No offence. Hi Wheeler,

I do get your points, it’s just the C++ observer that I commented. No offence.

I think a lot of folks got sidetracked by that detail in the post; the point wasn't so much "How to implement an observer pattern", but "look how different the C and C++ implementations are" and "the C++ and Java implementations are closer to each other than to the C implementation". There are naturally better ways to implement the observer pattern in Java as well.
