❔ Creating a class that takes a Logger for both the class and its base class

I'm trying to figure out the best way to use Loggers in my app.

All of the documentation that I've seen says to use Dependency Injection for this, and do something like:

public class MyClass
{
  private readonly ILogger<MyClass> _logger;
  public MyClass(ILogger<MyClass> logger)
  {
    _logger = logger;
  }
}

public class MyClass
{
  private readonly ILogger<MyClass> _logger;
  public MyClass(ILogger<MyClass> logger)
  {
    _logger = logger;
  }
}

However, what I can't figure out is how I would do this when I have a

MyBaseClass

MyBaseClass

and a

MyClass

MyClass

which is a subclass of

MyBaseClass

MyBaseClass

. I can't pass the same object from one constructor to the other.

Thanks
