If you override a virtual function in class inherited from a standard control, does that not by default inclde a call to the base function??

public class BaseClass
{
    private void DoMyThing()
    {
        //Required stuff

        //either do your code before calling DoSomething or 
        //after depending on the logic requirements
        DoSomething();
    }
    public virtual void DoSomething()
    {
        //Only optional stuff
    }
}

public class DerivedClass : BaseClass
{
    public override void DoSomething()
    {
        // More stuff...

        //the base will do its thing either before this or after
        //if required, else if its optional then call the base here
    }
}
