Java: Default Methods and Multiple Inheritance Rules
Answer
The implementing class must override the conflicting method.
When a class implements multiple interfaces with the same default method, Java requires the class to provide its own implementation. This ensures clarity and specific behavior resolution. For example, if 'Sellable' and 'Returnable' both have a default 'process' method, the implementing class must define 'process' itself.
