Hello, I know you can call a base class constructor using ": base" after the new constructor signature. I.e.:
public class A { int i; public A (int _i) { i=_i; } } public class B : A { public B (int a, int b) : base (a+b) // Calls A constructor with _i as _a+_b { } } But what happens if you should made some more complicated that cannot be done in that way??? For example: public class C : B { public C () { MyDataStruct data = GetDataFromTheDatabase (); base ( data.a, data.b ); // This will not work, indeed, but illustrates the idea... } } This is a question more focused on C# than in mono itself, but I hope not to disturb no one doing it here since the list has not very high trafic.
