Abstract classes and Interfaces plays a major role in making our solution design. I had some time to analyse the best fit for business scenarios and differences.
Interfaces vs Abstracts:
- Abstract classes specify the commonality in frame and function between multiple classes
- Interfaces provide a frame for multiple class.
- Abstract class contains member definition, Interface can only hold declaration.
- Methods in a interface should be always defined in the derived class, but its not mandatory in abstract class.
- Abstract classes can be used with classes which share same functionality
- Interfaces can be used with classes that share different functionalities but similar blueprint.
- Interfaces are used for dependency inversions and loose coupling
There is an interesting article from Microsoft regarding the same. Please refer https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/scsyfw1d(v=vs.71).aspx
