Constructor (C# and JavaScript Cross Reference Guide)

General Info: Class Constructor

Constructors are called when you instantiate an object from a class. This is where you can initialize variables and put code you wish executed each time the class is created. When you initially set the member fields and properties of an object, you are initializing the state of the object. The state of an object is the values of all it's member fields and properties at a given time.

What is the syntax? Can you overload constructors? Is a special method name reserved for constructors?

C#:  "Constructors" Use class name In C#, a constructor is called whenever a class or struct is created. A constructor is a method with the same name as the class with no return value and you can overload the constructor. If you do not create a constructor, C# will create an implicit constructor that initializes all member fields to their default values. Constructors can execute at two different times. Static constructors are executed by the CLR before any objects are instantiated. Regular constructors are executed when you create an object. Syntax Example: public class Cyborg { public string CyborgName; //Constructor. public Cyborg(string pName) { CyborgName = pName; } }  C# Constructors (Use class name)
