Does C# support multiple inheritance?

Question

A colleague and I are having a bit of an argument over multiple inheritance. I\'m saying it\'s not supported and he\'s saying it is. So, I thought that I\'d ask the brainy

Answer 1

Like Java (which is what C# was indirectly derived from), C# does not support multiple inhertance.

Which is to say that class data (member variables and properties) can only be inherited from a single parent base class. Class behavior (member methods), on the other hand, can be inherited from multiple parent base interfaces.

Some experts, notably Bertrand Meyer (considered by some to be one of the fathers of object-oreiented programming), think that this disqualifies C# (and Java, and all the rest) from being a "true" object-oriented language.
