c#.net doesn’t support multiple inheritance through classes

Question

Why c#.net doesn’t support multiple inheritance through classes ? with example program.

Ankit Sharma · Answer

Hi Ashok, C# doesnot support multiple inheritance due to diamond problem. The Diamond problem is an ambiguity that arises when two classes B and C inherit from Class A and class D inherits from both B and C. If a method in D calls a method defined in A(and does not override the method), and B and C have overridden that method differently, then from which class does it inherit: B or C? You can find morw details about diamond problem here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_inheritance#The_diamond_problem http://www.lambdafaq.org/what-about-the-diamond-problem/ You can also find some great answers in these links. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/995255/why-is-multiple-inheritance-not-allowed-in-java-or-c https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/01a995ea-9e06-4fa4-bdbb-682243f386a8/why-multiple-inheritance-of-classes-in-not-supported-in-c?forum=csharplanguage Hope this helps
