C# Have a constructor call a constructor - constructor overloading

If you are a beginner C# programmer; especially coming from the VB/VB.net world, this could throw you if you do not know how. In VB, you can call a constructor from within another constructor by using me.New(arguments) statement.

In C#, you add the :this(arguments) to the constructor, and leave its body blank.

So:

public class ReportGenerator
(
   public ReportGenerator(String A, String B, String C)
   {
      // actual constructor code goes here
   }
   // overloaded constructor, only two arguments
   // String C can be passed as String.Empty, or a default Value "value"
   public ReportGenerator(String A, String B)
      :this(A, B, YourDefaultValueForStringC)
   {
   }
   // another overloaded constructor, only one argument
   // Send one additional default argument, to the constructor above.
   public ReportGenerator(String A)
      :this(A, YourDefaultValueForStringB)
   {
   }

}
