In object-oriented programming, the practice of allowing a class to have two or more direct superior classes, and inheriting the properties of them all.
A form of inheritance whereby classes inherit their definitions from more than one class. See also primary direct superior class and linearize.
The ability of a class to inherit from more than one base class. That is, the derived class inherits all public and protected members from all of its base classes. Compare to single inheritance.
a type of inheritance that permits a class to have more than one superclass and to inherit features from all ancestors
Inheritance from more than one direct superclass. See also single inheritance.
(1) An object-oriented programming technique implemented in C++ through derivation, in which the derived class inherits members from more than one base class. (2) The structuring of inheritance relationships among classes so a derived class can use the attributes, relationships, and functions used by more than one base class. See inheritance.
In object-oriented programming, the ability of a class to have more than one superclass--to inherit from different sources and thus combine separately-defined behaviors in a single class. Objective-C doesn't support multiple inheritance.
Multiple inheritance allows a single subclass to extend more than one superclass.
semantic variation of generalization in which a type may have more than one supertype. Contrast: single inheritance.
Where a class¤ is simulaneously derived from two (or more) parent classes¤¤, and inherits properties from each.
The capability of a class of objects to inherit attributes and behavior from more than one superclass.
Multiple inheritance refers to a feature of object-oriented programming languages in which a class can inherit behaviors and features from more than one superclass. This contrasts with single inheritance, where a class inherits from only one superclass.
