inherit class without parameterless constructor c# code example

Example: c# base class without empty constructor

class A
{
    public A(int x, int y)
    {
        // do something
    }
}

class A2 : A
{
    public A2() : base(1, 5)
    {
        // do something
    }

    public A2(int x, int y) : base(x, y)
    {
        // do something
      	// but no need to repeat the statements from the original constructor
    }

    // This would not compile:
    public A2(int x, int y)
    {
        // the compiler will look for a constructor A(), which doesn't exist
    }
}
