It's true that constructors are never called explicitly as you would call an ordinary method. Instead instance constructors are called in conjunction with the 'new' operator which creates a new instance of the type in question. If a class or struct has a static constructor it is called by the runtime once and once only before any instances are created or any static members are referenced. Within a class an instance constructor can call its base class constructor using the 'base' keyword. Within a class or struct it is also possible for one instance constructor to call another using the 'this' keyword. This is known as constructor chaining.

Yes Constructor are never called explicitly. it automatically called when you create instance of any class or structure. If you didn't define a constructor in your class it will be automatically supplied with the default constructor. But if you defined a constructor with parameters the supplied default constructor will be removed and you won't be able to use it until you explicitly define it in your class. you can call base class constructor explicitly using this and base keyword in child class constructor only... public Test(int data) : base() { } hope this will help you.
