If I inherit from a base class and want to pass something from the constructor of the inherited class to the constructor of the base class, how do I do that?

For example,

If I inherit from the Exception class I want to do something like this:

class MyExceptionClass : Exception { public MyExceptionClass(string message, string extraInfo) { //This is where it's all falling apart base(message); } } 

Basically what I want is to be able to pass the string message to the base Exception class.
