Unexpected character '\u002E'

Answer 1

Remove \u002E and you're done!

002E is a full stop or just a dot ('.').

Your code must look like:

base.ctor();

It could happen because of transmitting a program source through different websites/programs with unsupported or broken encoding.

Moreover, ctor is a shortcut for constructor. Make sure you call constructor of base class correctly.

public class Animal
{
    public Animal()
    {
    }
}

public class Cat : Animal 
{
    // next line will be converted to
    // base.ctor() by compiler

    public class Cat() : base()
    {
    }
}

Try to remove base.ctor(); in order to make your class work. I think it should work because your base class has no parameters in constructor.
