Hello,

i'am a beginner in c# ... having a few problems with classes

Cld u pls help me out

code is as follows

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Error : Base Class is inaccessible due to it's protection level
--------------------------------------------------------------------

public class MybaseClass
{
    private MyBaseClass()
    {
    }

    public MyBaseClass(string temp)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("non-dafault constructor of base class called : {0}", temp);
    }
}

public class MyDerivedClass : MyBaseClass
{
    private MyDerivedClass()
    {
    }

    public MyDerivedClass(string temp): base("default base name")
    {
        Console.WriteLine("non-default constructor of derived class : {0}", temp);
    }
}

================================================== ===================
static void Main()
{
    MyDerivedClass myDerObj = new MyDerivedClass("temp");
}
================================================== ===================

when you use
MyDerivedClass myDerObj = new MyDerivedClass();
in Main();you are constructing your class with default constructor that you declare as private make your default constructor public or give parameter to your constructor(for using overload methods)
!!!in yor code I didn't see any derivation
(public class MyDerivedClass :MybaseClass is right)

thnx for the reply mehdi

did a few typos there while posting.... my apologies

MyDerivedClass : MyBaseClass

did use MyDerivedClass myDerObj = new MyDerivedClass("derived");

still the same error

Hi again
Kaliste
in your derived class you have a default constructer like below
---------------
private MyDerivedClass()
    {
    }
--------------
but compiler compile it as below
---------------
private MyDerivedClass() :base()
    {
    }
--------------
that means your default constructor in the drived class uses default constructer
in base class(for loading methods and .. in base class) and because you declare your default constructer as private
it is inaccessible and the error occures
you should declare your default constructer in baseclass as public or protected
