Overloaded constructors are implemented with the constructor keyword.
C#
public class Service
{
private readonly IRepository _repository;
public Service(IRepository repository)
{
_repository = repository;
}
public Service(IRepository repository, ILogger logger) : this(repository)
{
logger.Log("Hello");
}
}
Kotlin
class Service(
private val repository: Repository
) {
constructor(repository: Repository, logger: Logger) : this(repository) {
logger.log("Hello")
}
}
Note: only the primary constructor can declare properties with val/var.
Note: overloaded constructors must call the primary constructor.
