Can I call a constructor from another constructor (do constructor chaining) in C++?

Question

As a C# developer I\'m used to running through constructors:

class Test {
    public Test() {
        DoSomething();

If I understand your question correctly, you're asking if you can call multiple constructors in C++?

If that's what you're looking for, then no - that is not possible.

You certainly can have multiple constructors, each with unique argument signatures, and then call the one you want when you instantiate a new object.

You can even have one constructor with defaulted arguments on the end.

But you may not have multiple constructors, and then call each of them separately.
