Thread: Do constructors get inherited?

I mean do they? It doesn't seem that they do, that's just silly

Code:

class Human : public Parent {
public:
	Human(string name);


private:


};

Human::Human(string name) {
	Name = name;
}

Human is a derived class of Parent. parent is technically a human as well.

I get this error:
[error]
Compiling...
human.cpp
C:\human.cpp(162) : error C2512: 'Parent' : no appropriate default constructor available
Error executing cl.exe.

human.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
[/error]

that is really silly, I mean more silly than silly can possibly be!
