unlockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> �� </cfcase>
...or, if the choice is only meat or veggie:
���<cfcase value="dangerous"> �� ��� <cfif arguments.animal.getFoodType() is "meat"> � ��� ��� <cfset FoodPellets = "meat pellets" /> ������ <cfelse arguments.animal.getFoodType() is "veggie"> � ��� ��� <cfset FoodPellets = "veggie pellets" /> �� ��� </cfif> �� ��� <cfset lockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> � ��� ��� <cfset arguments.animal.eat(FoodPellets) /> �� ��� <cfset unlockAnimal(arguments.animal) /> �� </cfcase>
