Why Java doesn't support multiple inheritance ?

• Multiple inheritance causes more problems and confusion than it solves
• The designers' extensive C++ experience taught them that multiple inheritance just wasn't worth the headache.
• Multiple interface inheritance still allows an object to inherit methods and to behave polymorphically on those methods.
  

For Example

Suppose java had multiple inheritance like below

public class Parent1 { public void method() { System.out.println("Call me - I'm your Parent"); } } public class Parent2 { public void method() { System.out.println("He is not. Call me - I'm your Parent"); } public class Child extends Parent1, Parent2 { public static void main(String args[]) { method();//Who's method should i call ? } }

Hence java doesn't support multiple inheritance.
