Message:

Don't use "extends"

Posted by Ivan Villanueva on June 15, 2001 at 10:55 AM

Hola Javier,

if you want to use in a class objects of other class, you don't need to use the "extends" keyword. In the second class you can use variables like:
A a1 = new A() ;
A a2 = new A() ;
...
Or you can use an array like:
A[] aArray = new A[2] ;
aArray[0] = new A() ;
aArray[1] = new A() ;

Hasta la vista
