	// constructors, e.g. when a class represents a database connection, and it is
	// desired to establish the connection when you create a new instance.
	//
	// I know that there have been discussions on this on StackOverflow & co., but
	// the so-far mentioned counter arguments (such as: doesn't work as expected
