multiple inheritance in java

[pawanspace]

Hi All,
I have read in books and also every where that each class in java is subclass of java.lang.Object. Then how it's able to extend any other class. becuase what I know that multiple inheritance is not allowed in java

It is done implicitly. That means you still have one more chance to do it explicitly :)

An example of multiple inheritance is

public class Test extends Foo, Bar // illegal! 
{...}

Further, implicitly means that the compiler makes the extension for you, in this case.

So technically, it would look like this

public class Foo extends Object 
{...}

public class Bar extends Foo 
{...}
