>Why doesn't Java support multiple inheritance?

1. It has interfaces which gives much of the ability at lighter weight..

2. Java originally was intended for set top boxes. That is too heavyweight a 
feature.

3. Study Eiffel. implementing it is quite tricky, especially when you get name  
clashes.

you might see it in Java 11 or so, or whatever language inherits the Java 
mantle.
