Does c# really support multiple inheritance. People say it supports multiple inheritance in the form of interfaces ? But I dont think so
In the literal sense, it does not support multiple inheritance. It can implement multiple interfaces, which offer polymorphic behaviour, so get you some benefits of multiple inheritance. However you get no base behaviour.
If you need the base behaviour a common tactic is for a base class to implement the interfaces and for derived classes to override this implementation where required.
I have yet to run into the need for multiple inheritance, I don’t think C# suffers for the lack of it.
