In C# a class can have How many Base Classes

Question

Plz Explain :- In C# a Class can have how many maximum number of base classes

Ranjit Powar · Answer

When you inherit class A in class B the members of class A except private members becomes the members of class B. This is the main motive of inheritance to reuse the code. When you inherit class B in class C then members of class B including the inherited members from class A becomes the members of class C. If it helps you accept it as correct answer.

Hey don't confuse two things Multiple inheritance: class A { } class B { } class C:AB { } Multilevel Inheritance: class A { } class B:A { } class C:B { } The first one is multiple inheritance which is not supported in c#

Thanks All For Their Valuable Answers... But if it is a Multi level Inheritance then ??? Like this. In Multilevel Inheritance a class can have more than one base class or not ?

Ranjit Powar · Answer

Multiple inheritance is not supported in C#. So class can have only one base class. If you want to achieve multiple inheritance you can achieve it by using interface. You can implements any number of interfaces in C#.

Ravi Patel · Answer

Hi Debasis a class can have only one base class . because c# does not support multiple inheritance.

Sandy Surwase · Answer

only one base class. Basically it seemed that both the .NET and Java designers did not allow multiple inheritance if you want more class's inheritance use interface
