Why inner classes?

At this point you’ve seen a lot of syntax and semantics describing the way inner classes work, but this doesn’t answer the question of why they exist. Why did Sun go to so much trouble to add this fundamental language feature? Feedback

Typically, the inner class inherits from a class or implements an interface, and the code in the inner class manipulates the outer class object that it was created within. So you could say that an inner class provides a kind of window into the outer class. Feedback

A question that cuts to the heart of inner classes is this: If I just need a reference to an interface, why don’t I just make the outer class implement that interface? The answer is “If that’s all you need, then that’s how you should do it.” So what is it that distinguishes an inner class implementing an interface from an outer class implementing the same interface? The answer is that you can’t always have the convenience of interfaces—sometimes you’re working with implementations. So the most compelling reason for inner classes is: Feedback

Each inner class can independently inherit from an implementation. Thus, the inner class is not limited by whether the outer class is already inheriting from an implementation.

Without the ability that inner classes provide to inherit—in effect—from more than one concrete or abstract class, some design and programming problems would be intractable. So one way to look at the inner class is as the rest of the solution of the multiple-inheritance problem. Interfaces solve part of the problem, but inner classes effectively allow “multiple implementation inheritance.” That is, inner classes effectively allow you to inherit from more than one non-interface.
