how to inherit from multiple class

Question

Let\'s say i have a griffon object that needs to be part of the felidae and bird class.
How do i do it ?
I can only make it inherit from 1 class at a time...

Answer 1

You can dynamically create a class at runtime and choose the methods of each parent class to inherit. Have a look at the NeXT runtime's documentation here about dynamically creating classes. I did this once just for fun, but I didn't get very far as it gets incredibly messy very quickly.

Edit

It gets more difficult though, because there can only be one superclass, otherwise the keyword super becomes ambiguous.
