In java multiple inheritance is done by extending a super class & implementing an interface to a sub class. I wanted to know why java does not supports pure multiple inheritance which is possible in C++? Why there is a need for an interface. Can anybody help me to clear my doubt?...
Thanks in advance...

Its to avoid the ambiguity that may arise due to virtual inheritance

Keep in mind that C++ and Java are two different languages, even though their ideas are very similar.
Thus, you cannot compare the orange and apple directly, just like why English supports present/past/future tenses in verbs while Chinese does not.
