Types of Inheritance in PHP.

[henrywinsett]

Inheritance means established programming protocol and PHP uses this protocol in the object model. This protocol affects various objects and classes related to one another. PHP supports only single inheritance. In PHP there are no multiple inheritance.

Similar to Java, PHP supports single inheritance. There is no multiple inheritance in php. Single inheritance means a class can extend only one parent class.

Inheritance is a well-established programming principle, and PHP makes use of this principle in its object model. This principle will affect the way many classes and objects relate to one another.

Inheritance which are supported by PHP are:
1. Single level
2. hierarchical level
3. Multilevel


Multiple and Hybrid it does not support. It does support multiple inheritance but through use of interface not directly.

Inheritance is a mechanism that extends and existing class. Inheriting a class would mean creating a new class with all functionality of the existing class in addition to some more. The created class is called as a subclass of the parent class. Parent is a keyword which we use to access members of a parent class. Inheritance is usually defined by using the keyword “Extend”. $this is used a reference to the calling object. Inheritance avoids redundancy of code. 1. Single level 2. hierarchical level 3. Multilevel
