Message:

Instantiating Interfaces

Posted by Shaul Peleg on September 18, 2000 at 10:41 AM

Could someone please explain to me why the code
Runnable run = new Runnable() works? I used to believe that interfaces where implicitly abstract and therefore could not be instantiated; only implemented. Is Object somehow involved in this???

Thanks,
Shaul
