Quite the opposite. The only non-kludgey way to impl
Hi Michael,
Well, if it works for you, go for it. I think it's a bit weird and
extremely unintuitive to inherit from an interface, and I wouldn't have
expected it was even permitted, but it turns out it's even documented
(apparantly it only works for constants):

Hi Michael,
I have to disagree.

How do people feel about the use of Java-ist "Constants" interfaces like:
interface Sql_Constants
{
const SELECT = 1;
const FROM = 2;
const WHERE = 3;
const NOT = 4;
}
where the objective is to permit any class that needs these constants
to access them u
