I'm about to use a goto statement

Question

Save me from raptor death - is there any better way to handle this kind of structure?

while(condition) {
    $this->phase1();
    $this->phase2();
    $this->phase3();
    $this->phase4();
}

Throughout either one of those methods, the condition could be met. IMMEDIATELY after the condition is met, the loop MUST exit. If I could call break; inside of phase2(); for example, I wouldn't need a goto statement (but of course, that would throw an error).

Answer 1

Return a boolean to execute each stage until successful.

while (condition) {
    if ($this->phase1() || $this->phase2() || $this->phase3() || $this->phase4()) {
        // Success!
    }
}
