How java support multiple inheritance by the use of interface.

Question

As per my understanding, Interface is just having the signatures of the methods not the implementation.
So How java support multiple inheritance by the use of interface?
Answer 1: we can institate interface reference by its implemented
class.
          ����� interface inf...
          ����� class aa implements inf..
          ����� class bb implements inf....
           Now, inf i = new aa();
           inf i = new bb();
Answer 2: We can extends as many interface as we want in the
single
           interface.
           i.e. interface infFirst....
           interface infSecond....
           interface infThird....
           Now ,
           interface ingMulti extends infFrist, infThird...
By above two answers its not prity clear as per the multiple inheritance in C or C++.
           i.e.
           class first{
           method abc();....}
           class second{
           method bbc()......}
           class multi::first::second{
           we can call to abc();.....as well as bbc();
-Please give your important suggstion on the same.(Hope I explain it well.)

Answer 1

The keyword implement is used only for interfaces not
for abstract class. If i am wrong correct me.I believe your right, but I will double check.
As for the multiple inheritence think about the following code:
class Animal {
    //  Animal generic stuff in this class
interface Eat {
    //  Generic stuff that models eating behavior
interface Runs {
    //  generic methods that model running behavior
public class Horse extends Animal implements Eat, Runs {
    //  Stuff specific to a horse
}The Animal class is generic but has stuff in it common to all animals.
The Eat interface models behavior that is generic to eating, all living things have to eat something to survive. Herbavore are different from carnivores.
The Runs interface models generic behavior to running, such as speed. A cheeta definately runs faster than a human.
This brings us to the Horse class. It extends the Animal class because it "is-a" animal, and it implements the eat and runs interface because they are behaviors a horse has.
I hope that helps.
Extending an abstract class is the same as extending a regular class with the exception you MUST override all abstract methods in the abstract class. Thats not too difficult but I believe when designing classes, designing an abstract can be more diffecult than modeling the base class, and generic behaviors in interfaces. JMO.
