If you could write the construction code for the first version the way the
compiler sees it, you'd write this:
// Not legal, illustrates IL generated:
public class MyClass
{
private List < ImportantData > coll;
private string name;
public MyClass()
{
// No variable initializers here.
// Call the third constructor, shown below.
this ( 0 , "" ); // Not legal, illustrative only.
}
public MyClass( int initialCount)
{
// No variable initializers here.
