Internal Refactoring

For my 10-day visit to Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Hakone and Chiba (my brother-in-law's wedding), I needed to refactor my internal progamming a bit to avoid OutOfMemoryExceptions.

// This class is package protected to avoid 
// external programs messing up.
class Brain {

public void handleEvent(MeetNewPersonEvent event) {
  ...
  if (getLocation().equals(Locations.JAPAN)) {
    fireEvent(new BowEvent(event));
  }
}

public void handleEvent(BowEvent event) {
    // Avoid infinite loop.  The problem is the 
    // 'esteemed higher' part, the person
    // for whom you're bowing may think the same.
    if (event.isPersonEsteemedHigher() 
        && !event.hasBowedTooMuch()) {
      bow();
    } else {
      nod();
    }
}

protected void bow() {
  lookSincere();
  smile();
  bendForward();
}

I also needed to reprogram the eating subroutines.

public void handleEvent(FeelingHungryEvent event) {
...
  if (getLocation().equals(Locations.JAPAN)) {
     // This was a tricky one to handle, 
     // the implementation is left 
     // as an exercise to the reader.
     uploadChopsticksRoutine();
  }
}

The RunForTrainEvent and especially the WaitForTrainEvent could be canceled out since public transportation is much better than the location I originally wrote it for (Belgium).

public void handleEvent(RunForTrainEvent event) {
  if (getLocation().equals(Locations.JAPAN)) {
     stopRunning();
     relax();
     Thread.sleep(5*Timer.MINUTE);
  }
}

Finally, I needed to handle the RunningNoseEvent (extends HasColdEvent) better.

public void handleEvent(RunningNoseEvent event) {
...
  if (getLocation().equals(Locations.JAPAN)) {
    // Blowing your nose in public is NOT DONE 
    // in Japan.  This is considered 
    // a bit the same as burping.  
    // Public humiliation is your part when
    // this is not checked.
    dipNose();
  } else {
    blowNose();
  }
}

protected Location getLocation() {
  ...
  if (isCurrentLocationUnknown()) {
    if (bodyTallerThanMostOthers() 
            && friendlyPeople() && metroEvery2Minutes()
            && dressCode.equals(Dresscodes.COSTUME)
            && eatingCode.equals(EatingCodes.SHOPSTICKS)) {
       return Locations.JAPAN;
    }
  }
}

} // End class
