Hi guys, I find myself using Inheritance through Interfaces more and more. Is this ok or is this as bad as Class inheritance?

Anything can be abused, of course. For example, a chain of interfaces extending other interfaces that went four or five deep would definitely make me raise an eyebrow. But in its place, inheritance of interfaces is a perfectly good tool in the toolbox.

Kewl! So I can safely conclude that inheritance, interface or class when it goes down too deep could be a bad thing huh? Thanks!

Anything that makes code unnecessarily hard to understand is a bad thing, and excessively deep inheritance is one of those things.
