This really looks a lot like
$ cat CppImplementation.h
class CppImplementation : public JavaInterface
{
   public:
     void doIt():
}

Are there plans in the pipe for allowing this?  It seems like a
pre-processor run could go through and check if c++ classes are
extending java ones, and do some parsing work to re-phrase them to be
java files.  Multiple inheritance wouldn't work that way, but for
simple things it seems like it could be done.  Will it be?
