- Sub: Re: Re: Multiple Inheritance
-
- There seems to be a couple of serious problem with the proposed restriction
- that multiple inheritance be limited to calsses with no common ancestor. 1)
- you may not be the writer of the inherited classes. 2) this would eliminate
- the possibility of using MI if you implement a smalltalk like class library
- since everything would be a descendant of Object.
