Ways to do: interfaces. Why is doesn't: naming reasons, meaning uniqueness of methods ;)

\\Java doesn't support multiple inheritance Class A { public void B() { } } Class C { public void B() { } } Class D extends A,C { \\now class D don't know from which class it has to call the method B(). because both extended classes have same method B(). \\This creates ambiguity. } To support multiple inheritance Java uses concept of interfaces and many more. Hope this will clear your doubt.
