Hi All,

Is it compalsory to impliment all the methods
defined in the interface by the derived class.

If you want to instantiate object of the class, yes.
if you don't, you can have an abstract class.

Yes. Otherwise, you will get a compile error. The implementation can
be empty, and do nothing (unless you need a return value), but you have to
have an implementation.

Hello a,

it depends on your project and used methodology
for example if u master TDD, then using interfaces is rather usable, because
very often you need to "mock" your method calls
