How you inherit the properties of two classes (not interfaces) in a child Java class. Where as those two parent classes are not related and not of any inheritance relationship between them.

4 Answers

My answer is, unlike other OO languages like C++ multiple inheritance is not possible in Java, and interfaces can be used to achieve this with specific implementation. The interviewer is not convinced with this. Less

The answer is composition inheritance. It's not as convenient as implementation inheritance (extends keyword) but creating an instance of the parent object and making the child manage/expose necessary members. Probably be a good idea to create an interface to keep things. Less

You would be using the Adapter Design Pattern.

I was not interested in the position right after the initial 2 minutes of the meeting. I asked panel to introduce themselves, on which the panel replied 'candidate should search on internet about the panel before the interview'. However, they gave their introduction later. Though there were some conceptual questions, it focused on by hearting methods available in java 8. which you do not need to. Everyone has IDE with suggestions. Then came the part about switching companies. They seemed to be more concern about candidate switching companies than discussing concepts, challenges and culture. During the interview process, the panel asked to switch on the camera, with their camera's turned off. This just showed the culture practiced in their specific department. All in all, more suitable for BSC IT candidates with not enough of intellectual and problem solving capabilities. And almost no emphasis on culture. This is for their Professional Services Group in Airoli Office. Less
