multiple inheritance

Consider defining interfaces to achieve an effect similar to that of multiple inheritance.

Specifies the most general representation of a pointer to a member of a class to be one that uses multiple inheritance .

Perl supports multiple inheritance, though two or more parents are rarely seen in practice.

Classes that serve as base classes in a multiple-inheritance hierarchy ordinarily should define their destructors to be virtual.

Since . NET does not support multiple inheritance, this constraint limits where Enterprise Services can be utilized.

The Java language doesn't support multiple inheritance, but you can come awfully close with a couple of @Delegates, as shown in Listing 8.

My hunch is that this could get tricky in practice once you deal with custom classes and multiple inheritance.

Unfortunately, tossing out private and multiple inheritance has cost us dearly in terms of code reuse.

Another approach to the Expression Problem is multiple inheritance, in which one subclass can extend many superclasses.

When we fast-forward to the Java language, we perceive that multiple inheritance is just as flawed as private inheritance.

The former is more advantageous, 'cause when you are going for multiple inheritance. . . the only interface can help.

They are comparable to C multiple inheritance constructs but omit the nasty side-effect known as the diamond syndrome.

Using multiple inheritance in C could lead to the problem of multiple copies of a base class for a particular multiply-inheriting class.

However, multiple inheritance being used only for interface implementation was thought to alleviate this problem somewhat.

Using Multiple Interfaces - Multiple inheritance is not possible in C# using classes; however, you can implement multiple interfaces.

With modules, you can get some of the benefits of multiple inheritance without the sticky complications.

Types can satisfy many interfaces at once, without the complexities of traditional multiple inheritance.

Multiple inheritance supports a much richer inheritance hierarchy for the problems that require it.

Virtual base classes offer a way to save space and avoid ambiguities in class hierarchies that use multiple inheritance.

Because Python supports multiple inheritance, abstraction can be taken to a level of complexity that is quite unhealthy.

The Java founders eliminated multiple inheritance to address those complications.

Scala supports single inheritance, not multiple inheritance.

You can think of mix-ins as multiple inheritance without the multiple-inheritance headaches.

Java also eliminates the operator overloading and multiple inheritance features of C .

On the other hand, allowing for multiple inheritance in a programming language results in tremendous semantic complexity.

Multiple inheritance, on the other hand, was commonly held as a necessary element of object-oriented programming.

The use of templates and multiple inheritance makes the library small and flexible.

For example, a constraint may disallow multiple inheritance, or it may require that a class must have a particular type of attribute.

A parent class to extend function from (plus any "mix-in" classes to simulate multiple inheritance)

Class (resembles a managed class shape, except that it can have multiple inheritance relationships)
