How does C++ support concepts like interfaces and abstract classes compared to Java?

Direct support through language keywords
Only indirect support
Through standard library functions
Not supported at all

The correct answer is: Only indirect support

C++ supports interfaces and abstract classes through indirect support in the form of abstract base classes and pure virtual functions. While Java directly supports these concepts through language keywords, C++ can still achieve the same functionality through different means. These options may seem incorrect because they either state that C++ does not support these concepts at all (option D) or that it only supports them through a specific method (option A and C). However, B is the most accurate choice as it acknowledges the indirect support provided by C++ for interfaces and abstract classes.
