Re: Extending more than one base class....

Mike,

Can you just contain one or both of the classes in your class?  That is
almost always the best way to extend a real class anyway (you do not
indicate if these are abstract).

Otherwise, I would create two classes, one that extends each class.  Then,
if it was really necessary to present one class that extended them both,
create a third class that contains these two classes and implements all of
the public methods of the two classes and passes through the method calls.

Hope this helps.

All,

I need to extend more than one base class for a specific class.  Both
classes are from commercial packages, so I do not have the source for
them.
I can not use an interface for either of them.  Obviously, I can't extend
both of the classes for this class.  Does anyone have any ideas to work
around this Java restriction?

Thanks

Mike
