Multi-level Inheritance

Explore how multi-level inheritance allows classes in C++ to inherit data and functions through multiple levels, enhancing code reuse. Understand the lookup process for member functions in derived classes, and see how inheritance hierarchies work in practice with examples for clearer comprehension.

We'll cover the following...

If we want to inherit data members and member functions of the base class which is already inherited from another class, the concept of multilevel inheritance comes in. This contains a more hierarchical approach.

class parent
class child : public parent
class grandChild : public child

Example

Let’s take the example of Vehicle class which acts as a parent to Car class. Now Car ...
