[Mono-list] Keyword this or base expected(CS1018)

[gennady wexler]

in constructor of your class:

class MyClass {
    public MyClass(Glade.XML gxml, Database database)
        : base(gxml, database) {
        // rest of your construction logic goes here
    }

you base class needs to be ready for the case if null objects were passed
and react accordingly.
