Code inspection: Redundant base constructor call

This inspection reports an explicit : base() call with no arguments when the compiler would generate the same base constructor call automatically.

Example

class Base
{
}
class Derived : Base
{
    public Derived() : base()
    {
    }
}
            

class Base
{
}
class Derived : Base
{
    public Derived()
    {
    }
}
            

The quick-fix removes the redundant : base() call.
