[Scare quotes throughout in the following.] I suppose that a "good" definition is a definition that serves its purpose in a given context. It may be difficult to arrive at a "good" definition in the sense of "correct" or "universally accepted". Consider that Java multiple inheritance through interface methods is "only" behavioral. No state can be inherited, because all fields in an interface are automatically static. In comparison, Scala traits offer "true" multiple inheritance, including state, and also allow accessing the object that implements the trait (via the self reference). Because of these differences, the use of default methods is more restricted. It would not be possible to implement class-dependent, stateful cross-cutting concerns like Loggable using them, for example. Default methods were specifically designed for API extension, as shown in the tutorial examples. "True" multiple inheritance has never been a design goal. So while Java may not have "true" multiple inheritance, it certainly has some form of multiple inheritance. Why not call it "behavioral multiple inheritance" ? But then, who really cares? I myself, like you, am perfectly happy to simply assert that Java has multiple inheritance, plain and simple. All the rest is hairsplitting on a scale much too fine for any introductory Java course. -- Sebastian
