This is forbidden by the source guidelines, due to some compilers (notably older G++ versions) not supporting it correctly. I'm wondering what you're trying to do that might require multiple inheritance. Not that I frown upon it (at least in the case of interfaces & abstract classes - the java & C# answer)... Usually a "containment" model is a good way to work around using multiple inheritance, if you feel that it's absolutely necessary. Dom
